Casa Foch

Great value for money, high end class service and attention from the staff, something you don’t expect in this price range! The best hosts in Ecuador in my experience.

It was such a nice colonial house with vintage settings but remodeled facilities. Bed was very comfy and the beddings felt very high quality compared with other hostels I stayed. Spacious room with double curtains. The receptionists were super nice and attentive. On Tuesday evening I slept with minimal noise outside. On Wednesday evening the party started so there was some karaoke noise on Plaza Foch. I wasn't very bothered by it and ear plug came in handy and I slept with no problem.

Great looking rooms and more than friendly service at a affordable price. They go from contact a trusted taxi to very specific local recommendations. The hotel is a few steps from Plaza Foch, a great place to visit at night. Also nearby lots of restaurants, coffee and chocolate shops, pharmacies, barbers, etc. For the moment, no credit card are accepted, hopefully they can fix that soon.

We used this hotel for our study abroad and the staff was and is amazing. They are willing to answer any and all questions and helped us find stores we needed to go to when we needed extra supplies. The rooms are all nature themed and really well put together Everything is very clean and you can tell that they put a lot of love into the hotel The location is okay, a bit sketchy for travelers but that's going abroad. The walls are VERY thin, but not so much that normal talking volume is an issue, but enough that excited talking and outdoor noises are very apparent. All in all. Would stay here again

Homey and inviting. Great location to walk to many restaurants. Staff was incredibly sweet and accommodating....going beyond the call of duty to be helpful. Our rooms were very comfortable. Great breakfast every morning. Weekends can be a bit noisy from the local clubs...but that's why this is a "happening" neighborhood! Lots of good energy all around.

The staff are very welcoming and attentive, and the place is clean. Stylish, too. Agree on noise levels, but the neighbors (what sounded a karaoke place nearby) shut off their aggressively loud sound system at midnight (on a Monday night). The remaining street sounds can be mitigated rather well by use of a white noise app.

Our rooms were lovely and our hosts attentive. Breakfast was great, fruit, toast, eggs or yogurt and granola, all included. It is located in the 'New Town' area, a short taxi ride to Old Town, Teleferico (gondola ride up the mountain), or the Botanical Gardens. Our hosts were always willing to get us a reputable taxi driver. There are many good restaurants in the area. Plaza Foch is just a block away.

I cannot say enough about the staff at Casa Foch. Warm, friendly, helpful....truly the best customer service I've received in Ecuador. Which was a saving grace for an otherwise lackluster accommodation. The location is convenient to the bustling Foch Square, which brings with it the noise of any party scene. The room itself was adequate, though mine was lacking in ventilation (my windows opened into a fully enclosed "courtyard"), and I found myself overheating. Bathroom was clean and well stocked, but you DO have to request that the hotel turn on the hot water before you take a shower (something with the pumps)... All said, a decent bargain for the price and location. And I'll say again--truly exceptional customer service.
