Chimborazo Lodge

stunning location, beautiful and clean buildings, comfortable beds, good food, surrounded by wildlife

charging for drinks (water at dinner, coffee at breakfast) when paying $170 a night mixed messaging from the staff regarding helping us with a lift to the hiking trails (we had to hitchhike in the end)

Amazing magical place

the property is superb. you could not have it in a better location. the cabins were great. So much paraphernalia to look at….the history of great mountain climbers. we were very lucky with perfect weather. Chimborazo was free of clouds. What a gift. not to mention the beautiful alpacas roaming around to complete the picture. the food was excellent .

Breathtaking location! Loved seeing all the alpacas, rabbits and deer. The decor was so cool, with mountaineering memorabilia everywhere. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I have an allergy to feathers and they changed my bedding quickly. The food was very good. It's secluded and beautiful. Wish we could have stayed longer.

It was a bit cold in the room, but they provided us with space heaters. Just as a note, there is no wifi or cell reception.

Stunning views, gorgeous place, food was very good. Llamas are so beautiful 😍

The heater was not warm enough in our room.

It's like a paradise. Natural and simple, and you can enjoy the magnificence of the Chimborazo Mountains from the closest distance. Friendly staffs. the place without light pollution at night, let us see the amazing galaxy. We love this amazing place. Although my daughter has severe altitude sickness reaction, we have to drive down the mountain overnight.. We used to stay in Riobamba for one night before traveling to higher altitudes, but this time we were too confident. However, we will visit again next time when we are better prepared.

I like the idea of no internet and communication. Let everyone enjoy the beautiful nature. But I suggest that the hotel should set up simple communication such as walkie-talkies in each room, so that members can communicate with members who are not in the same building or hotel staff in an emergency.

A really great hotel in an environment that is (in more than one way) breathtaking. The food (breakfast!) is very good, the furnishing is rustic and comfortable and the details of decoration are adorable. On a future stay in Ecuador we will certainly spend some more days at Chimborazo Lodge.

The location is amazing, very beautiful

I arrived and my girlfriend had altitude sickness, its 4200m above sea level. I had never experienced this before, and I was not sure about how to react. She could not breathe, she was getting desperate, she was panicking. I desperately asked the receptionist for help and the only thing they gave me was a generic tea o coca, which did not work. I asked if they had any oxygen and they were concerned only about my ability to pay the booked room. The receptionist did not know what to do, he acted uninterested. This was an emergency, i could see my girlfriends lips becoming pale and I was scared. The staff had NO IDEA how to guide me, their major interest was for me to pay the booked night.Including myself, there were a total of 3 guests in the entire hotel and I could have not had the worst service experience. I ended up paying 50% of the price because of a threat of the owner. They were not prepared to handle this situation at all. No oxygen, no interest, no nothing, not even fast directions of how to get out of the altitude faster. Amazing facilities, amazing place, overpriced, bad experience with altitude sickness.
