Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The location was superb, right in the heart of the historic district, making exploring the city a breeze. The rooms were cozy and quiet, although the heavy comforter made it a bit too warm for my liking. The service was outstanding, with the staff always ready to help and provide excellent recommendations. The dining options were good, offering a variety of choices to suit different tastes.
The hotel's rooms, with upscale furnishings and bathroom amenities, were just as beautiful as the lobby that looks out on one of the primary plazas. Although the room was quite large, it appeared a bit worn. The service, while being more helpful than visible, was superb with a variety of amenities available. The location was fabulous for exploring the city center by foot, yet not ideal for exploring within Quito. The dining experience was good but could have been more attentive. Overall, the hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives, ensuring a memorable stay.
The hotel offers an amazing stay with fabulous rooms featuring 2 double beds instead of 1, offering great views of some of the 'old city' and surrounding mountains. The staff was beyond helpful, making our stay truly memorable. However, the dining options were slightly limited.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms offered great views of the old city and surrounding mountains, and were very nice and clean. The service was extremely helpful and well informed, making my experience even more enjoyable. The location was perfect, right on Plaza San Francisco, and the dining experience was very good with a great selection of options. The only downside was the ongoing construction around Plaza San Francisco.
Staying at the hotel was a wonderful experience. The rooms were spacious, modern, and offered a quiet and comfortable retreat. The service provided by the staff was exceptional, making me feel welcomed and valued throughout my stay. The location of the hotel was fantastic, right in the heart of the old city with plenty of exciting opportunities nearby.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were spacious, quiet, and clean with 14-foot ceilings and a massive all-marble bathroom, creating a warm and elegant atmosphere. The view across the Plaza was just breathtaking. The service was top-notch, meeting all my needs seamlessly. The location allowed for easy exploration of the city center by foot, right on the Plaza San Francisco in Quito's old town. The dining experience was excellent, with a la carte service and delicious options. Overall, a fantastic choice for a memorable stay.
