I loved my stay at Casa Gardenia. Location was very convenient to restaurants. I felt safe walking at night to go out to dinner. The hotel was multi level and had a great view of the city on the 3rd floor. Breakfast was good with bread, fruits and eggs. Staff was very nice. I would stay here again.

We loved Casa Gardenia, especially the kindness and friendliness of the family proprietors. We had a morning checkout prior to a midnight flight back to the US, but when I felt ill later (altitude plus maybe some suspect shrimp at dinner), they lent me a room, gratis, to lie down in all afternoon while the others went out in search of the Basilica and artisanal chocolate.

Throughout our stays (we were here two weeks earlier on our way to the Galapagos), they were friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Before our arrival, they offered to arrange for transport to and from the airport, and our taxi driver was both friendly and totally reliable.

The hotel itself is an attractive mixture of a newer interior in the partial shell of an older building, with views over the historic part of Quito from an open-air deck and the breakfast area. They serve a generous breakfast: fresh fruit, eggs, juice, rolls, and a side plate with olives, ham, and cheese. Cereal and milk are available, and of course coffee and tea.

We would absolutely stay there again if we revisit Quito.

Little gem in the clouds

Been here a few times . Great staff and friendly owners. The best view of Quito you can find. Cute hotel in a quaint area of town. Everything you want to do is only blocks away. The new metro in three blocks from the hotel and fantastic. Need anything just ask the owners they are always around and extremely helpful and speak perfect English. If I had one complaint it’s that for us low landers it’s even higher then old town Quito and can make altitude issues for some of us pretty tough. I would suggest they have coca leaf tea available 24/7 and maybe even a basket of coca leaves to chew on. They really help. Besides that it’s a sweet spot.

My wife, myself and two friends have been staying at Casa Gardenia for a week. Our original plans were interrupted by the Corona virus travel restrictions. The owner has gone out of his way to get us information about travel restrictions, to help us figure out travel plans, to inform us of where to go to get what we need, and to help us to stay for an extended time. He has given us access to the kitchen and made us feel very welcome and safe. We can't say enough good things about him and the hotel.

A small boutique hotel, with a renovated loft or glass condo feel to it. The lounge on the second and third floors entice you to get out of your room in the evening and look at the view with a glass of wine (which we did each night we stayed). There was also an outside rooftop terrace which had a great view but the weather didn't allow us to spend extensive time out there. The rooms are modern and clean.Service was great which included arranging some breakfast despite checking out before the official breakfast time. It has a discreet entrance so it is very easy to miss if you haven't been there before. I suggest that if arriving by taxi, have the address and the instructions on how to get there (our taxi driver could not find it). I gave comfort a ranking of 4 instead of a 5 because there is some noise from the street and noise from the hallway floors (which are very nice, rustic planks). You are only a couple of blocks from the plaza (Historical centre). I would definitely stay there again

Hidden Gem in Old Town Quito

asa Gardenia is a recently opened BNB in historic Quito that feels like a boutique hotel experience tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The location is superb and the rooms are clean and modern in design. The 2nd floor has a sitting area that overlooks Quito with stunning views. The top floor balcony also has stunning views and offers a great way to see the city while relaxing and taking in some fresh air.

Breakfast is delicious and offers many options for a variety of diets. The best asset of Casa Gardenia is the staff. Andres and Paola are so kind, friendly, and very helpful with recommendations. They scheduled transportation to and from the airport with driver Freddie, who was fantastic. The traffic in Quito is challenging to say the least, and Freddie is a pro at navigating.

We loved our experience so much that we cancelled our next hotel in Quito, reserved a room at Casa Gardenia for another stay prior to our departure from Ecuador.

Great location between the cathedral and Old Town plaza. Easy walking distance to most of the museums and places of interest in this part of Quito as long as you can handle the hills. Very satisfied with both the price and the quality of the hotel and would certainly stay again when I am in Quito.

We loved our stay at Hotel Casa Gardenia! The staff was very friendly and it was close to the Old Town District! The only thing that we did not like about the hotel is that our shade covering the door did not cover the whole window so we always had light coming in. The rest of the hotel was great though!

The hotel is within walking distance to the historic center, including the basilica. The views from the hotel are beautiful and the staff is very attentive and friendly. It's a smaller hotel with a lot of character and is well-maintained. They have a driver, Freddy, who is knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly...without him, we wouldn't have experienced all of the beauty of Quito and the surrounding areas.
