What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
This restored Republican-era manor in Quito's historic center operates as a private residence with guest rooms.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Parque El Ejido is two blocks away, and the colonial historic center is a short taxi ride south.
The rooms
Garden rooms look out onto mature palms, and the penthouse terrace faces Saint Teresa Church.
At the table
The forty-seat dining room serves Ecuadorian-Italian dinners, and mornings begin with local fruits and made-to-order dishes.
How it began

The 1933 mansion housed Quito's high-society Club Pichincha for decades before undergoing a seven-year restoration.
