Hotel Casa Alquimia

Beautiful family-owned and run property, a lovely little oasis in the heart of old town Quito. We walked to some museums, churches, and good food. The family is excellent -- they are so hospitable and accommodating and serve the most delicious breakfast each morning. Highly recommend!

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 and served on the upper level with fantastic views of the city. It includes fresh juice, coffee or tea, fresh fruit, eggs and toast. Our flight didn't leave until after midnight on our last day but we checked out and they stored our bags for us the entire day while we did one final tour. We returned and were able to change clothes and even hang out in the lobby area for our taxi to the airport. The room could be a little noisy from the street noise but that's to be expected due to the location(which was excellent). The bed was fairly comfortable but the pillows could have been softer. Not a big deal. If we come back to Quito I will definitely try to stay here again. What a gem of a place.

A very nice Hotel right next to Plaza Santo Domingo. The hotel is family run and the owner is a very nice person who goes above and beyond to help guests. They also offer tour, shuttle and spa/massage services at the hotel. Definitely a place to stay if visiting Quito, I would definitely come back.
