First of all, the hotel building itself is a piece of history almost 500 years. Second, unbeatable location, able to walk to all major historical landmarks easily. It is a very safe hood. There are plenty of restaurants around, next door to a grocery store. Hotel staff are very friendly.

I recently stayed at Hotel San Francisco de Quito, and I can’t recommend it enough! The location is absolutely perfect—just a short walk from all the must-see tourist spots, making it super convenient to explore the city. The hotel itself is charming and comfortable, with attentive staff who truly make you feel at home. I loved being able to stroll around and soak in the local culture. If you’re visiting Quito, this is definitely the place to stay!

An incredible historic hotel in the walkable historic center of Quito. The staff were friendly and helpful. They provided great advice and recommendations. They helped set up transportation to the airport. It felt safe and secure and had wonderful access to the roof to see the skyline.

The history of this building is unbelievable! We had a balconey room and was able to view the street and people walking by. The staff bent over backwards to fulfill your wish and gave much needed information to us tourists. The breakfast was fresh and delightful. Easy walk to many historical places. The inside courtyard and rooftop area where a plus. Many plants gave everything a warm feeling. Securty was good and we felt safe. We would definitely stay again. P.S. we were surprised to find no heat or a/c, but the wool blankets on the bed kept us cozy warm. So it was not a problem.

Fantastic hotel

The staff were fantastic, they helped me see tour options and arranged the taxi pick up and drop off for the airport run. They explained where things were e.g. the metro station and where my pick up point was for a tour I was going on. They were really friendly and professional, always smiling and happy to help make my stay the best. The hotel itself was also amazing, the atmosphere was really good and friendly. I’ll recommend and will stay again if I’m ever back in Quito. It’s also very close to lots of attractions. Thank you for a great stay.
