La Casa del Molino Blanco

Staff were really friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great and there were nice shared spaces. Unfortunately there wasn’t any hot water and no one around to ask when we were getting showers but I think they turned it on after we told them, but we had already showered at this point. The bed sheets had some hair and blood on the first night - but still seems washed, just maybe the washing machine had been too full. The second night everything was much fresher so I’m sure it was a one off.

Me encantó la casa del molino. Está en un lugar callado pero también cerca a todo lo que tiene el pueblo de Baños para ofrecer. La señorita Elba fue excelente en ayudarme con todo lo que necesité en el viaje y asegurar que mi quedada en el hostal fue fantástico. No te arrepentirás de quedarse aquí!

Amazing place to stay. The staff were very friendly and the breakfast was very good. We had a bit of a tough time with a late bus arriving in banos and my phone died while trying to communicate this to the hostel. They were gracious and friendly with this situation, and truly improved our stay in the town. The activities from the hostel are affordable and great, and the fact the hike to the virgin del agua Santa is right out the front door is awesome. 5 stars all around thank you!

Super établissement à Baños ! Cuisine bien équipée et petit déjeuner délicieux et consistant 😊 Films et vidéo projecteur à disposition. Le personnel est vraiment super et a de très bons goûts musicaux 😉

Very good experience. The rooms were very clean and the staff kept the bathroom nicely clean. I loved the omlette day for breakfast and the free coffee. A nice place and very helpful staff. We rented bikes from them for the waterfall tour on bikes. One key to be aware of is this is a 10-15 minute walk uphill from city center so you have to be prepared to return to the place going uphill.

Amazing place!! Super clean, close to the center, staff very helpful and friendly, good breakfast, would definitely stay again, thank you so much 😊

This hostel saved my mental state on this Ecuador trip. I messaged 6 hostels for travel advice and this one was by far the most communicative and invested in making sure my trip went well. At all hours they replied quickly. The property was very cute right next to a trail with a nice view. Hot showers and one of the best free hostel breakfasts ive had. You could not convince to ever stay anywhere else in Baños. Would have been a very different more unpleasant trip without Johanna Elba and Jimmy

I can not give La Casa Molino Blanco a high enough rating. From the minute you walk in you are treated like family. The owners and staff go above and beyond to make your stay amazing. The rooms are comfortable and spotless with an attention to detail that leaves you everything you need. He security also made me feel great a a solo female traveler. Thank you for hosting me.

Can’t fault this hostel at all, seemed a little on the pricey side when we booked but worth every penny. Fantastic breakfast and they mix it up each day too. Lovely hot shower and bathrooms spotless, they are cleaned regularly throughout the day. The staff are welcoming and friendly and help you with queries. It really is not far too walk too either it’s just 5 mins away from the centre and is located right at the bottom of the steps to hike up to casa del arbol.

Sehr nette und hilfsbereite Gastgeber. das Frühstück war sehr lecker. Die Küche war sehr gut ausgestattet. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber.

ein sehr schönes, gepflegtes hostal in ruhiger Lage mit sehr netten Mitarbeiterin/Betreiberin.

완벽한 호스텔 센터와 멀다는 게 약간의 단점 나머지는 모두 완벽해요 오르막길도 다니다보면 익숙해져요 조식이 대단하고 도미토리 구성 매우 편리함

Unfortunately, we only had time for one night but we really enjoyed the place and it‘s lovely hosts! We can totally recommend the breakfast, it‘s all made with love! There are towels, good showers, a kitchen and a small bar :)

Staying here is like staying with friends who are caring about you a lot. Staff is incredible, they take time to chat with you, support you with trip planning and everything else. The room & bathroom were very clean & comfortable + the atmosphere in the garden is really nice. It’s quiet, you can relax for hours in the hammock watching birds & clouds passing by. The breakfast was very diverse, everyday another highlight + always fruits and fresh juice. Not even 10 min easy walking to the center...

The good - Warm and friendly staff, very satisfying breakfast with (variations everyday), large room with a luggage storage area. The could be better - Outdoor signage could be clearer to help locate the entrance, bathroom needs shelves for placing products like shampoo / toothbrushes, room lighting could be better in the storage section.

Lovely hostel if you’re looking for a chill few days in Banos! Joanna was lovely and made great breakfasts. Can book activities, cinema room, really clean, comfy beds, warm, big kitchen. Really great. Not the most social when we were there but if you’re tired from hiking the Quilotoa loop (like us) then this place is perfect :)

On s'y sent comme à la maison, le personnel est aussi sympathique qu'arrangeant, les activités proposées sont nombreuses, on a adoré notre séjour ! Merci encore pour tout !

My stay at this hostel was excellent. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and genuinely dedicated to making every guest feel welcome. The customer service truly stood out and made the whole experience special. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the common areas were well-maintained and perfect for meeting other travelers. The atmosphere was warm, relaxed, and very inviting. Overall, a great place to stay. I highly recommend it and would definitely come back!

Loved this hostel! I came here after Cotopaxi and it was the perfect quiet spot to rest and recharge. It’s family-run, with such a welcoming feel, and the free breakfast in the morning was great. Easy walk to town and a really nice place to relax. I was there during the slower season so it wasn’t very social, but they still offer plenty of good activities and tour

Very helpful and friendly staff, a bit out of town (10-15 min walk) but quiet and peaceful.
