I took myself to Peguche for 6 nights and days (very near Otavalo) to this recommended hostal and restaurant for a brief holiday away from Quito where I live. I was looking for quiet, cows, handmade tapestries and trekking. It was a good choice. Making the arrangements is a little haphazard but the Dutch/indigeous family who owns and runs this... More

Old and very cold room. Internet is one dollar extra and doesn't work in room or restaurant. In restaurant they don't speak english. Don't go there if you're a single traveller and the hotel is empty like I had. Restaurant is only place with fire but opens at 5 o clock en not an minute earlier. Receptionis very unfriendly, everything... More

I love Hosteria Aya Huma. We spent a day in Otavalo & then walked up to Peguche (nice walk) & spent 2 more nights in Peguche. It's a very small place but perfect if you are looking to relax and enjoy a magical place. It is very close to the Sacre Waterfall, which is worth visiting (preferably early in the... More

If you're looking to stay in the Otavalo area, but want a peaceful, inexpensive place to stay you should check out Aya Huma! The town of Peguche is small and not very well off, but the people are friendly. They work very hard, as you will see everyday when they walk past herding cows, carrying large bundles or working in... More

Peguche is an indigenous village located adjacent to Otavalo (30-40 minute walk or a 10 minute easy bus ride). Aya Huma is a owned by a Dutch-Indigenous couple how have deep connections to the...

Spent $16 on a private room here. Found out after that I could get a room for $6 in town. (This hostal is in the next town over) Spent $10 getting my laundry done here, they do it by the pound. No meals are included, restaurant is very nice though. Local kids from the town were a bit noisy at... More
