“Under construction and the service is bad and lazy - everything is for the owners convenience.”
The location is great and filtered water in the common area to fill up your water bottle.

“Really enjoyed my stay.”
At first I was a bit taken back by the renovation work taking place but it did not impact my stay at all. My room was a great size , loved I could relax in the hammock and get hot water for my morning coffee all day! Free clean water available to top up my bottle and I slept so well as bed was really comfortable. Quiet and a good breakfast. Value for money and owner was very helpful. Great air con.

The hotel has a great location, it's very close to the beach and various restaurants. It's within walking distance to the ferry terminal and 10 minutes drive from the airport. My room was very bright and clean. I also had a balcony with a hammock and a great seaview. Eduardo was very friendly and helpful with providing me with advice about tours and arranging airport transfer. I really enjoyed my stay at the Royal Galápagos Inn and having a free breakfast every morning which was a nice bonus. I would definitely stay here again in the future. Muchas gracias!

“A wonderful place to stay in San Cristobal”
A wonderful place to stay in San Cristobal. Close to beaches, restaurants & walking distance from the pier. Eduardo and his wife are so kind and friendly, they make you feel right at home. Facilities are great, clean and comfortable with a great shower. Breakfast was delicious.

“Great location and stunning views…. Good budget option”
The location, I read previous posts about having to walk up a hill. It was a 100 metre slight incline, nothing more than you would have walking along the street. It is set back one block from the centre of town. This was great, because it was away from street noise(could still hear the sea lions :)) and I could take advantage of the absolutely STUNNING view from the hammock on the balcony. This location means that you are closer to the beach and the walks that you will want to take advantage of. Staff are just lovely, definitely a family feeling as you walk in. This of funny grandad and beautiful sweet auntie.

“Incredible”
I had an amazing stay at Royal Galapagos!! It’s very safe, the staff is soooo friendly! The owner is an absolutely lovely lady! The breakfast is very good! The bed very comfortable, and you’re at a walking distance of one of the most incredible beach in the world, playa Mann ( incredible because you’re nearly sharing your towel with the sea lions on the beach ) And to cover all that, you have the sea and sunset view from your hamac on your balcony! Just perfect! If you want to enjoy your stay at San Cristobal, just go there! Best place!
