RIGHT AT THE HEART OF THINGS IN THE HOTEL SILBERSTEIN

Hotel Silberstein

The hotel Silberstein has a long and proud history and was one of the first hotels to be developed in Puerto Ayora, capital of the island of Santa Cruz. Formerly known as the Residencial Angermeyer, it was built at the start of the last cemtury by the Angermeyer family and became the stopping-point for generations of tourists to the Galapagos Islands.

More recently, it was taken over by the Silberstein family, who thoroughly modernised the hotel, bringing it up-to-date for the 21st century and ready for a new generation of Galapagos travellers. The only thing that hasn't changed is the warm welcome, the excellent location and the really tasty food served up in the Silbnerstein's great open-air restaurant!

The famous Charles Darwin Centre, home to the oldest Galapagos tortoise alive - Lonesome George - is just down the road, and the beaches of Santa Cruz are all a short walk or quick bike ride away so you really don't have to go far to enjoy some of the Galapagos' amazing wildlife and scenery.
