The Good: Great location very near historical Quito and restaurants. Staff friendly just not knowledgeable about getting things done around city. Nice old building. The Bad: The price. We stayed in three different places in Quito the cheapest being $20 and was fine. For price not much of a step up at all. Not all rooms look like that advertised... More

We had booked a room with this hostal and they were to meet us at the Quito airport at 9 pm on March 7th. Noone was there!! we were left high and dry. We called their mobile number and noone answered. There is no excuse for this lack of service. We had a very stressful time on our first night... More

I was so impressed by this hostel. The renovated interior of this historical building is very elegant and comfortable, and the location is perfect for accessing the museums, churches and all the sights of the historic downtown. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, answering all my questions about points of interest, bus and train line locations and schedules, etc.... More

We visited Ecuador in May and stayed at the Hostal Ecuador for several nights before and after the Galapagos. It was both quaint and inexpensive. The manager Dante was incredibly helpful to us, picked us up at the airport upon our arrival, and even recommended a driver/guide for the road trip that 4 of us took through the Andes after... More

I am visiting Quito for the first time (and alone). I arrived late at night, but the hostal offers an airport pick up which is a plus! The seven cosy and clean rooms which all lead/face into the patio are just tastefully done in this old colonial building. The location in the old city is great, closeby the ´La Ronda... More

I went to Ecuador for the first time and I enjoyed my time exploring in Quito. I stayed at The Hostal Ecuador during my visit and it was a very nice environment where the hospitality was at a very good service. The room was kept at a very clean state, with a nice cosy feeling, a private bathroom. The hostal... More

This place should be called a hotel not a hostal. The house is renovated to accommodate groups of all sizes, singles to family suites. I arrived on late on Christmas day and the hotel manager Dante picked me up from the airport (fee) which when arriving in a foreign country on your own late at night is very comforting. The... More
