Casa San Marcos

Nice place in the old town!! Great house and staff. I recommend 100% to all the travels. You will feel safe all the time. Great service. If you’re planning to visit some museum the hotel is the place to be. Had a lot of history between the walls, great antique's.

The hotel is incredible, every detail takes you back in time, reliving the history of Quito. In addition, the rooms are luxurious, comfortable and the hotel service is spectacular. I will definitely stay with you again. Thank you for that memorable experiencie

for my and my familiy was experience unique, because It transports you to the colonial era, each floor, each corner has something to tell.|your location is perfect, nearby churches, museums, place y avenues, you can get there metro of Quito.

Great place to stay within the historic old city (a UNESCO site). This place has a whole lot of personality. Don't expect it to be the most fancy and modern place, but why would you even want that in the _Old_ City? Located on a quiet street, you're within a <5-10 minute walk from the plaza independencia (aka plaza grande), plaza San Francisco and La Ronda. There's no heavy foot traffic and only light street noise without the loads of pedestrians you'd have closer to the big plazas. It's an old and ornate mansion with a couple great shared sitting rooms downstairs. They have a nice selection of local paintings, bags, and scarves for sale. The service was phenomenal. Adriana (Clara, the innkeeper's daughter) met us as we stepped out of customs/baggage claim and together with her husband Jefferson (a cab driver) drove us thru the wet, windy and congested traffic. [Would not recommend renting a car-- taxis are abundant and Uber is available. The old city wasn't built for cars and is in essence a locked grid making walking faster.] The price was quite cheap by international standards and they gave us chocolate and got me a sim card on the way. Apparently you need a locals ID number to set up the SIM and they really helped with that and to get it up and running. Breakfast was delightful: coffee/tea/hot chocolate, fruit plate, and eggs or yogurt/granola. Paired with a great view of La Virgen, it's a great way to start the day. If I could do it again, the only thing I would change is to request a rear-facing room. Ours was mostly street-facing (not too loud for us but could be if you're a light sleeper) but the bathroom did look out to La Virgen de Panecilla (the Mary statue atop the hill).

I cannot rate our stay here highly enough. The staff were kind and competent and took care of us like family. The breakfast and the coffee were delicious and the house, a colonial era mansion designed by a famous Ecuadorian architect, is unbelievably beautiful and is full of amazing art chosen carefully by its owner who is an art dealer herself. ||The owner, Myra, is a powerhouse, well known in Quito not only for her former gallery but for the radio station she founded. She not only knows everything about the city, the architecture, the churches, and the culture, she is also a wonderful person and we are blessed to have met her. ||Each room is unique and gorgeously furnished with some antique and some modern furniture. Our room had a breathtaking antique armoire. The bathrooms are very well done and modern with tiled waterfall showers and are immaculate.||The property is exactly where you want to be in the colonial part of the city within walking distance of museums, churches, restaurants, and Independence Square.

We loved our first nights in Ecuador at Casa San Marcos. Daniele was very welcoming and helpful with check in and local activities. Our room was beautiful, with a gorgeous view and a private balcony! The breakfast room and lounge are beautifully decorated. Breakfast was perfect as well. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!

Basic great value accommodation on the edge of the Historic centre. The Hotel was perfect for a short acclimatising stop over at the start of our holiday. The manager Hernan and his lovely wife were so welcoming and went out of their way to be helpful. We will be back soon.

A historical hotel, full of art, warm and cozy. Clean and beautiful decorated||rooms. They give you a tour thru the hotel, I've returned twice, and always find something different. This time they had a folkloric show for the clients with a delicious dinner. All for US$30.00. The employees go out or their way to serve you.. I || was at room 8, it is unique, great view . The owner gave us a walking tour thru the Historical Center.
