It is a good option to be a few days

I went to Ambato because of job issues. The hotel received me with an early check in without additional fees, I appreciated it. The location is perfect to work there, because you have all important buildings close.

Excellent location and super friendly staff

Hotel is ideally located in the heart of downtown Ambato, within close walking distance to the Cathedral, main market, and a couple of parks. The hotel staff were all extremely friendly and helpful in suggesting activities and offering restaurant recommendations. This was the perfect location for experiencing Carnival!
