We have stayed at almost every hotel in Manta that is upper scale and the Howard Johnson is by far, the best. The hotel is perched upon a cliff and It has a breath taking view. Good wi-fi in the lobby. The rooms are nicely designed and are equiped with coffee makers, irons, ironing boards, blow dryers, and the flat... More

The views are just like a scene out of a movie.Just can not say enough good things about staying there. No matter where you turn, this place is all about service...As you may know, while the first thing you notice is the structure of a facility and the amities.But at the heart of any business is the personnel. And this... More

Particularly, it sucks that you don't have a beach right there, since it's all rocky. nevertheless, the built-in beach you have, it's amazing. the views are breathtaking, but then again, you only see rocks, but still is a pretty good view. Visited for a night on December 23rd 2011. would go back again. accommodations are impeccable! no hot water on... More

They went to the airport to pick me up in a van with air conditioner and they drop me also the last day. The employees are very attentive and helpful. The pool is nice and very clean and... More

I stayed for 2 days in hotel, at room overlooking the sea. The landscape is very beautiful, but the beach in front of the hotel is not good for swimming. The breakfast features ranging options, all very tasty, served in the hotel restaurant. employees are well trained, very attentive, striving to understand the guests of other nationalities. worthy of a...

A far cry from the Howard Johnson Motor Lodge we all remember in the US. The location on the Pacific Coast if very convenient for Manta. The hotel was clean and service was very good by local standards. The pool was great and restaurant had a great breakfast which was included in the room rate. I would stay here again.

Cannot believe this is what a Howard Johnson's looks like today!! Great location. Room had everything you might need and the breakfast each morning was terrific. The views of the beach and ocean were perfect. Watched whales breaching from our veranda all afternoon one day. Staff was very helpful and made our stay easy and enjoyable. It is easy to... More

I stayed at the Howard Johnson Manta for two nights while being on a road trip along the ecuadorian coast. Getting there with the rental car was a bit difficult, because the driving directions from the HoJo website proved to be useless. But once I was there...oh what an experience. I had a big and nicely decorated room with a... More
