Hotels in Ecuador

We just arrived at Quito before our flight to Galapagos and are staying at the gorgeous Casa El Eden. Just dropping by here to gush about what an amazing place this is, and to recommend this place if you are planning your Galapagos trip and have a stop in Quito. 😊 Both my partner and I travel tons and we both agreed this is possibly the most charming and best place we’ve stayed in. We are so in love with this place. 😍 Location is great and super central, we’ve been able to walk to most places we want to. It also feels safe in this area. Every corner feels very homely, thoughtfully and classily designed and extremely clean. (To the point where I’m walking around the hotel barefooted 😄) The owners Mario and Blanca are also the most thoughtful, kind and generous hosts we’ve ever had, and we really can’t stop singing praises about them. And did I mention that they have a roof top terrace with a great view? 😍

Hostel is beautiful - has a lot of common space and terrace with a view A lot of board games, guitar, beautiful decorations with llamas Food - dinner and breakfast - both big and delicious Social vibe Tea and coffee avalaible all the time

It is a beautiful alternative to the big hotels next to the Airport. The Hotel stuff is super friendly and helpful. Rooms super clean and very quite

- fantastic facilities - felt very secure and safe - very accommodating staff

What an amazing place! The saddest part of our stay was leaving and only having the opportunity to stay for a single night, if time had allowed, we would have stayed a week! The location is perfect for the old historic centre, the cathedral is an easy walk, so much of the historic centre is walkable from here. The staff were so incredible!!! So kind and helpful, with great English and knowledge to share. Nothing was too much trouble, from extra coffee, so booking taxis and restaurants. The breakfast was one of the best meals we've eaten in Ecuador (and we have eaten very well in this country! - but this was a REALLY great way to start our day!) The Tigrillo was a really fabulous Ecuadorian breakfast cooked and presented beautifully. This is such a beautiful property, very well maintained and full of gorgeous murals on the walls, the roof terrace boasts a stunning view of the city sky line and the garden is a wonderful place to enjoy the breakfast. If we get the chance to return to Cuenca, this is the place we will stay for sure, and the place I would recommend to any friends who plan this trip!

This is a great family run place. Oscar and his wife are the friendliest couple and go out of their way to make your stay comfortable. Room was spacious with a great shower. WiFi is fast. We enjoyed a pizza and a beer and a satisfying breakfast. The airport pick up is great and very convenient. We really enjoyed our one night stay.

Location and everything very comfortable

From the very first moment, I felt completely at ease. This place isn’t just beautifully located – it truly has everything you could wish for. A space to relax, recharge, and feel at home. What truly made this stay unforgettable was the incredible hospitality. Javier is one of those rare people you remember – genuinely warm, attentive, and effortlessly kind. It’s clear he loves what he does, and it shines through in every detail. The Royal River Suites & Spa Aparthotel is a true haven – with a stunning pool, delicious breakfast, and rooms that instantly make you feel comfortable and cared for. I’m already looking forward to coming back!

What I liked the most was the exceptionally warm and friendly treatment of the hotel staff. The hotel is a very well preserved old mansion, apparently from the 19th century, with a beautiful architecture. The room was very clean, the bed well made and clean. The bathroom was also impeccable, with clean towels and bath gel in the shower as well as in the sink. It should be noted that unlike many other hotel rooms I have visited, in this case, the hot water temperature could be regulated quite well and smoothly, without the problems that often afflict electric water heaters, in which the hot water supply is cut off due to low flow. Breakfast was balanced, attentively served and well presented. Another detail that the visitor should consider is that the hotel is strategically located in the center of Quito, relatively close to the San Francisco metro station, and much closer to the trolleybus station. It is perfectly possible, as I did, to travel from the Quitumbe bus station to the San Francisco metro station.

Location near to the beach, great view
