Liked: Cleanliness
The hotel had a good breakfast for $5 and Jimmy is awesome. The room was small and had a kitchenette that didn't work. No table or chairs except outside in the courtyard which was nice but cold at night. There was a skylight in the room and the curtains didn't block the light well, so it started getting bright at 6am. There are dogs running around everywhere so you hear them barking at night along with any trucks or motorcycles. The sound insulation was not good. No climate control in the room so it can get chilly. Everyone told me not to go outside after dark unless you take a taxi as the area is not safe. I would probably choose a different hotel if I were to come back to Quito.

Very convenient and comfortable stay. Thanks to G Translate, every question I had was answered. The arranged airport transfer was great, even though my plane was late. Breakfast was good (mixed fresh fruit with a yogurt drizzle, OJ, eggs and ham/cheese sandwich), in a delightful, airy enclosed patio.

Great spot!

Great little spot in La Mariscal! The staff were great, comfortable beds, good breakfast, nice lounge area. Most articles you read about Plaza Foch and La Mariscal are outdated. Covid took a toll on local business and it isn’t nearly as busy of an area as it once was. I highly recommend this place to stay!

I had a wonderful stay at Art Plaza in Quito. It was my first time in Ecuador and Jimmy at the from desk made my trip a wonderful experience. He is so kind and helpful!!! Jimmy gave me so many tips to explore Quito and at the end of the day he will always ask how my day went. He is so adorable. Mary and Carolina very attentive in anything I may need as well. I highly recommend Art Plaza to stay in Quito. It’s centrally located and walking distance to some nice places.

Decepcionante! Não recomendo.

Decepcionante!! Não gostamos da hospedagem. Espaço muito pequeno, cortinas sem black-out, banheiro sem Box de PVC, chuveiro com vazamento na lateral, café da manhã não é bom, pouquíssimas opções e não oferecem para repetir nada, ou seja, você come aquilo que servem a primeira vez e dê por satisfeito. Tomamos duas cervejas e na hora de pagar não aceitavam cartão de crédito nem tinham troco para 20 dólares. Não recomendo!

The staff were very kind and helpful, and the room had good amenities. There were lovely seating areas on the terrace and in the restaurant. Unfortunately we did not feel safe leaving the hotel at night due to the surrounding area, however during the day the hotel is close to the main high street and local parks which are good to check out.
