Galápagos Isabela Hotel Loja

The hotel boasted a delightful courtyard, a rejuvenating pool, the most accommodating receptionist in town, complete with a charming doggo named Chocolate (they even have a statue of him haha). Byron, the receptionist, exuded warmth, extending a welcoming demeanour and providing invaluable recommendations. The air conditioning in the bedrooms, along with the inviting swimming pool and cozy hammocks, were ideal following a day of snorkelling or volcano trekking. Conveniently attached to a fantastic café, the hotel is close proximity to karaoke bars, a municipal recreational area, and a plaza offering an array of local food options. Within a 5-minute stroll, I was at the beachfront. Breakfast featured delights including fresh juice, pastries, scrambled eggs, yogurt, granola, fruits, and coffee. Byron's thoughtfulness extended to preparing an early breakfast for me ahead of a 7 AM volcano hike pick-up, showcasing his exceptional hospitality.

The breakfast included in the fee is great. They switch it up every day but always include fresh fruit and coffee/tea. They were accommodating to my dietary restrictions (no meat/chicken or lactose). The shower gets very hot and has good pressure. It’s about a 5 minute walk to the Main Street of the town and the beach, which made it an ideal location for me. The room was large and had plenty of natural light.

Great stay in a lovely low key property about 5 min walk from beachfront. Immaculate small pool and lovely courtyard to relax Delicious breakfast very well presented. Room well appointed as well as bathroom.

We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Loja. The man on reception (Byron) is so super kind and friendly. The breakfast every day was great and they switched it up which was good. They will also make an earlier breakfast if needed for your tour.

Amazing place! Only minus is that there is only one person who speaks English so when she wasnt around we couldnt get service. But she was almost always there so it was okay. Breakfast is really good, they change it a bit every morning. Leslie will book all the tours and ferry tickets you want. She also arrange our laundry. She speaks very good English. Nice yard with a pool. Restaurants, shops and apotek near. Wifi doesnt really work but it doesnt work well anywhere in Galapagos Islands. Our room was big and we had our own balcony. Very clean room. You can also get water for free at the front desk. I would definetely go back here and I recommend this hotel 100%! P.s. Do the Los Tuneles snorkling tour, it was so good!!!
