The Hotel is beautiful, the food was superb, the service was also top notch, their version of a mojito was one of the best I've had ,their breakfast buffet is nice too. The location is awesome, steps from the San Francisco Church and museum.
Very nice 👌 Excllent breakfasts! And they provided bottled and distilled water for my CPAP machine. Also Concierge Desk provided assistance with tours and dining
I loved everything about this property. The personalized touches, safety, spa, afternoon, tea, absolute, beautiful gardens, and architecture. The views were outstanding. If I could, I would live there.
The hotel is in the heart of the old year. It should be noted very friendly and professional staff. There is a beautiful terrace on the 3rd floor with an amazing view of the old town. Of particular note is the highest quality massage in the spa.
The Casa Gangotena was perfection! The hotel itself is beautiful and the staff was gracious and attentive. We stayed in a very comfortable, large room with a spectacular view of the Plaza de San Francisco. We enjoyed breakfast and a wonderful dinner at the hotel and loved that the menu included local cuisine. Plus, the prices were reasonable - we would have easily paid twice as much at home for a meal of the same caliber. You also shouldn't miss a late afternoon cocktail on the rooftop!
Gorgeous power, beautiful rooms. Charges for additional water above the small 2 bottles provided daily, which is laughable considering the cost of the hotel room.
Breakfast was fabulous.
Wonderful historic property that has been updated and has both warmth and style. The staff pampered my family and introduced us to Ecuadorian new year traditions on the rooftop terrace with the other guests that was a memorable and unexpected way to ring in the new year. The restaurant is a fabulous showcase of Ecuadorian cuisine and excellent cocktails and fine wine. First class in every respect. I recommend without reservation.

Beautiful Building, Great Service and excellent Location!
Everything was perfect. Highly recommend this hotel. Staff was very accommodating. They even delivered a boxed breakfast at 3 AM so we could be on our way to the airport. Just an amazing experience.
This Hotel is phenomenal. Perfectly located in the heart of Quito historic district. Hotel is fully renovated and staff is very friendly. Food in the restaurant is delicious. Café quiteño experience between 4-6pm at the lobby area is great!
I have stayed at places all over the world. This Hotel is top of the food chain.you can ask them for anything they find away to get it done. This place on all levels is a 10.
The hotel location was perfect.. the room was nice and overlooked the San Francisco plaza.. the food was good too.. the staff weren’t so helpful when arrived, but the next day this was changed…
