Ecuador Budget Accommodation

Budget and backpacker hotels in Ecuador are somehow easy to find but in the end, you don’t know which ones to choose.

On this page, I write step-by-step practical information, photos, and respective prices. Cheap hostels and hotels I stayed in Ecuador and Galapagos.

This is the list of places I stayed during my 40-day trip to Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands. I always got budget accommodation choices.


My favorites


On that previous trip, my TOP 3 accommodation in Ecuador were:

  1. Posada del Caminante in Puerto Villamil, Ecuador
  2. Hotel Central in Quito, Ecuador

Geographic order of these hotels:
