The hotel has decent rooms with a nice bathroom (if en-suite). The rooms are quiet (at least the internal ones) & there is a good supply of blankets. it is not spectacular, but it's perfectly decent & very clean. Excellent value for money if you want to be in the centre of Riobamba, near all the bars, restaurants & the... More

I gave this three stars mainly because it was so cheap, but that's its best quality. Apart from the price, there was little else to recommend it, as it was fairly a fairly glum and ugly place. Even my window looked out on to an inner wall, so I couldn't enjoy any views of local volcanoes, etc... I did sleep... More

If I'm rating this place out of all the hotels/hostels in Ecuador, it gets 2 stars. If I'm rating it by Riobamba's standards, probably 4. It's a perfectly adequate place to stay. Decent bed, hot water, large breakfasts, centrally located. And as other reviewers have mentioned, hilarious decor. Downsides: Despite the rooms being set back from the street, there was... More

Stayed here in June of 2010. The room was small as well as the bathroom. It was clean. Once in the front door of the hotel it is a bit of a hike to the room in a secluded courtyard. Stayed one night only. Did not really feel comfortable here, not sure why. The train was not running at the... More

I have held back reviewing places in South America until I have travelled for several months (inculding 6 weeks in Ecuador) in order to, hopefully, give a fair review, in the context of the city, culture, price etc. Price: Approx US $30 per night for a matromonial room for 2. Bedrooms: Away from the street, the rooms are off internal... More

We stayed here for 2 nights. It is a nice hotel, the room was spacious as was the bathroom. It was clean and tidy. There's no safe in the room but the owner will put things in the safe in reception. The breakfast was adequate. It's central and if you're in the area, for the money you can't really fault... More

Rooms are spread out on three floors with large spacious courtyards. Plenty of places to sit and read. Can imagine that no two rooms are the same. Breakfast was excellent. Underground car parking was secure and much appreciated (although difficult to move around in -car- and a two person job to exit safely back onto the street !) Some good... More

We stayed two nights in the Tren Dorado in Riobamba and enjoyed the great breakfast buffet. The hotel also offers tours to the Chimborazzo, but this is a disappointing experience: a guided tour to the Chimborazzo Edward Whymper Refugio for 25 Dollars per person should not be calling a taxi that takes us there! The rooms in the back surround... More

We stayed for two nights in Tren Dorado and couldn't have been more impressed! In a somewhat grim and dirty city, this little gem stands out. The rooms in the courtyard (where we stayed) in particular were great and provided everything we wanted and more. We loved reading out in the little courtyard in the evenings and found the place...
