A wonderful place along side the river. The hosts are a young family who open up their home and make strangers feel at home, and welcome. The room was comfortable and cozy. It was not just an overnight stay but an amazing experience.
I loved my stay at River Song. I was offered an upgrade for no charge upon my arrival. The family who owns River Song were so friendly and kind and welcoming. They made me feel like a member of the family. The property was beautiful and well maintained, and my cabin sat right on Mindo River. The family helped me arrange transportation and helped with tour information. I would definitely stay at River Song again!
We stayed in one of the three cabins directly next to the river. The sounds of the water is nice but often overpowers the sounds of birds, but still was a nice gentle sound to fall asleep to. The place was a bit too far for us to walk to town, but is easily possible. Taxis are readily available.
The service was terrific, beds comfortable, and the coffee was interesting. An added benefit is the butterfly sanctuary just across the street, If you are looking for a quiet place, try River Songs Hotel.
Horrible experience in this place,i got several bug bites on my legs,shower was very uncomfortable since is only cold water,
The only good about this place is the nature surrounded this place,other than no.
Check other options before booking this place. And lastly they almost canceled our reservation, because they were saying that they don't work with expedia, because they dont pay, and expedia owns them 5,000 dollars already.
La propiedad es muy cerca del mariposario,al lado del río.Rustica,la ropa de cama y toallas un olor muy rico,el desayuno incluido muy bueno.El personal muy amable,sobre todo su propietario Salam,altamente recomendado.
Me tocó en la casa, donde vivo ve el propietario con bebés pequeños.
Como es de madera el 2 piso se siente todo

Nunca sirvió el agua caliente, pedimos varias veces a la chica que atiene que nos ayude y nunca llegó la ayuda. No había papel higiénico ni jabón en el baño y de igual manera pedi varias veces, hasta que bajé molesta a pedir al dueño nos entregaron enseguida. Las habitaciones simples NO dan al rio.
Bien ubicadas, en la orilla del río lo que me da un ambiente natural. Cerca del centro de Mindo.
Lo que recomendaría es que exista una mejor presión de agua para las duchas.
El anfitrión muy agradable y atento
Wundervoller Ort mir vielen hübschen Details. 20-30 Minuten zu Fuß ins Zentrum von Mindo oder günstig mit dem Taxi erreichbar. Traumhafte Umgebung in der Natur.
Überaus freundliche und immer hilfsbereite Inhaberfamilie.
Vollste Empfehlung!
Die Häuschen am Fluss sind super schön und idyllisch, der Garten ebenso 🙂. Das Rauschen des Flusses hilft tatsächlich beim (Ein-)Schlafen und die Lage ist toll für Ausflüge in den wunderschönen Schmetterlingspark und für Aktivitäten wie Teleferico, Wanderungen und Ziplines. Die Besitzer sind sehr nett und Parkmöglichkeiten auf dem abgeschlossenen Grundstück sind ebenfalls vorhanden. Das einzige Manko ist die teilweise kalte Dusche (vielleicht haben wir es auch nur nicht verstanden 😉) und dass das Zimmer bei unserem nur 2tägigen Aufenthalt nicht gemacht wurde. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist jedenfalls topp!
El lugar es bonito, tranquilo limpio y con bonitas áreas, sin embargo, si se encuentra bastante lejos del parque de mindo, para salir del lugar el camino no es bueno tiene bastantes huecos y es de tierra por lo que al ir con carro bajo complica un poco entrar y salir con facilidad. No nos realizaron la limpieza de la habitación, por que no entregamos las llaves pero nadie nos avisó aquello y al llegar esperábamos encontrar limpio y no fue asi. Adicional, el desayuno es rico pero al quedarnos dos noches no hay variedad en el desayuno, es el mismo los dos días. Del resto si es un sitio recomendable
