We were staying at a hotel in Cotacachi & went to the market in Otavalo....I had heard about this beautiful hotel in Otavalo & we decided to go there for lunch. Well, we were totally enchanted by the beauty of the hotel, its wondeful patio, the gardens, & of course the views of the mountain peaks off in the distance.... More

I have brought tour groups to Otavalo a few times, and this has been the best facility. The location is excellent and the staff are helpful. They make every attempt to accomodate. I would definitely stay here again. More

We stayed at La Posada for four nights in early May 2012 and prior to arriving I had chosen to stay there because of all the wonderful comments left on tripadvisor. I highly recommend this hotel if you pass through or decide to stay in Otavalo. The staff was exceptional, friendly and highly accommodating to every need that we had... More

We stayed at La Posada for four days for our honeymoon and we simply loved it. Everything from rooms to common spaces was beautifully decorated and spotless. The staff was amazing and made us feel right at home. Breakfasts included with the rooms were simple but filling and fresh (omelets, fruit salads, granola, breads etc.). The location of the hotel...

We stayed at the Posada for 4 days in March the middle of a ten-week trip through South America, and it was one of the true highlights of our entire 75 days on the road. The staff are extremely helpful, and the food is very good with much more variety than one usually finds, even in relatively high-end hotels and... More

My family stayed in Otavalo at La Posada del Quinde for 1 week. Originally, we were going to stay for 2 days, but the town has so much to offer and this hotel is amazing! Seriously, a home away from home. Maggie, the owner, is warm, thoughtful, kind and generous and always around to help. My four children fell in... More

If you're traveling to Ecuador, plan to stay in the smaller town of Otavalo, north of the capital, Quito. And if you do choose Otavalo, the only place to stay is La Posada del Quinde. Maggie Reniers, a young California ex-pat owns, energetically operates and maintains a fabulous, charming establishment. Your room includes breakfast which you'll order off the menu.... More

We stayed here for 2 nights recently. Otavalo is a town of about 40,000 located 2 hours drive north of Quito. Otavalo is known as the hub of an artisan area and there are several other towns nearby. Posada Quinde is in town and an easy walk to the markets. The owner, Maggie, is a highlight. Very nice and very... More
