Hotels Near Carapungo in Quito

We stayed in Room 16 in late June. Some of our travel companions were in other rooms in the new wing -- Rooms 14-17. These rooms were not ready for guest stay. In full disclosure, our travel company made a last-minute booking due to demonstrations in Quito; however, this room would be considered uninhabitable by U.S. standards. We were told that for service, we should send a message to the front desk using WhatsApp. That was difficult because the room had spotty wifi and mobile phone coverage was somewhat weak in the area. For dinner one night, we chose room service. We learned that the link to the restaurant menu was not valid – the menu was different that night. So I walked to the restaurant to get a menu from them and ordered via WhatsApp from the hotel lobby. I’m sure the rooms will be suitable and lovely when live wires are capped; door handles are installed; the wood cabinets are varnished so people can’t get splinters; the leaks in the ceiling are plugged; the rear patio is finished and accessible; a means of contacting the front desk is available; bathroom installation is complete; door handles are installed; wifi reaches the new wing; shower gel is readily available; a hair dryer is included in the room; a luggage rack is made available; furniture is added; the TV is made functional; the fireplace is ready for use; the walkway to the room is given more space before a precarious 2-meter drop-off; the septic smell is flushed out; blackout curtains are installed; etc. Until then, I recommend avoiding these new, incomplete rooms. On the positive side, the hotel manager did what he could to help us make the most of our stay, the front desk staff was exceptionally friendly, and the hotel’s continental breakfast was nicely prepared.

We are leaving for other parts of the country today but really enjoyed my 4 nights here. Mainly local business people - I didn't see any tourists at hotel. But very comfortable - rooms are small but good wifi, lots of outlets, and plenty of hot water. Located about 1/2 hour taxi ride from Ciudad Historico and walking distance to Mariscal. Good breakfast provided each morning. Adrian at front desk was kind enough to get a driver for us for a couple of days to leave the city. They do have a small gym as well. I hope the next places we stay in Banos, Cuenca, and Guayaquil are as nice as this.

We stayed here in late June after our plans to stay in Old Town were scuttled by Quito general strike and demonstrations. We found the hotel to be closer to a regular Holiday Inn rather than a Holiday Inn Express. The room and bathroom were a comfortable size. Comfortable beds and nice bathroom layoutBreakfast spread was kept hot and fresh and featured egges etc and Ecuadorian items. For the early birds there was a cart with coffee and a few breakfast snacks to tide one over till breakfast area opened. The area has a few local restaurants and a couple of restaurants next door. Many things were closed due to the general strike. But the area is a generally pleasant area with Quito's Carolina Park and Artisinal market with an 20 minutes or so walk. The telefrico a short cab ride away. The gym is on a top floor and one could use the equipment while enjoying the skyline views of quito. A nice way to enjoy a workout. Perhaps the best reason to stay here, however, is the staff. Breakfast area staff went out of their way to be helpful and get our day started on a high note. Front desk staff answered questions about the limited options available to guests due to the situation in Quito with honesty and professionalism and helpful advice. Special recognition for Maria at the front desk and German of the concierge staff for their assistance with friendliness and courtesy and above all understanding of the situation in Quito with the requirements of thir tourist guest. Not necessarily an easy task to balance but they did the job and balanced the various things in a marvelously guest friendly way and not skipping a beat in being helpful and effectively communicating with great command of English. Thanks for a good stay in difficult circumstances.

This hotel is very cost-effective. It is run by a local. It is a single-family villa design with a small garden. It is in the city center, 2 kilometers away from Quito Cathedral, and 1 kilometer away from the park. There are many locals selling special snacks in the park, and vaccinations are also available. Very close, about 3 kilometers to anywhere, there are many restaurants and bars nearby, you can cook, many hotels in Quito do not have hot water, this one has hot water for bathing, the hotel in Quito basically does not provide toiletries, you need to bring your own , the price is cheaper than the homestays opened by Chinese people. It is quite like Home Inns in China. The Hanting is of the same level. If you stay for a long time, there is a discount. The average is only a few dozen days. You can go shopping in the street for food. There are many delicacies here. The hotel does not provide toiletries, you need to bring your own toothpaste, toothbrush, shampoo, shower gel and slippers The homestays of the Chinese people are very pitiful. The advantage is that they can provide materials to cook and need ➕5 knives, but the environment is very poor and the price is still expensive

When you book, check out the Cathedral of Quito 3 km. It is actually very tired for 100 minutes of walking up and down the mountain road, especially when you go to the old city to eat and watch the night scene. After that, every day around the Old Town Square, a taxi back to the hotel for 4-5 to 5 dollars is also a small expense. In addition, when it rains outside the third day, the room window leaks!

First, the rooms are huge,comfy and outlook the street below. Great pool and massage services.. the restaurant serves the best food around,eat there most nights and the bar makes the best mojito. Staff is nice and rooms are very clean. A couple issues with reception desk,they lost our laundry and then found it, just had to remind them,the key card kept not working and having to go down to complain

The hotel is in a great location, it is only a 2 minute walk to get to Plaza Grande in the old town. Everywhere is accessible by foot. The 2 guys that work at reception are very friendly and welcoming. The room was clean and the shower great. However I booked a room with air con and a safe, the room did not have either. It seemed that the rooms were all the same so I presume that the information on *********** is incorrect. The room does not have a window so it is very stuffy and hot with no ventilation. It also said at the time of booking that I pay on arrival and cards are accepted. However they did not want to accept a card and kept saying that the machine would not accept the transaction. Other guests reported the same thing. The walls are also very thin, the people in the room next to us were so noisy, the room shook when they were running around their room and you could hear every word of their conversation. Thankfully on my last night they had left and it was very quiet. Guess it is just the luck of how loud people want to be who are in the adjoining rooms. Breakfast was not to my taste but scrambled egg and a bread roll seems to be what is served everywhere in Ecuador, so if you are happy with that then you will be fine. I am not sure I would stay here again, however the location is a real bonus.
