Fodor's Review:

This place's name sounds like that of a restaurant—and, indeed, the Sunday brunches are a Quito institution—but it is better known as one of Ecuador's premier boutique lodgings. The brilliant bougainvillea over the front gate lets you know that this colonial-style hotel—formerly the Center for Arts and Culture of the French Embassy—is something special. The wood-beamed lobby glows when there's a fire in the stone-trim hearth. A mezzanine above leads to the inn's comfortable guest rooms (some warmed by fireplaces). A popular café off the lobby serves breakfast and lunch. All rooms here are no-smoking. Pros: Homey atmosphere. Cons: Dark rooms.

  • Hotel Details: 18 rooms, 8 suites
  • In-room: no a/c, no TV.
  • In-hotel: restaurant, laundry service, Internet terminal, no-smoking rooms.
  • Credit Cards: AE, DC, MC, V

Terribly Sorry Reed

You might have stay at a different hotel. In my experience room 1 which is a suite is by far the best room in Quito - Ecuador so a word of advise, cheap is not the way of traveling specially in a dolarize economy such as the case of Ecuador.

Room: 5.0 Atmosphere: 5.0 Service: 5.0 Value: 5.0 RATING: 5.0
