Hotel Oro Verde

Overview

Description

Our hotel is near the main atractions of the city: the Guayas River, Malecon 2000, Cerro Santana (where the city was founded), and the colonial neighborhood "Las Peñas".

The flora and fauna is very rich both inside and in the outskirts of the city with an impressive variety of endemic birds.

We recently inaugurated the Oro Verde Club Floor, the most impressive of any five-star hotel in the country. Its spectacular corridors are a preamble to the elegant rooms that will meet all your needs: Presidential, Oro Verde, and Club Floor suites and matrimonial rooms have been decorated with exquisite taste: marble floors sometimes combined with pisos flotantes, panoramic windows, expansive rooms, bathrooms with the latest technology and first-class finishes -- this is an ideal place for the most demanding visitors. In the Oro Verde Club Floor lounge, guests can also enjoy early check-in and late check-out services, buffet breakfast, afternoon tea, happy hour, wireless Internet, fax service, and laptop use (according to availability).

All of our rooms and suites have television speakers with volume control in the bathroom, feather duvets and comforters, light control systems with bedside and entryway dimmer switches, lighted closets and motion sensors, and imported drapes with blinds and blackout curtains - all to give you the comfort of a hotel with five-star service.
