Unipark is the downtown park view with breakfast settled. The hotel lists complimentary buffet breakfasts and its own airport shuttle.
The shuttle has no published fare or schedule, so it scores 15, not 25. There’s a gym, a sauna and a Jacuzzi; no pool is mentioned.
Ask how the shuttle works for your flight time when you book. Then go and see the iguanas.
Book it if
- You want breakfast in the rate downtown

From GYE without a hotel shuttle
The airport doesn’t publish taxi fares, per one unofficial guide. Another puts the official airport taxi at about US$5 to 8 to downtown and a ride-hail app at about US$3 to 6 to the Malecón, and the Metrovía stop out front at US$0.30. The airport page has what is and isn’t published.

Which terminal
GYE departuresMeasured to the GYE departures area, where you validate the Transit Control Card and check in for the Galápagos flight, Unipark is about 4.3 km away in a straight line. There’s no gangway in Guayaquil — your ship waits on Baltra or San Cristóbal. The Guayaquil guide has the check-in steps.

~4.3 km, straight lineAbout 4.3 km from GYE departures in a straight line between our map pins. That’s a ride, not a walk.
Airport bus
Not statedThe hotel doesn’t mention the Metrovía. An unofficial airport guide puts the Aeropuerto stop in front of the terminal, by a footbridge, at US$0.30 with a rechargeable card.

In town
Hotel rates onlyNobody publishes long-stay parking for a Galápagos departure, because the cruise starts on an island. Sheraton prints a nightly rate for checked-out guests, and the airport charges US$1.40 an hour, per Expreso — most travelers fly in and leave nothing to park.
