Location
Guests will appreciate the 4-star modern Hotel El Marques Atacames's location, within 5 minutes' walk of the lively Playa de Atacames Beach, as well as 24-hour reception and wake-up service provided on site. Featuring a restaurant, the hotel is just steps from Iglesia De Atacames.
You'll need 35-minute drive to Colonel Carlos Concha Torres airport. Natural attractions in the area include the cove Playa De Sua Beach, 2.9 km from the El Marques Atacames, and a beach is just 1.6 km away. This Atacames hotel is situated in close proximity to Aqua Park El Surillal, and Trans Esmeraldas bus station lies merely a 5-minute walk away.
Overlooking the ocean, the 172 rooms are appointed with air conditioning, as well as modern facilities such as a flat-screen TV with satellite channels. A separate toilet and a shower, along with a hair dryer and bath sheets, are provided. Most of the rooms at Hotel El Marques also feature views of the Pacific Ocean.
Buffet breakfasts are available upon request. Vegetarian cuisine can be enjoyed in the à la carte Shamu restaurant. There is a seafood restaurant serving Ecuadorean food a mere 250 metres away.
Review by hotel critic
Hotel El Marques in Atacames undoubtedly positions itself as a notable choice for travelers seeking a blend of comfort and luxury. As a wildlife conservationist and safari guide, I'm more accustomed to the beauty of African landscapes, but my stay here painted a fresh picture of Ecuador. The rooms are spacious and clean, boasting essential amenities like air conditioning and flat-screen TVs. They lack an inviting charm one might expect. The restaurant offers a limited menu, and while it's slightly pricier than nearby options, the freshness of the meals balances it out. The daily breakfast is satisfactory, complementing the overall experience. The outdoor swimming pool, though refreshing, might not match the ocean's warmth. A highlight is the hospitality; the staff was always keen to assist. While this hotel comes with a higher price tag compared to local accommodations, the convenience and standard of facilities justify the cost for many travelers. It is a wise investment if you're looking for comfort amid the vibrant Atacames beach scene.
