Our stay was very good. Room was clean and breakfast was delicious. Staff was friendly and helpful. WiFi was not very good but it really isn’t good unless you are at an expensive restaurant. Water was available to fill our bottles which is a plus since you can’t drink the water. Also there is a bar with decent prices for beer.

A friend and I spent 3 nights at the Hotel Coloma. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our room was clean and quite large, with 3 twin beds. There was a refrigerator and microwave in the room. Filtered water was available in the common areas, along with a pitcher and glasses in our room. Everything was clean and breakfast was good. We left very early for tours two days and were provided with breakfast-to-go. It was a short walk to restaurants, shopping, and the port.

This was a home away from home ! The staff were so welcoming, friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, comfortable and the quietest we had in all of galapagos, despite being in a prime location. All the amenities were fantastic, including the breakfast, the pool and the beverages available on site at any time. Overall, cannot recommend this place enough!!

We truly enjoyed our stay at Coloma! The facility was very clean, the staff were friendly, and the daily turn down service was very much appreciated. The honesty bar was a nice way to allow us access to bottled water, beer/wine, and other beverages at anytime. Front desk staff were very helpful in arranging airport transfers and providing information on other island activities.

Great hotel, mid-range for Galapagos. The owner is wonderful and is a dentist whose office is attached to the hotel. Either he or staff member was always immediately available. They warned us not to drink tap water and made clean water easily available, delivered to our room every day and available in lobby. He also had drinks and beach towels available for us to borrow or buy, all on the honor system; we definitely felt welcome. Most of the hotel is outside with trees, birds, etc. just outside our room. We had a quiet room until the last day when there was construction due to sudden damage to part of the hotel...totally unforeseen and not a problem for us. The hotel is very convenient and we could walk to the beach, the National Park, Darwin Center and lots of restaurants and shops.

We wouldn’t stay here again. A few reasons why… first they advertise for serval things that they do not provide like laundry service and bike rental (it’s even written on the wall that they have these services). Additionally, this is advertised as a hotel on Expedia but it’s actually a hostel (the logo on the pillows says “hostal”). Our “King” bed was two twins pushed together. The shower was awful, you either had boiling hot water or ice cold water coming from the shower. Lastly, my wife and I saw two roaches during our stay. One was on the first floor and a couple of days later one in our room! The two good things about this place is the location and the breakfast that they provide.

The staff were as friendly as can be. For example, for the daily change of bath towels, the cleaning lady didn’t bang on our door and then enter one second later. Rather, she gently tapped on the door a couple times, waiting for me to answer the door.

More hostel than hotel, but therein lies the charm. The location is a short walk to everything. The complimentary breakfast is like being at a family members house when they make breakfast for you as a guest. You get what they serve you, but delicious. The staff desires you to be happy above all else. From what I could tell there were two women that did everything, but with a smile and always checking in with to make sure you were satisfied. For the price, it’s excellent! The rooster made sure you were up on time for your tour everyday!

They kept a couple of our bags for us for 2 days when we went to Isabela so we didn’t have to take it all! We had to leave before breakfast started and without asking they had a breakfast to go packed and ready for us! These ladies are great!

Great hotel, mid-range for Galapagos. The owner is wonderful and is a dentist whose office is attached to the hotel. Either he or staff member was always immediately available. They warned us not to drink tap water and made clean water easily available, delivered to our room every day and available in lobby. He also had drinks and beach towels available for us to borrow or buy, all on the honor system; we definitely felt welcome. Most of the hotel is outside with trees, birds, etc. just outside our room. We had a quiet room until the last day when there was construction due to sudden damage to part of the hotel...totally unforeseen and not a problem for us. The hotel is very convenient and we could walk to the beach, the National Park, Darwin Center and lots of restaurants and shops.

More hostel than hotel, but therein lies the charm. The location is a short walk to everything. The complimentary breakfast is like being at a family members house when they make breakfast for you as a guest. You get what they serve you, but delicious. The staff desires you to be happy above all else. From what I could tell there were two women that did everything, but with a smile and always checking in with to make sure you were satisfied. For the price, it’s excellent! The rooster made sure you were up on time for your tour everyday!

Hotel Coloma is in the Main Street with easy access to shops and Pier. Staff were friendly and the breakfast, fresh and delicious with your choice of eggs whatever way you want them. We needed 1 night prior to cruise departing - this was perfect.

Great hotel, mid-range for Galapagos. The owner is wonderful and is a dentist whose office is attached to the hotel. Either he or staff member was always immediately available. They warned us not to drink tap water and made clean water easily available, delivered to our room every day and available in lobby. He also had drinks and beach towels available for us to borrow or buy, all on the honor system; we definitely felt welcome. Most of the hotel is outside with trees, birds, etc. just outside our room. We had a quiet room until the last day when there was construction due to sudden damage to part of the hotel...totally unforeseen and not a problem for us. The hotel is very convenient and we could walk to the beach, the National Park, Darwin Center and lots of restaurants and shops.

Our stay was very good. Room was clean and breakfast was delicious. Staff was friendly and helpful. WiFi was not very good but it really isn’t good unless you are at an expensive restaurant. Water was available to fill our bottles which is a plus since you can’t drink the water. Also there is a bar with decent prices for beer.

This was a home away from home ! The staff were so welcoming, friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, comfortable and the quietest we had in all of galapagos, despite being in a prime location. All the amenities were fantastic, including the breakfast, the pool and the beverages available on site at any time. Overall, cannot recommend this place enough!!

非常好的服务，虽然用英语沟通会有少许的障碍，但服务人员的热情和努力可以弥补一切，早餐很好，尤其是可颂面包。虽然价格不低，但你知道，这是在加拉帕格斯

Amazing stay at Coloma! All the ladies were friendly and helpful with helping us find our way around, giving suggestions of things to do and the area to go eat! The breakfasts were wonderful! They kept a couple of our bags for us for 2 days when we went to Isabela so we didn’t have to take it all! We had to leave before breakfast started and without asking they had a breakfast to go packed and ready for us! These ladies are great!

quirky simple hotel. Owner helped us carry the luggage up the stairs. it's on Baltra Ave near more locally owned businesses but close to the Malecon (walkway along the shore) and all the tourist places. Very friendly staff (Sandra & Magali) who cooked a nice breakfast for us every morning. Good reasonably priced seafood meal down the street at the Rustica. We stopped in the Bike shop also down the street about renting E-bikes and received some more restaurant suggestions. People said Buenas Dias to us in the street.

Highly recommend this stay at Coloma Hotel in the sGalápagos! Señor Coloma was friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived, sharing great local insights, arranging tours, and going out of his way to make us feel at home. The stay was stable and comfortable with good facilities. Delicious breakfasts each morning were a wonderful bonus!
