An incredible hotel within walking distance of all of the action of town, but in a quieter area. The owner was so helpful and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was great too.

We stayed 5 nights total with a 2 night intermission while we were on Isabela. Eliana was awesome, keeping our main luggage safe and arranging for our laundry to be cleaned while we were away. She packed breakfast for us on the two early morning ferries and the other 3 days we had a delicious breakfast with fruit, yogurt, pasties and eggs made to order. The hotel is in a great walkable location. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

Santa cruz quick tour

Our stay at hotelGalapagos suites was great! Liz was very helpful and welcoming. The location was central but on a quiet side street. The hotel was well set up and the breakfast provided was very good. They gave you what you needed without being wasteful and excessive. It was perfect for our family time on santa cruz.

Beautiful old house right near the port with breakfast included. Joslin and her staff were kind and helpful and care that everyone is comfortable and happy. There is no kitchen for guests but there is a small fridge, bottled water, and a coffee/tea area. The Starlink worked well on my laptop but not well on my phone.
