A boutique property on Plaza Santa Clara in Quito’s historic centre.

Set within a restored home where natural light, Ecuadorian artworks, and contemporary design create calm, refined interiors. Rooms feature well equipped kitchens with artisan ceramics, private laundry facilities, wood burning fireplaces, premium amenities, and high speed Wi-Fi, offering a blend of comfort and homelike convenience.

Guests can enjoy a panoramic rooftop terrace with views of El Panecillo, the Basilica, and the surrounding neighbourhood. The property sits within a culturally rich square that has been part of Quito’s daily life for over four centuries.
