0 1 2 3

Well located colonial hotel set around a central courtyard, offering accommodation that is simple and traditional without being austere.

With a location befitting its colonial ambience, Patio Andaluz is just two blocks from the Plaza de la Independencia, near Quito’s historical centre.

Guestrooms surround an open gallery of arched balconies, a central courtyard and a patio restaurant. Décor and furnishings are simple and traditional without being austere. There is a bar, library, small handicraft shop and sitting room.
