We stayed in Casa Verde for 5 nights in a superior room in May 2012 and loved it! More like staying with friends-of-friends than in a hotel/hostel. Doug and Rebecca (and their staff) are very welcoming, friendly and helpful. After a while travelling it can be lovely to find a place that feels so homely and where you can pop... More

I loved this hotel and very much enjoyed Doug and Rebecca who are devoted to living and working as green as possible. Any time we needed anything they were happy to help. They called cabs for us, gave us traveling advice, helped us set up hair appointments and tried to get us another white water rafting trip when ours was... More

My son and I stayed at La Casa Verde a couple weeks ago and had a fantastic time. The hostel is newly constructed by the owners Rebecca and Doug who have made this a labor of love. Everything is well thought out and the design features (bottles cemented into the walls etc) create a very authentic / modern decor. Both... More

We stayed a couple of nights in early April. We arrived in Banos at night so it was difficult to find the location. The roads near the Hostel are quite rough and it feels like you're about to end up in a wrong back alley. Upon our arrival, Rebecca was there to meet us and despite the dark location, her... More

We had a delightful stay at Casa Verde! Rebecca and Doug were super friendly, welcoming and helpful and the breakfast and other meals available were all delicious and home cooked. We felt very much "ät home" and highly recommend their eco-hostel. More

I'm an American living in Ecuador and I've been to Banos a couple of times. The first time I stayed at a ridiculously-overpriced hotel in town (Sangay) and the second time, THANKFULLY, at Casa Verde. It's a long walk from town, but the taxis are dirt cheap, so who cares? It's no-frills, but tasteful and comfortable. Rebecca is very kind.... More

We wanted to relax in Banos at the end of our vacation, so after finding this hostel online, we booked 4 nights....and what a gem this place was. After staying at a few "not so nice" hostel's during our trip, La Casa Verde was amazing and much more than we expected. The atmosphere is very comfortable, relaxed and safe. The... More

We stayed for 6 nights at La Casa Verde and had a wonderful time. Rebecca and Doug are wonderful hosts and took good care of us. The Hostel is quiet and in a lovely spot with great views of the mountains, valley and river. You will not find accomodations in Banos that offer better value. Doug and Rebecca are a... More
