"A wonderful, small hotel with clean rooms and great views of Banos and the waterfall and hills beyond the town. A reasonably priced breakfast was good and served by attentive staff. All the personal were very helpful and friendly."

"Nice hotel , inside an antique building . Rooms are a little small , not much room for storage . Food is great . Maybe parking could be an issue , as it’s kinda far from the hotel , and difficult to find sports nearby when arrival"

We chose not to stay in Quito city as we needed to be back and forth to the airport. So this hotel offered a good midway point, and we were really glad we chose it. As well as a much shorter ride to and from the airport, the hotel is smart, tidy and comfortable, and has possibly some of the most helpful staff I've ever encountered.
We had an issue with one flight, and they did everything they could to help, including lending us a phone for several hours while we were on hold. Martin and Michelle...

A charming small hotel very well situated in the historic centre district just a short walk from the plaza grande. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms well equipped and kept spotlessly clean . The hosts were as charming as they were helpful and made our stay a most enjoyable one.

The hotel was very good. They brought a kettle to our room. The outdoor pool was heated and the sauna and steam room worked. The airport transfer was reliable. Families with children bought day passes which is good. Will stay again.

Lovely hotel, very boutique and beautiful, walking distance from the town centre (5 minutes) and easily accessible - no lift for access to the first floor but plenty of ground floor rooms if necessary for any disability requirements. Restaurant is on the ground floor

Excellent decor and fittings. Very comfortable rooms which were spacious and modern. Staff were super helpful in finding us a nearby gym to use when the hotels gym was out of order.

The loveliest one night stay at Friends Hotel. Checked me in as soon as I arrived even though it was many hours before check in time (greatly appreciated as I was so tired!) Clean, comfy room with a balcony giving views up the mountain. Delicious breakfast with great views from the rooftop. Couldn't be more accomodating. Wish I had stayed longer, will definitely be back!

Really good room with easy access to all Marriott facilities and restaurants. OK location for Quito centre but need a taxi or bus to get to colonial centre.

Spent one night here and glad I did. Not too far from the old town and not a crowded area. The staff were friendly this beats your typical hotel experience the decor was very unique.

I can honestly say that all of the staff in this hotel are the most friendly I have experienced in any hotel - they became more like friends than staff by the end of my stay. They were willing to do whatever they could to help - cooking great meals, finding English football to watch on the TV, cleaning and drying my clothes after I came back from field work in the jungle covered in mud, and just generally being very chatty and friendly. I will certainly be returning here next time I'm in Quito....

Loved the beautiful room with kitchen. The bed was so comfortable and the food fantastic. Awesome gym, with paddle courts, tennis and pickle ball. Fantastic to watch the Polo too. Loved the 3 Swimming pools.
