"We loved the hotel! It was gorgeous and homey—looked exactly like its photos. The staff were so friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was fantastic. The view from breakfast was unbelievable—complete with a vinyl music serenade. It was really great."
"The hotel was gorgeous, located in a historic part of town. Staff members were friendly, kind, and helpful-they helped us get our tours booked and additionally helped with transportation from the airport following a long flight. I enjoyed beginning each morning eating the delicious, made to order breakfast with a wide variety of fruit available as well. I would stay here again."
"Beautiful hotel and the staff were extremely helpful. They communicated with me a lot beforehand to help with checking in and my transfer from the Quito airport."
"We had a wonderful stay. The staff was extremely helpful, friendly, and welcoming throughout our visit. The colonial-style atmosphere is beautiful and exceptionally well preserved, giving the hotel a unique charm and character.
The bathroom was also a highlight — very recently renovated, modern, clean, and comfortable. The location is strategic, making it very convenient to explore the area and get around.
Overall, a charming hotel with excellent service, a beautiful historic atmosphere, and a...
"This is one of the nicest hotels I’ve ever stayed in wonderful location, spotlessly Clean wonderful shower, helpful staff I can’t think of anything I would change"
"The hotel staff was exceptionally friendly and the breakfast was great! They also helped us with rides to and from the airport. Our room was near the entrance so it was a little noisy, but not too bad and the beds were really comfortable. I’d definitely stay here again."

Interactive Science Museum is just one of the attractions in La Magdalena, Quito so you might want to stop by during your trip. If you want to experience more of the culture Quito has to offer, head to El Panecillo, Calle La Ronda, and Plaza de San Francisco.
The environment at the hotel was extremely welcoming, the service was great and the room was well equipped and clean. I particularly enjoyed the walking tour with Santiago, who was very thorough with his explanations and showed us the best of Quito’s beautiful historical town! Even though I was traveling solo, I never felt alone because of the staff. I would definitely recommend this place to any travellers looking for a more personal and traditional trip in Quito!
The hotel is located in the historic center so walkable to all the sites. It's a lovely hotel and the rooms are large. The service is exceptional! Everyone was so friendly and helpful. I would absolutely stay here again.
I chose this hotel for its proximity to Quito's Plaza Grande and for the hotel's own plaza to show those traveling with me some of the architectural style, knowing that we wouldn't have a lot of time in Quito. But when we arrived we were blown away!
This hotel is one of the most charming I've ever seen after travels on five continents. It is very spacious but never felt busy. After you go through the lobby it opens up into the large plaza shown in the pictures. From my quick walk around, it...
We stayed at Hotel Casa Gardenia for two lovely nights. It's located on a very quiet, nondescript cobblestone street just a few blocks from the Plaza Grande. The owners and staff were all very helpful and gave us a map of the area with recommendations on sites to visit. If you like to just walk around and explore, then the Hotel is in a great location for doing just that. We explored almost all of Old Town Quito without ever having to hire a driver. The Hotel has a lovely sitting area with a...
My stay was great! I really appreciated the airport shuttle/ transfer. The property is lovely! The staff was very accommodating and the breakfast was delicious!
What a lovely property. Very historic and the plants and wall paintings give it a welcoming touch. Excellent friendly service, especially from Daniel. Breakfast was also very decent. Very good location in historical center, but the only drawback is that the hotel is on a street that has a lot of noisy bars. Best to request the very quiet rooms in the back. Otherwise a perfect stay.
Location: perfect for us, walking distance to Old town, lovely view of Virgen de Panecillo from veranda and dining room. Has a very relax atmosphere. Wifi is great! Check in was easy, staff greeted us everytime we come back from tour or just strolling in the city. Food in the restaurant is delicìous, breakfast is just amazing with fruits, toasted Quinoa with yogurt and fresh coffee. Lastly, staff is super awesome, Kevin, James and bright eyed lady (sorry forgot her name) took an extra mile by...
I’ve traveled all over the world, five countries in the last 12 months. I have to say that this hotel had the best customer service I’ve ever seen. I was treated like a king as a regular traveler. I never leave reviews but I want the next traveler to Quito to find this gem.
I arrived very late. The hotel owner was there to greet me and check me in. They accommodated a later breakfast time. Was very happy and would stay again!
This hotel was wonderful all around. If you are looking for something fancy then this place is not for you, but if you are looking for something that feels like staying in a friend's home then you will love this. This place feels more like a B and B than a hotel. The service is top-notch. They will arrange airport pickup and dropoff for you. It is located in the old town close to all the churches and museums. It is family-owned and run and everyone is so nice and friendly. Breakfast is included...
Spent 4 nights at this hotel in Feb 2018.
It is located within an easy 3 minute walk to Plaza Grande on Venezuela St. Tell your taxi driver "Venezuela y Olmedo" that will get you to the nearest corner. The hotel is above a gift shop so you have to be let in/out by the staff. There is a buzzer at the door, and they answer quickly. This is an extra security measure and was not an inconvenience.
Staff was excellent, attentive, and eager to help. Breakfasts were excellent and cooked as...
Hotel Mama Cuchara is a lovely boutique hotel with a great location. The breakfast is delicious and the team took great care of us. We loved our stay there and would absolutely come back and stay again next time we are in Quito.
I was very impressed with both the people and the facilities. I traveled alone to a place that was completely strange to me. I never felt alone. Everyday at breakfast (very tasty) the staff made sure that my plan for the day would work. They had a sincere interest in my well being and my experience in Ecuador. I would whole heartedly recommend this hotel. They made my trip wonderful.
Exceptional hotel located centrally in Quito! The staff were extremely helpful, friendly and kind. The house is beautiful. Breakfast was delicious. The bedding was top notch, I didn’t want to wake up! But the best part which I will miss throughout the rest of my travels was getting a massage on site each day from Darwin. How nice to have a 90 minute massage after a day of exploring. Don’t skip booking a massage!
