Hotel Spa Mansion Santa Isabella

Great place! We have stayed at this hotel for several trips now and it is consistently awesome.

Top notch staff & service. Clean rooms, big beds, wifi, we did laundry, we did couples massages, free breakfast in the restaurant attached to it. Safe neighborhood, close to shopping and transportation. Rodrigo did an amazing job. Transport to Quito airport provided.

Overall beautiful property in Riobamba. My husband & I were originally placed in a much smaller room than what we had booked. A bit of an inconvenience, but staff corrected situation once I informed them. Loved the suite (once we were moved to the correct room) & would highly recommend!! We were not given any information about breakfast, spa, etc. when we checked in so that would be my suggestion for an area to improve on

Great place to stay. Unfortunately the spa area was unavailable

Pros: - Wonderful building with beautiful patios - Over 100 years old history - Modern interior decorations - Very clean and quiet - Car park just behind the hotel (different entrance as hotel) - Overwhelming hospitality - The beds are so comfortable Cons: - n/a

The gardens were amazing. The staff was very nice

I made an unplanned visit to Riobamba during Carnival Weekend and stayed at this very charming hotel. The hotel is part of Riobamba's Cultural heritage so you would be able to stay at a part of history of this wonderful town. The mansion is centrally located so you are able to walk around to get to the tourist areas pretty easy. It is an old mansion and it also has an area that is more modern. I stayed on the patrimonial side. The room was cleaned and comfortable; not big but it was ok. It had all the necessaries elements. The staff was wonderful and willing to help out and always with a smile. Gerardo, the manager, personally communicated with me and made sure that I was well taken care of. He even personally served me breakfast one of the mornings that I got up late. He still offered me the breakfast although it was well past the time. The only area where I do see the need of improvement is the Spa service. I wanted to schedule a massage and they had a bit of an issue finding someone to come the day I wanted the service. They finally did find someone and although she was good and detailed, I found some things were lacking. I had to tell her to dim the light as she had the room bright and I would have liked some nice relaxing music in the background to go along with the ambiance. I also was not able to use the amenities for long. I had just gotten there for about 10minutes and got called for the massage. I went back after massage and it was all closed down already. There was also no one at the spa front desk so I had to communicate with the hotel reception by WhatsApp when I needed something. I gave my feedback to Gerardo and he welcomed it, apologized and said he would look into that. Overall, I really liked this charming hotel and received great service from the staff. I would definitely stayed here again if I visit Riobamba. I hope the spa is working better then because it will make it perfect! :-)

I had a great experience at the Mansion Santa Isabella. I got to the hotel at 11:30 in the morning and wanted to see if I could get a tour to Chimborazzo that afternoon. While no tour was understandably then available, the hotel made some quick calls and got a driver to take me to Chimborazzo for a hike to the Laguna and Refugio aet 5100 meters. That worked out perfectly for me. They also helped me with the bus schedule for my bus the following day to Cuenca. The hotel itself was beautifully decorated and appointed and offered a great full breakfast. The hotel is an old mansion and is worth staying at solely for the atmosphere, though the service matches as I have said. The room was really charming and atmospheric and quite quiet, if slightly on the smaller side. It is well located near restaurants and other activities in Riobamba (all within walking distance). The bathroom was impeccably clean and modern. As I mentioned, the service at the hotel was excellent. It was a true 4* experience and a very good value. If you are going to Riobamba or Chimborazzo, I definitely recommend the Santa Isabella.
