Top Quito Historic Center Hotel Reviews

Hotel Plaza Grande

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was great. Staff were all wonderful."

Hotel Patio Andaluz

10/10 Excellent

"Unique historic property convenient for walking around the old quarter of Quito including the Independence Square and San Francisco Plaza. Note, traffic is frequently backed up in this area's narrow streets and your Uber or taxi may take awhile on the last three blocks. Spacious rooms, traditionally furnished, with modern bathrooms and excellent wifi service. Comfortable bed. All rooms face an inner roofed courtyard and have no exterior windows. My room also had an unusual glassed-in air shaft containing a very large potted plant. Restaurant had good service and well-prepared traditional dishes. The breakfast buffet had a wide array of hot and cold choices. An excellent value overall."

Hotel San Francisco de Quito

10/10 Excellent

"This is a very quaint boutique-style hotel located in the heart of the central historical district. It is in a Spanish Colonial house from the 1500's and has a lot of that period ambiance. They currently are serving only breakfast in the hotel restaurant, but it is a very good "American style" breakfast with eggs cooked to order, and various sides such as bowls of fresh fruit, breads, bacon, and freshly squeezed juices. Our room was not "fancy" and all of the rooms are different layouts. We had a twin room on the second floor. Our family members had a twin room on the second floor as well, but theirs had a loft bed area that was accessed by wrought iron circular staircase. So be sure to check out your room before you move in. Keep in mind for guests with mobility issues that there is no elevator and the stairs have no handrails. There is a rooftop terrace with great city views. The staff was mostly helpful, although asking for an extra pillow was like pulling teeth. I never did get one and my pillow was very thin and hard, which is not good for side sleepers like me. I also use a CPAP machine and could have used a little better pillow support. Maybe I should have mentioned that. That was my only complaint. Overall, if you are looking for a reasonably-priced, centrally-located hotel, this is a good one. They also have luggage storage available, and airport shuttle service, which is basically they call you a cab when you need to go. I would recommend this hotel."

La Casona de la Ronda Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The only thing that was challenging was getting to the hotel since the Uber couldn't take us straight to it and we had to walk down a big hill and weren't entirely sure where we were going. Otherwise everything else at this hotel was wonderful! The breakfast was amazing the room was great, everything was really beautiful. It was a great stay! I loved it - it really embraced the colonial feel!"
