Lindo sitio, buena ubicación pero un poco caro

La cercanía al parque nacional Cotopaxi. Bien decorado

Los precios de la comida me parecieron excesivamente altos

Andean Paradise

Easy 1.5 hour drive from Quito transports you into a spectacular landscape! The lodge was welcoming and cozy with a modern yet distinctly Andean aesthetic. Great food and hospitality. The toasty fire in the room--that staff maintained through the day--made it even more inviting.

The lodge is located close to Cotopaxi volcano, to get there it is better to have a SUV or something similar, but when going really slow and careful you also manage with a normal car. The staff is very friendly, they kept the kitchen open longer on our arrival day. The food is very good. Also they helped us to organize our activities, like the Cotopaxi hike with a local guide and horse back riding. The room was very nice and the fire was turned on for warmth. Unfortunately the shower took a very long to get warm water.

Fantastic gateway with volcano view

Secluded, stylish accommodation with unique location among volcanoes. Good service and tasty food. We enjoyed our time there a lot. I appreciated that Jessica helped us to arrange all the activities and transfers so everything went seamless.

it was magnificent— a true paradise in the Andean Highlands of Ecuador with a stunning few of 5 or 6 volcanoes including

This property was beautiful! it has been refurbished in the last few months and the attention to detail is exquisite. It’s immaculately maintained and it’s location in the valley of the volcanoes cannot be matched. we ate dinner and breakfast there which were wonderful overlooking the Cotopaxi volcano. The staff were amazing particularly Jesica who organized everything for us including horseback riding. I’ve forgotten the name of the other person who helped us out — Diego or Jose — but he was extremely helpful too. We loved the fireplace in our room. I can’t say enough about Chilcabamba!

There was absolutely nothing we didn’t like about this property!

Has the potential to be great

Chilcabamba Lodge was a very nice place with an incredible view! We would rank our overall stay an 8/10 since somethings were slightly off. Pros: The view of Cotopaxi is impeccable when the sky is clear! The rooms are adorable and very cozy with a wood burning fireplace. The staff is quick to help and service was lovely The proximity of the hotel to the North Entrance of Cotopaxi National Park is about a 10 minute drive The Chilcabamba Lodge property and main building is clean, spacious with room to walk around and had a lovely outdoor and indoor area to hang out and relax. A welcome drink when you arrive and very easy check in We got a box lunch one day and was pleasantly surprised by the amount of food. 3 pieces of fruit, a sandwich, power-aid drink, chocolate bar, granola bar, and some biscuits! A poncho like coat in each room to wear around the property when it's chilly! Helped to prevent our clothes smell like bonfire. Cons: Walls between rooms look like stone but are actually very thin and everything can be heard by your neighbors. Normal talking voice conversations and be heard word for word and we could hear our neighbor snoring at night. The hot water in the shower was hit or miss with it changing from warm to chilly to warm but never super hot. The bon fires in the evening were mostly smoke with very little flame. They were still enjoyable and a great time but all nights were the same and super smokey. Wifi could be spotty moving in very small areas Mostly we felt a little nickel and dimed. We asked for a bottle opening to enjoy a bottle of wine in our room after dinner and they said $5. At check out they tied charging us a $10 corking fee for a bottle we drank in our room and said we should pay it for any drink we had opened ourselves. There were a few other small things that in the big picture don't really matter, but considering this is one of the nicer places if felt odd for them to ask for money for these small things.

The food was mostly amazing but then we'd get a meal where it was subpar and seemed completely out of place. We did notice that when there were more people at the hotel food quality and quantity was lower. All food was served and it seemed like if you were later to a meal there was less left or you didn't get something at all. Beds are pretty firm

A Cotopaxi gem

Stunning interiors, comfy beds, stellar views. We couldn’t have been happier with the place. Jessica was extremely kind and helpful too, she talked us through what to do in the national park - which is a couple of minutes drive away.

Amazing place!

It is a very cozy place with outstanding views. Stuff is very helpful and attentive. Jesica and Jose are awesome. The chef served the best maduro entree, and they have a nice selection of Ecuadorian wine, which is very cool, because I wanted to try it, but couldn’t find it anywhere.

it is not like I don’t like something, the lodge is great! but a few suggestions: 1. it would be nice if the the Wi-Fi connection in the rooms was better, sometimes even YouTube was hard to watch. 2. Add some snacks that will be available to buy during the whole day and night, because there are no shops nearby. 3. Guys are very helpful with the fireplace, but we had to call them every hour, because the wood was wet, and it required special inflaming ashes to make it burn. so, maybe some dry wood or some inflaming ashes in the room, can fix this problem. But, again the atmosphere and service are great, and worth visiting, so this suggestions just to meals this place perfect, from my point of view! thank you for the great vacation!

Bumpy ride to a magnificent view

Best location for viewing Cotopaxi and travel to the National Park. Met many people from other countries while in the guest lounge. Food was great and they accommodated my Vegan request. Jessica was fantastic and resolved all our requests and spoke great English. The rest of the staff was very courteous and helpful.

The road to the lodge (either direct through Sangolqui or through Machachi) are just plain awful. They are upgrading parts of the road from Machachi, but they are still sections that are old cobble stones. From Machachi it is all cobblestones and ruts for many km. So once you are at the lodge, going anyplace else is difficult. Thankfully the lodge is great as is the food.

It is a newly renovated, small scale lodge managed by friendly people and a good chef. Ideal to discover the Cotopaxi NP. There is a large patch of ground behind the lodge that you can discover with views on the volcano.

This was a fantastic hotel if you want to explore Cotopaxi and the surrounding mountains. The staff were extremely attentive and helpful in planning everything from our transportation to our excursions. We were greeted with warm drinks and a smile. Breakfast is a must and delicious! Dinner is equally as good and tastes fantastic after a long day out. When we stayed it was a little cloudy, but the views are still fantastic! The rooms are comfy and warm with a wood fireplace in every room. Nothing but great things to say about this hotel.

I will warn the less seasoned traveler, the ride out there from Quito is an adventure. The first hour is paved roads and windy hill. The second hour is cobblestone or dirt road with a lot of bumps. I do not recommend renting a car to do this yourself unless you are experienced. If you do rent a car, I recommend a four wheel drive and lifted vehicle.

Chilcabamba Lodge, perfect base for Cotopaxi

Gorgeous setting at 3400m on the lower flanks of Cotopaxi volcano. 10 minute drive to North Gate of the National Park. Tasty and plentiful breakfast and evening meals. Both early mornings unobstructed views of Cotopaxi Volcano. Rooms exquisite, suites with attention to detail and wood burning stove.

Meal service is a little rushed. Courses appeared before the previous was finished.
