    Nothing

    The rooms are nice and clean, large, comfortable, and modern. Hotel about a 5 min walk to the main street by the harbour where all the restaurants are. Staff are pleasant, helpful and speak English. They were great in arranging a very reasonably priced taxi tour of the Highlands for us : ) Also, can fill up water bottles with purified water which, given the need to stay hydrated in the Galapagos, was appreciated.

    The rooms are comfortable, clean and well equipped, with a well working air condition. Hotel is near to the center of Puerto Ayora. But the extraordinary at Hotel Palace is the staff: All staff members were really helpful and friendly. They helped us with planning day tours and transfers and had good recommendations for restaurants, bars and activities. We could leave our luggage while we were some nights on another Island. The breakfast was freshly and lovely prepared every morning, even when we needed to leave before official breakfast time. We very enjoyed our stay and recommend this hotel strongly for your stay at Galapagos!

    I feel I could have been offered more information about tours and what to prioritise seeing on my short stay, but other than that everything was very good :)

    Clean large bedroom, comfortable bed, nice breakfast consisting of eggs how you desire, toast, bread with jam and butter, fruit and yoghurt with coffee/ tea/ juice. The room was quiet and had AC which meant it was comfortable all the time. The bathroom was nice with a bath and a shower but could do with slight updating. You had to wait a little for hot water but that is normal on the island so wasn’t a problem. The staff were very friendly The location is very good being just a 7/8 minute walk from the main high street and sea.

    Everything was okay. The hotel was a little bit far from the centre but we were aware when we booked it.

    The hotel room was clean and spacious. While the breakfast started one hour after we checked out (we had a very early start) staff offered to prepare a lunch bag (sandwich, a fruit and a juice).

    I like the location and the comfort of the room. The girl go out her way to cook early breakfast for us since we need to be early for our tours.
