Nice hotel close to old city
This hotel exceeded our expectations, especially given price. Location was perfect for viewing old city; about a block away From Plaza Grande. Staff was extremely attentive; could not have been nicer. Breakfasts were more than adequate. Terrific stay for a great price.

Boutique hotel formerly a private residen
This hotel is located in the old town of Quito close to many important sites.It was formerly a private residence dating back to the 19thc and is decorated to capture the feel of that era. Most everyone of the staff was very pleasant.

This is a gem of a boutique hotel, hidden behind a nondescript street front in the center of Quito historical district. I'm amazed that it is not more often frequented (there were relatively few visitors during my July trip). The hotel is located near the center of the historical center, national theater, churches an basilicas--all perhaps 5 minutes walk. My room was completely quiet, comfortably heated, with very comfortable bed. Everything was immaculately clean and WiFi was reliable if occasionally a little slow. The interior is decorated in a rich combination of paintings and lovely wood paneling and colonial style furniture. It really is stunning. Breakfast (free) was made to order and served on tables laid out with linen and fresh roses, by a uniformed waiter in white gloves. The staff were consistently smiling, eager to help. Dinner at the hotel is expensive ($27) and I chose to eat at several of the excellent restaurants in the area (also quite expensive, but more variety). In general, be aware that restaurants and cafes that are listed in Lonely Planet, Travel Advisor, and the like are likely to have somewhat inflated prices, and are significantly more expensive that areas outside the historic district or in Cuenca, for example.
