I stayed in PapaGayo one night in combination with a trip to Cotopaxi and Quilotoa and I loved every minute of it. Everything was perfect, the staff really make you feel at home and comfortable. We got to borrow some mountainbikes to see more of the surrounding areas and the place itself is great for taking a relaxing stroll. It... More

Staff is very friendly and helpful. Hotel and rooms are really nice. We stayed here 4 days. And every day after the hike the staff is welcoming us with coffee and cake. We highly recommend the hotel as a basecamp for some hikes in the area. Roger and franziska

This gave me the chance to try out different rooms there (not all of them though). Some of my experiences: Emanuel: It was the first room I got and I really... More
