We needed a place to stay for a couple of nights in between going to Cotopaxi and then to then Galapagos. We were taken aback with the decor--it is a bit outdated and funky (the mural in the dining area and the lady in the waiting area) but as we were there, the decor became charming. The room was very... More

Convenient location to local attractions, great experience at this boutique hotel. Friendly staff, great value at this traditional Ecuatorian hotel just a few blocks from the Plaza Foch, just like Leidseplein in Amsterdam. I really enjoyed it and I will truly recommend it!

Funky small hotel outside of New Town with lots of charm. We stayed in the Quito Room which was a suite with the bathroom up a flight of stairs on a balcony. Very helpful staff who assisted me in recovering a lost vest and provided good recommendations for restaurants. We were able to walk most places and felt quite safe,... More

The Sol de Quito really depends on what you are looking for. It is not in the central historic area, it is not in the middle of all the restaurants and hotels of la mariscal, but then that is the very thing that makes it a pleasant and quite place. I arrived late at the airport and wanted someplace not... More

The staff was prompt and courteous from the reservation stage to our time there. Good eggs with our breakfast. We will go back. We did find the pillows a little hard and large but other than that great stay.

I have stayed at the hotel several times, they have a very friendly staff, free wifi, great breakfast. The rooms have recently been updated with softer, more comfortable beds and rooms but the hotel is still a bit outdated throughout their bathrooms and rooms, however they offer clean rooms, hairdryers, shampoo and other amenities. Not a bad place at all... More

The hotel is basically a good hotel with a freindly staff. The rooms are quiet. The staff rinedly and attentive. Downsides are: the beds are hard as a rock (my left hip was actualy bruised when I left after sleeping on the bed for 3 nights). The pillows also are hard. The staff, while very frinedly, are not that knowledgable... More

Nice "local" hotel very close to the center of the city. On a quiet street, clean comfortable rooms with private bath. The staff was very attentive and helpful - (although most did not speak english). Very interesting decor with many unique one of a kind handi-works adorning the interior. Nice breakfast service and dinign area. If you are looking for... More

This was my first trip to South America. I was excitedly anxious but later put at ease. I spent four nights at this location. Polite, attentive, very friendly staff and met all my needs. I requested a pick-up shuttle at the airport, which I found without a problem. The location is on a residential street but its within walking distance... More

I was very disappointed by the poor service at the Sol de Quito. I had booked an airport pickup, but no one came to get me. I had booked a day trip offered by the hotel weeks in advance, but discovered that it was not actually booked until I reminded them at check-in, and they scrambled at the last minute... More
