Hotel San Vicente, Review of Hotel San Vicente. My husband and I booked a land tour of the Galapagos Islands through Nature Galapagos & Ecuador ( an Equador company) choosing the "tourist class " option.  We stayed in this hotel for 6 nights. The room was more like a 4 star hotel than the 3 star it is rated as.... More

We stayed here for 3 nights as part of our land based tour with Nature Galapagos. The hotel was a 10 minute walk to the beach and restaurants which wasn't too bad and the hotel itself was conveniently located close by to a supermarket for picking up snacks and drinks. A word of warning when visiting Isabela Island - there... More

We stayed here for three nights in March. Our airconditioning did not work for the duration of our stay making it uncomfortable to sleep. Staff were not interested in fixing it or in giving us a different room. The hotel caters to tour groups and serves buffet style meals. There is insufficient food for all the guests and the staff...

We stayed at the Hotel San Vicente for three nights in late August as part of our land based tour with Nature Galapagos and Ecuador. Overall, we found the accommodation decent for the amount of time we spent there (minimal) and the price we paid (also minimal). LOCATION Not the greatest - it was down a quieter street, and one...

Situated on remote Isabela Island, this should be a castaway island getaway but instead is a fairly commercial, tour group centric hotel that lacks much charm. The staff are welcoming and friendly, but it just lacks the character that you would expect having travelled 6-7 hours from the Ecuadorian coast into the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The food is...

We stayed at the Hotel San Vicente in January as part of a island hopping tour booked through the company Nature Galapagos & Ecuador. While I´m sure there are more luxurious hotels in Isabela, for the price we paid we were very happy with our accommodations. The staff was nothing but friendly, (but true they don´t speak much english), and... More

We just return from Galapagos, Hotel San Vicente is the worst place where we stayed. The owners are not welcoming at all and they just forgot about being polite and nice, we are wondering why they are in this business. This hotel is like a tourist factory where a lot of persons are coming for one or 2 nights and... More

We stayed three night in a lovely and rather large room. We had full pension in this hotel. Due to the different activity programs and the size of the groups the meals are sheared on rather large tables. There is a very small front garden with some parasolled tables.The hotel has helpful staff. The hotel pick up and return guests... More
