Houseboats in Pichincha

A lovely family run hotel which was a great base in Quito. We stayed here twice at either side of our trip to the Galapagos and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. Everyone was lovely and nothing we asked for was too much. If we're ever back in Quito we are certain to visit again.

The staff could not have done more for us. From the very beginning they were communicative friendly welcoming and when we arrived they were so warm. It was our honeymoon and they’d put some flowers in the room which was such a nice touch. The location is great, the room lovely (albeit not quite soundproof so bring earplugs!!!) we really loved our stay here thank you

The house would go unnoticed from the road but just wait until Mario opens the door to let you in! The quality of the guesthouse is clear to see and the welcome from Mario and his wife Blanca is an absolute delight after a long journey.

Everything was excellent—service, cleanliness, etc. Highly recommended.

A charming small hotel very well situated in the historic centre district just a short walk from the plaza grande. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms well equipped and kept spotlessly clean . The hosts were as charming as they were helpful and made our stay a most enjoyable one.

A unique experience within a beautiful city, Casona D’Alameda was a very worthwhile stay and contributed very positively to our experience of Quito. We stayed for three weeks, during which we travelled for four days to the Galapagos, as well as exploring what Quito has to offer and travelling a little further afield to the towns and monuments surrounding Quito. By staying here, rather than in an non-descript hotel which might leave us feeling that we were in any city in the world, our stay at...

We chose not to stay in Quito city as we needed to be back and forth to the airport. So this hotel offered a good midway point, and we were really glad we chose it. As well as a much shorter ride to and from the airport, the hotel is smart, tidy and comfortable, and has possibly some of the most helpful staff I've ever encountered. We had an issue with one flight, and they did everything they could to help, including lending us a phone for several hours while we were on hold. Martin and Michelle...

Very helpful staff

The stay at the lodge was out of this world. The staff are amazing and care for every need. Couldn’t fault a single thing! Food and drink was exceptional too! And the location is to be seen with your own eyes! Nothing can compare !

The hotel was very good. They brought a kettle to our room. The outdoor pool was heated and the sauna and steam room worked. The airport transfer was reliable. Families with children bought day passes which is good. Will stay again.

The loveliest one night stay at Friends Hotel. Checked me in as soon as I arrived even though it was many hours before check in time (greatly appreciated as I was so tired!) Clean, comfy room with a balcony giving views up the mountain. Delicious breakfast with great views from the rooftop. Couldn't be more accomodating. Wish I had stayed longer, will definitely be back!

Beautiful hotel with stunning views.
