This is a hotel with great character and an amazing staff. Every member of the hotel staff is very friendly, welcoming and helpful. You will not find a better hotel in Quito
This hotel is spectacular. One of the hotel stays I have had. The staff is amazing and the service is excellent. If you like boutique hotels with lots of charm and character this is the place to stay.
This hotel is a gem. Beautifully appointed throughout and the service is great. Breakfast is wonderful. Nicole made us feel at home and was always ready with help or advice. I we ever came back to Quito, we wouldn’t stay anywhere else.
Safe, solid mid tier hotel option in good location
Hotel was great for the price, good breakfast, water bottle fill up station. Staff was super helpful and available at all hours. Location was close to metro station so could easily get to historic city center. the minor inconveniences were that the bathroom has no fan and in February the humidity made the bathroom perpetually wet.
This was our favorite hotel during our Ecuador trip. It’s safe and the hotel staff are super helpful (restaurant suggestions, setting up taxis, etc). Breakfast was super good too! The hotel has a lot of character. There is a gate around the property and you have to buzz in and out to have staff open the gate so we felt super safe! Would highly recommend!
The staff at Vieja Cuba are so friendly and helpful. This includes Alejandro and Alyssia and the cleaning. You are close to many sites. There is an excellent supermarket nearby and several restaurants and cafes.
Enjoyed our stay at vieja cuba which has an interesting style and staff are very friendly. Room allocated was not as large as indicated in photo by Hotels.com. Breakfast good but not extensive and plenty of restaurants and a supermarket nearby
Stayed 2 nights. Very clean. We felt safe at the hotel. Dining options short walk nearby. Great breakfast-eggs, cereal, fruit. The staff was very attentive to our needs. We had an early check out and they provided us with a light breakfast to take with us.

We stayed in 2 different rooms
One was too small for 2 people with luggage.
Both were accessed via a locked gate so always had to ask reception to open it for us.
Pretty gardens
One of the staff was exceptionally helpful booking taxis etc
Stayed 3 nights. Property was in a quiet area and about 10-15 minute Uber ride (about $3) from historic area and the same from the gondola to ruku pichincha hike. Hotel was very cute with South American decor and charm. Breakfast was amazing with cereal, granola, yogurt, fresh fruits, cooked to order eggs, toast and ham, fresh juice and coffee/ tea. Staff was great, especially Nicole who was so helpful and accommodating. Room was just a little on the small side but doable. Turn hot water in shower on full blast and let it run for about 5 min then water will be hot.
This is a lovely house with many traditional features still. No stairs to get to the upstairs room but the girl on reception very kindly helped me with my heavy case up the stairs. I didn’t get her name but she was so so helpful and friendly during our stay - even helping us to arrange a food delivery when all the nearby restaurants were closed one evening on the public holiday.
The room was clean, quiet and what we needed. The local area felt safe and we were happy to walk around nearby.
Staff was very nice and helpful; hotel was secure (front gate locked as well as parking area); good and plentiful breakfast; very cute and quaint hotel charm; no heat in rooms in September so staff brought space heater upon request. We had a car, which we parked on site, location may be hard without a car as it didn’t appear to be an easy walkable location. Overall a very nice and economical stay. Would recommend and also stay again
