Great one night stay at casa alquima. We’re just stopping over before our land tour. We had booked the family room which had 3 beds and was easiest the biggest room in the hacienda. Checkin/checkout was smooth and the breakfast was exceptional. Also walking distance to all the major attractions. Also felt safe due to the fob security. Highly recommended.

Unique property with intriguing character. The staff were super helpful, breakfast was fresh, healthy and delicious, the rooms were clean and comfortable. Near to historical sites, easy to walk. WiFi was great, warm water in the shower, unlimited purified drinking water free of charge. Only complaint was the road noise was a bit loud for a light sleeper early in the morning.

Hotel was in a great location and easy to walk to everything! Breakfast was simple but delicious. Staff were helpful. However, communication prior to the stay was very poor (taking days or weeks to respond, if at all) and then even though they confirmed in writing that they would pick us up from airport, they never showed up! We were left waiting at the airport at 3am and ended up catching a taxi. Also, our toilet (room 10) was faulty the whole time and wouldn’t flush properly. Everytime we mentioned it, they came to ‘fix’ it but it would only last one or two flushes and then not work again. No attempt to move us or offer compensation.

Corner room was much nicer with 3 big windows facing the church square. Hot water worked fine this time. Ask for room #4, avoid #5 as hot water wasn't working and it is pretty dark.

This hotel was the best thing about my trip to Quito. Amazing building hundreds of years old. Big rooms plus lots of couches to sit overlooking the lovely courtyard. Lovely breakfast. But the main attraction was the really friendly and welcoming staff. A great find. Thanks!
