Well Located Hotel in Riobamba

The Montecarlo is by no means luxury, but perfectly fine if you're not too picky. The location is perfect, in the middle of town, about a 5 min walk to the train staion. Rooms are spacious and clean, if worn around the edges a bit. The shower only bathrooms are very cramped. A heavy person might find them a tight squeeze. Some rooms have balconies, from which you can watch the action on the busy streets below. Staff are nice, and will open the attached cafe for a bite on those very early mornings when you need to catch the train.

Unique Quality: Short walk to the Devil's Nose Train. From what I heard, they have the only cafe open in the wee hours for the early morning train riders...even though the included breakfast is nothing special.

A Fine Value

This perfectly fine hotel is very economical, and well situated. I arrived in Riobamba in the late afternoon, and there was only one room left. The bathroom was small, but the water was hot.

Unique Quality: The hotel is one of those Andean establishments built around a courtyard. Therefore, it is not very quiet, but the noise level was reasonable. The service staff was most helpful and courteous. The restaurant opens at 5 a.m. on train days.

  • Opinion of Price: less expensive than average

a good home base for the Riobamba/Baños area

Hotel Montecarlo is right in the center of the main street of Riobamba - complete with a restaurant and cafe. Very friendly staff, always helpful, and caters to the guests' needs. (On the days the Nariz del Diablo train runs, they begin serving breakfast at 5:30AM.)

Unique Quality: Good accommodations and definitely a good price.
