The location is the best, the staff is ok but room had not vent in the bathroom which is unacceptable, the AC did not work well, the breakfast buffet did not have coffee, just colored water with not flavor at all. I booked the hotel online and I wasn't advise that next to my room there will be construction work the hotel told me at check in🙄

A very well maintained, beautiful hotel, located a 100 yards from both the main street and the beach promenade/shopping street. Some rooms overlook a narrow street with a tight S bend which can be a little noisy until the traffic dies down in the evening.

Great bar and pool
We enjoyed our stay here during a land based tour of various islands around the Galapagos. Enjoyed the pool and bar area after the days adventures. Close to the hustle and bustle of the Main Street without being right in the middle of it. My only complaint was WiFi wasn’t good in the rooms. Overall I would recommend

A hidden gem that is situated a short walk from the main avenue and activities area. Very accomodating, courteous and helpful. Great breakfast to start your mornings, with custom omelets and variety of cereals. Of course coffee and juices. Then when returned from tours, there is a adult bar, attended and games and a lounge area and pool. I would recommend and reserve again in future.

The water pressure wasn’t great in the shower. If you have candies or something sweet in the room you probably gonna get a lot of ants. There were some insects inside the room too. Breakfast was really amazing and people that work there are the nicest. It’s a good location.

Great stay!
Staff was very helpful and the Santa Fe tour we booked with them was excellent. You are less than 5 minutes from port if you arrive via boat. You are also about a 10 minute walk from main street that has lots of restaurants and bars. Definitely would stay there again.

The hotel room was spacious and had a balcony view to the ocean. The hotel staff were friendly and helped with all questions and requests. Our only issue with this hotel is that there is no wifi in the hotel room, you have to be in the common spaces to use the wifi.

Great Stay
We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Ninfa for 5 days with a group of 7 including kids. The service and cleanliness were very good. Breakfast was great each morning. The location can’t be beat. It’s so close to shopping, dining, pier for tours and supermarket and ATM. The property is gated so it felt very secure. Would recommend it. We were there on New Year’s Eve and the celebrations outside were very loud but that was understandable and expected.
