We stayed there twice in June, before and after a trip to the Amazon basin. The staff was very helpful and having the restaurant in the hotel was convenient. However, in both of the rooms that we stayed, mattress replacement was long overdue. The first stay was in an upstairs suite that had a King bed in one room and... more

I stayed at Los Alpes in June, 2009. The owners and staff were as friendly as anyone could be. The rooms are comfortable, especially the bed with its heavy Ecuadorian woven blankets. The location is a quiet one, but close enough to walk to the New City and enjoy its offerings. The facility is absolutely charming, and you are personally... more

We stayed 4 nights at this very eclectically decorated private hotel - before and after a Galapagos cruise. A deposit wasn't required for our email booking even though it was made 6 months ahead and we live on the other side of the world! When we arrived, our room was ready, and the staff were very friendly and helpful .... more

A great base close to the tram line, places to eat, and an artisan market. Rooms are very spacious. The rooms in the back courtyard are the best and quietest. We really appreciated how accommodating they were in keeping our luggage for free. It was so convenient not to have to leave our bags for the Galapagos when we went... more

Stayed in Los Alpes on first visit to Quito. Very comfortable, excellent service, felt right at home. Staying at a different hotel on return visit after Amazon trip and regretting it! more

We stayed here before & after our trip to the Galapagos. It's a quaint little place a few blocks from the bigger hotels, Hilton, etc... The rooms were perfect for our needs - no air or heat, which the heat was a little bit of issue for me as I am always cold at night - but there were enough... more

I read lots of great reviews before booking a stay at Los Alpes. My family had come to visit me in Ecuador while I was working there, and Los Alpes seemed to be in a pleasant area, and it sounded like a clean and place with good ambiance. The neighborhood is indeed nice, but the hotel itself gave an overwhelming... more

This is short and sweet: reservation confirmed by Los Alpes on March 30 - cancelled the day before arrival May 29th by e-mail (we were in Peru!) saying they had "technical problems". Beware !!!! more

We used Los Alpes as a stopover for the Galapagos (there and back). We found we were entering an alternative reality once entering the doors and could have been up the mountains in France. This hotel has a unique feel and charm. The service and staff at the hotel were magnificent. When I arrived from Peru I had a tooth... more
