The staff is very nice and the rooms are very clean. The elevator needs caution though as it closes too quickly and it may crush you or your loved ones.

Thank you for your comments, they are important for us.
My room, upgraded to a suite, was clean and comfortable, although quite stuffy at night due to the lack of A/C. The staff was courteous and professional. The food service (dining room and room service) as very good. The Akros does not compare to the big chains in terms of amenities, but in terms of service and comfort it is outstanding, and definitelyi more affordabe.

There was no air conditioning in the rooms which forced you to open the two, very small, windows to attempt to get air. EVERY NIGHT after midnight or so and just about every thirty minutes an incredibly loud alarm would go off. Sometimes for thirty seconds sometimes for fifteen minutes. I’ll never stay there again
Muchas gracias por sus comentarios, es un para nosotros un placer atenderle.

Lob in for a swell time
Love the lobby - elegant decor and great swing music. Also the only place you can get secure wifi in the building (guests' rooms have only open /not secure wifi).
It is next to a main road, so bring your earplugs.

Good location and value for money
This is an older hotel that is in need of an upgrade, however, its well located and is still comfortable. Think 1980's decor and youre on the money.
Is in a good part of town, next to a 24hr pharmacy, 10min walk to a large mall.
Internet was average.
Stayed for 4 nights over a three week period. Staff were super helpful in this standard business hotel located in a main Quito avenue convenient to the Ecovia bus line (if you like intimate travel that is cheap). Rooms were clean with ok bathrooms and nice showers. 1pm check out was super convenient - with a 2pm check in. Not a tourist hotel so staff only speak Spanish - which was just what I wanted. Very convenient for the Botanic Gardens and the must see Guayasamin museum. Definitely would stay again.
I got way over charged on the laundry service. Even though they discounted the original price of $80 to $58, the total was probably twice as much as the actual value of my clothing (a couple tee shirts and underwear). The bag in the room did not have the slip attached to it that included the prices so I was more or less tricked into this ridiculous fee. The people at the front desk also directed me to take a taxi to a park instead of the bus (which was said to be inconvenient), which ended up costing me $50. I took the bus on the way home which was far more convenient, cost less than $1, and did not involve a half
Fast and friendly check in, my room was spacious and clean. The Hotel floor and desk staff were very helpful with information and security
I will stay again next time in Quito
Thank you

Has what you need for a short stay
The hotel was fine for my short stay there. The rooms are simple and quite well kept. I wish there was a way for me to control the air conditioning/heating directly. If you need a convenient location to stay at an affordable price, this hotel will do the trick!
The Hotel Akros met our needs nicely. I'd stay again.

It is an old hotel, rooms are also old. The room does not have a minibar. I was unable to find an air conditioner or a setting to control room temperature.
Everything was quite well done. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The food was very good as well.

Quito hotel
We stayed only one night and the room was adequate. I did not like the fact that the hotel would not give me a receipt, apparently due to online booking.
Overall a good comfortable stay. Close to Carolina Park for running. Staff helped with taxis and most of the time there was an ability to speak English We were upgraded to a suite and that was nice
Comfortable hotel, good food in restaurant, close to all amenities, and is in middle of the business center of Quito, so perfect for business travel. Room was a bit noisy at night due to the hotel being on a main avenue, but was not unbearably loud. Rooms are large, so comfortable for extended stays. Kitchenette with mini fridge and microwave comes in handy.
I am not sure I have ever stayed in a hotel with a friendlier, more helpful, and more responsive staff. The restaurant was great. The rooms were comfortable but not fancy. There is a convenient 24 hour Pharmacy right next to it. Plenty of shopping and food nearby as well. I recommend this hotel!
Clean Rooms. Quiet at night. I always stay at this hotel because of its central location, excellent customer service and decent food. Definitely recommend it for anyone staying for business.
Todo muy bien, la comida del restaurante es muy buena

Buenas tardes, lamentamos no haber cumplido con sus expectativas, contamos con servicio de cajas fuertes en la recepción.
Agradecemos mucho sus comentarios, siempre son considerados para mejorar el servicio.
Tengo de viajar a Quito por trabajo, siempre le he hospedado en el Akros por su buen servicio, comodidad y limpieza, y sin pensarlo dos veces me seguiré haciendo.
