This is an amazing historic building. It has a great atmosphere, phenomenal features, and the quirks and noise that come with a historical building.

Perfect location in the historic old town. So quaint and beautiful and we felt it was a good value for the money. Went all the way to the top observation platform and flew my drone capturing the rolling majesty of Quito. You can walk to many attractions and lots of food options nearby. I want to stay again.

We loved our stay here. The staff was kind and friendly, even though we arrived very late at night (after 2AM). The beds were very comfortable, and the breakfast was ample. The location was also convenient for walking to the Historic Center. And the view from the rooftop was thrilling! We could see Cotopaxi in the distance. We would absolutely stay here again.

The pics posted by Expedia reflect what the hotel looks like. It is an amazing property with great location if you want to be the Colonial or Historic part of Quito but the hotel doesn’t offer any outlets to eat or bar to drink, the room where I stayed at is was super small, they provided with an old, enfasis on the OLD towel, a very very very small soup and that was it. The bed was terrible, noisy and the mattress hard as a rock! I STAYED AT ROOM 23, don’t request or stay on that room. Staff… I don’t even know what to say… I don’t think that I’d like to stay there again

The staff of this location are exceptional. There was delicious made to order breakfast every morning. We relied heavily on the front desk staff since we speak little Spanish. They recommended lunch spots, called us taxis, and helped at every opportunity. The hotel is older but very clean. The front door is locked at all times and the front desk buzz you in and out. This added security helped us to feel safe at all times. I would definitely stay there again and recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a worry free stay.

The hotel is situated in an historic home - unique and quirky. It’s very old, 5th oldest home in Quito, so don’t expect modern amenities. However, the staff were amazingly helpful and the rooms were very clean. It’s a bit loud as located right off a busy street. we were there during Carnival so lots of festivities.

This hotel was absolutely amazing. It was stepping back in time but with comfort and great service. The breakfast included was so delicious with fresh fruit, fruit juices, eggs, pastries and delicious coffee, and served to our table. All the men who worked the front desk helped in whatever information, taxi needs, extras we needed. Thank you Hotel San Francisco de Quito!!

The hotel is centrally located within easy walking distance of many of the main sites in the Historical Center. The staff are friendly and helpful. A couple caveats… if you are in room 8, there is a lot of road noise at all times of the day and night. The floors are very creaky.

The staff is amazing. They are helpful and will do whatever they can to advise on quick and thoughtful matters. The building is aged and has challenges expected for the hotel age. Water is not always hot, walls are thin and rooms are not independently heated. It’s a great stay due to the central location however, there’s major road noise.

The hotel is a little gem. The service is wonderful. Its location in the historic center is extremely convenient, with everything within walking distance. The breakfast is quite complete. The only downside is that in the historic center, everything quiets down after 8:30 PM. So, in the evening, even finding a place to eat can be a bit challenging.
