We enjoyed our stay at Casa Gangotena from the moment we walked in the door. The hospitality of all the staff was wonderful. It is located on the Plaza of the historical section of town, so easily accessible to many of the famous old churches and a great place to wander the streets. We ate at the restaurant for dinner...

We spent 2 nights at this hotel...large room, comfortable bed, very spacious bathroom. Rooms are quiet even if there is noise in the plaza. Breakfast is included and they have a good selection of hot/cold foods. We had dinner one evening and I would describe the food as good but not gourmet. The service in the restaurant and hotel was...

We arrived after 36 hours of travel at 1:30 am. (We were pleasantly surprised to be welcomed and provided with food and drink at that hour). The hotel is very well appointed and is perfectly situated. Our room was spacious and very comfortable. The restaurant is first rate. We enjoyed pre-dinner drinks and nibbles at, and a great view of... More

We stayed in the Casa Gangotena for 4 nights in total. 2 before we ventured into the amazon and 2 after. Both stays were brilliant! The hotel and rooms are done up in luxurious fashion and the neoclassical style of the premises really adds a touch of class. The high tea that comes with the room rate too was most... More

We recently stayed for three nights at this fantastic hotel. One of the early century properties that used to belong to Gangotena family and was converted into a boutique hotel. The historically significant Italianate mansion was befitted with all the modern facilities and located right on the Plaza San Francisco. Although we didn't have a plaza view room, we were... More

An excellent hotel all round, in a great location overlooking San Francisco Square. There is a great view of the square from the roof terrace. The rooms are very comfortable and quiet. Excellent buffet breakfast. Charming and helpful service.

What a wonderful hotel in the center of the old town of Quito. We stayed here three different times over a 2 week trip to Ecuador that included Quito, the Amazon and the Galapagos (see other reviews). The staff could not have been more friendly, helpful and professional. Anything we wanted or needed was taken care of immediately and with... More
