We arrived late at night, actually it was more like early morning. Rio Amazonas is one of the few hotels that will let you check in that late. Check in was swift and we got a broom with a magnificent view over the city and Cotopaxi. The room was clean, the beds comfortable and the bathroom brand new and beautiful. Breakfast is fabulous and the staff is very friendly. Not sure about the neighborhood yet, but it looks fine.
Nice hotel near Plaza Foch. Restaurant had a nice variety of Ecuadorian plates and seafood especially! Wife and I loved the huge king bed, city views, and hot shower. Only thing I would give 4 stars is the breakfast buffet but compared to other places it’s still quite yummy!
Amazing service! They allowed us to store our luggage for 4 days when we went to the Galapagos - made that trip so much easier! Great breakfast, menu service for other meals. Bar mixes great drinks. Stay was perfect!!
Our PM restaurant waiter and bartender was great. I think his name was Norbert. Rooms were cleaned, the food wasn’t great but not bad either. AM front desk staff weren’t too accommodating, however pm FD and night auditor were nice and friendly.
The hotel itself was fairly nice for the location with very comfortable beds, TV, refrigerators and bottles of water. It was a little dated but comfortable. Staff was helpful at check in and with a late checkout. Breakfast was nice and dinner restaurant decent but under staffed when we were there. The neighborhood is a little noisy on certain nights.

Breakfast buffet had different options which was good. When I asked for jam for the bread I was told it was finished, by the solo female waitress. I asked butter instead, but she said they don't have any. 2 minutes later she produced a small amount of both. Hotel was well decorated for Christmas season. 3 male staff I encountered were polite. 3 female staff all appeared to have lost the will to work. Bed was very comfortable. Shower flooded all over the bathroom floor. You could hear nearby nighttime disco music until the early hours of the morning. I was only there one night
The staff was wonderful - personal and attentive, but the room was tired and had no AC or fan. The light-blocking blinds were broken. I didn't feel 100% safe in the neighborhood. I chose this place for the affordable price but would spend more for a better place next time.

Bed really comfortable, restaurant under staffed and under stocked. No desserts available at dinner at all. Had to eat in the bar as they had a group of 150 booked into the restaurant for lunch the next day.
Bar tender was very friendly and attentive. Had to wait 10 minutes for receptionist to arrive so I could check out.
Great hotel in a good location for walking around. Emelio, & Sebastian on the front desk couldn’t have been more welcoming and helpful. They got us a driver called Javier who was a god send. He drove us on trips and twice to the airport. Last but not least the fabulous Fernando in the bar. A true friend. Made our stay very pleasurable!
We got robbed unfortunately on the street and they all went out of there way to help. Definitely will stay again on my return.
El personal es muy servicial y el desayuno el mejor que tuvimos en Quito, sobre todo con riquísima panadería (el desayuno es tipo buffet con gran número de opciones. Lo único que habría deseado es que tuvieran aire acondicionado o refrigeración en el cuarto ya que hubo una noche que hizo bastante calor. Por lo demás es excelente opción para hospedarse en Quito y definitivamente nos hospedaríamos de nuevo.
Great value! Lovely room with king size bed, nice linens and awesome view with large windows. Breakfast buffet is fine and dinners are great traditional dishes. I’ll be back.
