Chilcabamba Lodge

Everything was excellent. The service, the staff, the food, the rooms, the scenery. There are many hiking/running options in the area.

Beautiful cozy property with isolated serenity. Amazing stargazing at night and fun walking trails on the property. The views of Vulcan Cotapaxi where stunning, and we loved our family suite with wood burning fireplace. Humble and highly responsive staff made our stay even more welcoming, while exciting adventures all booked directly through Chilcabamba were well worth it and a great value. Perfect for romantic getaway or family adventure - highly recommend!!

We stayed in Chilcabamba lodge for four nights on a weekend. We had the most amazing view of the Cotopaxi Volcano in the morning and during our horse riding. The experiences that this places offer are good and very enjoyable. Only big problem from this place was the internet connection completely horrible, during night time was usually worse because of more guests on the hotel and we couldn’t even enjoy a movie on our room. This place have the potential to be a 10/10 but they have to fix their internet connection.

We stayed for two nights at the Chilcabamba Lodge during our 7 day trip to Ecuador. This is a beautiful lodge with a cozy feel located close to the entrance of Cotopaxi National Park. It has beautiful views of several volcanoes. Overall, it was our favorite accommodation while visiting Ecuador. The staff were incredibly helpful and attentive to our needs. The dinner meals were delicious, especially the soups that were served. All ingredients were incredibly fresh. All three of us, including a teenager, agreed that this was the best food we had during our stay in Ecuador. Jonathan was incredibly nice at both the breakfast and dinner services. We used their guide to do the hike up to the glacier of Cotopaxi volcano, and he was a great source of information and very supportive throughout the hike. I would highly recommend hiking up to the refuge on Cotopaxi volcano, but keep in mind that this can be a physically demanding hike if you are not used to hiking at high altitude. If you visit Chilcabamba Lodge, make sure to take a walk in the short trails behind the lodge and look for the swinging chair that is nestled in the vegetation to sit and enjoy the view of the Cotopaxi volcano.

Wonderful eco lodge on the edge of Cotopaxi national park. Very high quality accommodation, simple and local. Great food, fantastic views of Cotopaxi. Wood burners in every room, great value food. About 1 hour from Quito (2from airport) but well worth the trip
