Property information

“La Casa del Centro” is a property located in the colonial center of Quito and constitutes a heritage house that has rooms with private bathrooms, suites and fully furnished apartments. While its owners inhabited the property, this site witnessed pleasant moments that now constitute the memories of the families that sheltered those who were people of great confidence, respect and friendship with the family; always housing good people.
