This is a very beautiful boutique local hotel. The rooms and hotel are accurately reflected in the photographs. The hotel reception and staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. The hotel host personally walked us to a great restaurant, Runa, around the corner since we arrived late and were too tired to navigate ourselves to dinner. Little touches like fresh roses in the room, rose petals on the bed were lovely. The room's furnishings and artwork are charming and embody a historic clonial charm reflective of the nearby basilica, cathedrals, and main square. Location is excellent for walking to the main plaza, the cathedral, presidential palance, nice restaurants, pharmacies, convenience stores, bank/ATM, etc. while feeling like you could observe local daily life of the people. One very nice amenity is that Byron of the hotel reached out in advance to help schedule our airport transfer to and from the hotel and helped accommodate last minute changes to our schedule. Much more convenient and comfortable that using a rideshare app. The driver was prompt, friendly, and made sure we had everything and were on time for our flight. Exceptional service. The only drawback (not the fault of our hotel) was the regional rolling power outages. I recommend bringing a flashlight if you travel during times of outages. We had power for 3-4 hours in the morning and 3-4 hours in the late evening. We were gone on excursions for most of the day time. But there was hot water for showers.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
If I could leave negative stars I would. This hotel is horrible . I saw 2 roaches and something kept biting me in the bed. There were no windows in my room and due to the blackouts no fan and no air conditioning. The room was so hot I could barely breathe. When I told staff about the problems they just denied it all instead of trying to help. I showed them pictures of the roach and they said “ it’s not that room “ it definitely was. I left after one night and they refused to refund the nights I didn’t stay. They will not answer any of messages. I have never had such a horrible experience at a hotel. Please stay away !!!

Mirian runs a very tight ship and insists on showing guests around the old house. Beautifully kept, the hotel is an old house with two inner courtyards. They are covered by glass roofs which protect one from the weather but after a sunny day, leave the rooms rather stuffy at night as there is no cross ventilation. But there is a fan in the room. Laundry is available and hotel is adamant you don’t use the sinks for washing your own smalls. Breakfast provided was modest but v nice. Very clean.

There were no issues with our room - clean, everything worked, quiet, comfortable. The hotel is situated in a great location walking distance to many tourist attractions. It is a very unique and beautiful building where no two rooms look the same - you can tell a lot of effort, thought, and care went into its design and upkeep. Mirian is an excellent host, manager, and owner. She truly cares about the guests and goes above and beyond to make sure you have an excellent stay.

I can’t add to the praise in other reviews. Excellence in every category. Brilliant location, delicious breakfasts (just like mom never made) … kidding mom … excellent bread/croissants/buns, fresh juice and awesome coffee … cleaner than a hospital … very comfortable beds and pillows. Daily housekeeping is over the top. (OCD Warp 10) Laundry is conveniently done on site for a very reasonable charge. (Fifteen item minimum.) It definitely feels like home. Miryam and Karla are sisters to me. They will treat you MUCH better than family. Mange Takk!

This is a great place to stay in centro historico. The property itself is beautiful and the staff are kind and helpful. The rooms are well maintained. The breakfast selection is limited but delicious. There are a number of nice restaurants and bakeries located within a 5 min walking distance. So, especially at night, when the centro historico area can be a bit deserted, you don’t have to walk far to get a meal.

This is the place to stay when in Quito. We were welcomed so warmly by the front desk manager who gave us a review of the interesting historic roots of the hotel, as well as taking us to the rooftop to give us an overview of the city and where to go. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable, and the breakfast was amazing. Shout out to Byron and Karla, and the lovely airport pick up gentleman. All in all very glad I stayed here

Well worth the experience.
This is a very different style hotel if you are used to staying in the big chains. We had a family room booked for my family of 3. My son slept in the loft and loved it. The hotel appears to have been completely restored. Lots of old wooden features and art work. There is a wine cellar where you can purchase a bottle of wine and there is a spiral stair case that takes you to the roof and gives you a GREAT view of the historical area of Quito. We encountered rain every night so we did not get the chance to go to the roof and enjoy a drink. Hotel does provide loaner umbrellas cause when it rains in Quito, it RAINS. This is an old hotel, so the floors do squeak in spots but you get used to it. Staff was amazing, they helped us book a tour and transportation. They also made us breakfast every morning with fresh fruit and eggs. Location is great. You are like 5 blocks to the basilica church in one direction, 4 blocks to a "mall" that has great food options. And 2 blocks to Teatro Sucre which is where a bunch of tour groups pick up.

The hotel location is excellent in the historical part of Quito. It is a beautiful place and the rooms are lovely. If I had one negative comment it would be that as welcoming and friendly the staff are, they are also a bit overkill. An unusual comment for sure but if you do stay at the hotel which I do recommend, you will understand.
