Grand Victoria Boutique Hotel

The quality of the breakfast wasn’t the best, especially, with the coffee, tamal lojano. The hot food was lukewarm. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially the bellboy. The hotel was well located, nice and had good amenities. The back part was noisy with the events during the weekend.

This was an extremely charming hotel. Located in a historic building, the rooms were great. We got a roomy suite for $130. The staff were incredibly helpful and responsive and it is right in the center of town. It is the only place I would stay in Loja.

Beautiful hotel with immaculate facility, very nice traditional decor. Great lobby and a grand staircase. Great breakfast bar and a decent weight room.

The continental breakfasts have improved tremendously! As a traveling American, I can say that Grand Victoria Boutique Hotel has really exceeded, even beyond many high ranking Hotels in the states! They are certainly my favorite foto in all of Loja! Way to go ! Grand Victoria Boutique Hotel :)

The Grand Victoria Hotel has many plus points - a gracious old building, attractive rooms, friendly staff, and a good central location. Unfortunately the hotel is unable to provide a basic requirement: a good night’s sleep. The hotel holds many functions during the day and the evening, but unfortunately the lay out of the hotel (all rooms overlook internal atriums, and all windows open ONLY to the atriums) means that any evening functions disturb guests. On our first night the music stopped at midnight, and we were then able to sleep (although we were woken early by the setting up of breakfast service on the floor immediately below us). On the second night the music was deafening!!! and went on until 1.30 am. At 2.30 am the staff started dragging furniture along the floor below us, to set up for another function the next day. We got only 4 hours sleep. Our complaint the following morning was met with fulsome apologies and agreement that the extended disturbance was unacceptable (and an admission from the staff member that noise disturbance for overnight guests is a regular problem) but no adjustment was made to our bill. When we insisted we were given a discount of 10% - inadequate for the loss of a good night’s sleep. A further point to note is that because the windows only open to the internal atrium they have to be kept closed. As a result our room was terribly hot, and had neither a fan nor aircon. We were so disappointed that what should have been an enjoyable stay was marred by noisy functions on both nights, and we’re especially annoyed that we were kept awake until after 3 am on the second night.

Most beautiful hotel and such a friendly staff. Thank you!
