The hotel is in the heart of the old year. It should be noted very friendly and professional staff. There is a beautiful terrace on the 3rd floor with an amazing view of the old town. Of particular note is the highest quality massage in the spa.

This is a beautiful and historic hotel in the heart of downtown Quito. The staff was incredibly accommodating and made the entire experience elegant. It is on the Plaza San Francisco and is next to a beautiful cathedral. Just take into account extra time to get into and out of the area by car as the streets are very narrow and usually congested. Loved the property and would definitely come back. The best and most beautiful hotel in Quito!
