Liked: Cleanliness
The building itself is the most interesting part of the experience, and worth exploring. It's in a convenient location and offers great views. Our room was comfortable and beautifully furnished. The staff we encountered are bi-lingual (at least) and very helpful. The breakfasts provided were tasty but also among the healthier I've experienced in a hotel. We enjoyed our stay and would use this hotel again. My only criticism is that they are a bit stingy with niceties like pillows (2 hard ones provided; softer available by request), bottled water (none in-room), and washcloths (zero). The built-in hairdryer in Rm 8 is hazardous and should be replaced.

Room was very basic, but clean. Bed was HARD and pillow was flat, but we were only there for 3 nights, so we made do. Staff was helpful and breakfast was fresh. Staff arranged our airport transfers seamlessly. There is no elevator, but we could keep our excess bags in a secured storage room instead of having to lug them up 4 flights of stairs. We felt safe here.

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.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The common areas, the art work, and the staff were all top notch. The room itself was OK and the cleaning could be improved. The location for the centro historico was very good, but the area looks somewhat seedy later in the evening. Take a cab. Otherwise, the price was attractive. It's not a place you want to stay at for more than a couple of days.

We had an overall very positive experience staying at this hotel. The property itself was nice and generally clean. Housekeeping did a great job with daily service, including making the beds and tidying up the room. That said, there were a few small details that could be improved, such as empty bottles occasionally being left on the patio areas. Breakfast was simple but good, and it was a nice way to start the day. One minor inconvenience was that getting extra towels sometimes took a bit of time, especially during busier periods. The location was definitely a highlight. Being situated in the Old Town area made it incredibly easy to walk around and explore, and we found the people in the area to be very friendly and welcoming. There were a couple of drawbacks worth noting. The hotel does not have air conditioning, which wasn’t ideal, and on a few nights it was quite loud outside. Since opening the windows lets in a lot of noise, it made sleeping a bit challenging at times. Overall, I would rate this hotel a solid 4 out of 5 for Quito. With just a few improvements, it could easily be even better.

The staff is very courteous, but breakfast is basic - just bread, juice, fruits, eggs and coffee with no options. The rooms are very small without windows. Only good thing about the hotel is its central location. Staff do not speak English.

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!
