Amazing hotel,perfect location highly recommended

Perfectly located right in the heart of Quito on Independence Plaza, yet very private and quiet. In a classic older building, so beautifully finished and wonderfully furnished. Rooms are luxurious, spacious and very comfortable. I stayed twice, and each room was fantastic. Just steps away are great restaurants, the grand cathedrals, shopping, and the vibrant street scene Quito is famous for. But above and beyond the facility, is the amazing staff! No one could be more gracious, friendly, helpful and kinder than these wonderful folks! Simply, they are Ecuadorians, the best people you will meet anywhere. What an enjoyable and memorable stay I had! Lawrence

Hotel was like a jig saw puzzle with lots of stairways and areas. Still had construction going on. Rooms were very nice but no privacy unless you close your curtains. Room safes did not work in either of our rooms. You cannot flush toilet paper due to old pipes. Area did not feel very safe but we did not need to leave the hotel without a guide since the dining in the hotel was great. Overall I would recommend this hotel.
