Not their fault, but the nightclub nearby does play loud music until late night( on Saturday night).

Location excellent for walking the city. Fun local restaurants and bars nearby- non touristy. Breakfast was simple but good. Staff was excellent. Would visit again definitely.

The breakfast is beautifully served. Every detail of the interier is a masterpiece.

Perfect location near Las Peñas and a wonderfully quirky historic building. The staff were wonderful and very helpful during our short stay.

It didn't bother us but should be noted for less able persons: the reception is on top of two very high flights of stairs (the outside one very steep). What bothered us was the very loud party that apparently takes place every Friday and Saturday until past midnight, so on these days, make sure to ask for a quiet back room. The birds on top of the trees on the plaza are beautiful but smelly!

The mansion is beautiful and the bedrooms are historic with high ceilings and beautiful decorations. The common area living room is also beautiful, and feels very homely. The location is unbeatable on top of the Las Peñas hill, 5 minutes from dozens of restaurants and 7 minutes from the malecon and movie theater. Great rooftop with beautiful views. The breakfast is decent (fruits, eggs, cereals, yogurt) - I would change the very processed white bread though to match with the rest. The staff was friendly and kindly kept our luggage between two trips. If you take Uber, make sure to revise the itinerary to arrive by the south, otherwise, it will leave you 200-300 m away.

It was just a beautiful Hotel. Restored to the old Charme. There were black outs in Ecuador during my stay but the hotel had no problems and had internet and electricity 24 hours. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

A lot of stairs, not recommended if you have mobility concerns.

It is in a safe area with several restaurants in walkable distance.

Very friendly staff, comfortable and clean hotel, excellent breakfast, wonderful and very safe location. We walked everywhere! Beautiful neighborhood with wonderful views! Definitely highly recommended!

Constant light in the room from an interior window and some noise downstairs from dinner area. This was not a problem for us but it’s worth mentioning.

Staff was very helpful and kind. Breakfast was nice as well and a taxi was booked by the hotel to take us back to the airport.

Stairs! Including some that felt precarious. The amount of decoration was overwhelming at first but everything was clean and the ensuite was modern if oddly designed.

Great location - las Preñas and Malecón were safe and interesting for tourists. Easy to go out for meals and coffee. Amazing staff who gave personalised and very helpful service- including organising tours. Room was comfortable, if unusual. Air conditioning was good too - necessary in the heat. Courtyard and terrace with a great view!

The breakfast was great with plenty of good tasting food and delicious juice with coffee or tea. The room had a great view of the river and it had a very comfortable bed. The waiting room and the room were breakfast was served was eloquently decorated.

Great location in the safe Las Penas neighbourhood. The hotel is amazing inside with chandeliers and Victorian era decor. The ceilings are all hand painted with designs and artwork. The staff are so friendly and helpful.

Nothing (If stairs are an issue, this may not be the place for you)

Perfect location! Incredible decor in a century building. Most amazing and helpful staff. Second floor terrace looks out over treetops filled with herons, egrets and iguanas!

Minor point- the downstairs area is so old and pristine, it kind of feels like you can’t really sit there and relax. The staff were so eager to serve breakfast all at once that the eggs went cold as I was still getting through the fruit. Maybe just wait and then ask people what they would like, to avoid this in future!

The bed was so comfortable! Lovely old hotel on the river, it felt like I was in a living museum. Nice rooftop terrace as well and very helpful staff. It’s in one of the few nice areas of the city so felt a lot safer than most places.

Loved it all!

We loved the authentic Victorian style, the location and the staff were amazing!
