Hotel Boutique Portal De Cantuña

Outstanding location, kind staff, must be fit (no elevator), a former convent where you can hear water running in other rooms. Locations trumps its mi it flaws.

The hotel is in the Quito old town. The building used to be an old convent. The owner gave us a quick tour of the property. The breakfast was very good. There are a lot of restaurants in the neighbourhood. Overall a very good experience.

This 200-year-old convent turned hotel is beautiful and in the centre of the Centro Historico in Quito, great location for walking around that neighbourhood and checking out many of the key spots. The room was a little loud as there was a window into the main hotel space next to one of the beds, but it's a very small hotel so there wasn't too much activity to disturb us. Otherwise, the room was clean and comfortable but very basic.The staff were very helpful and let us store our bags for free the next day even after we had checked out, and arranged for a ride to the airport for us. The included breakfast was also lovely. There was also Wifi but it was slow and spotty (as I would expect in this type of hotel anyway).

Excellent location in the old town. The owner and her staff were just the best for their hospitality, attentiveness and recommendations.

Cozy, good ambiance. Helpful staff. Good location.

Such a wonderful hotel, and the staff is a lovely family! Dinner and breakfast were delicious. The location is perfect, right in the historic city. Wish we could have stayed longer!

The hotel in a colonial house in Quito's centro historico is interesting and couldn't be better located. The family and staff who run it were delightful and very kind and helpful. A drawback was that the restaurant where breakfast was served, was open to the outside and so chilly it was difficult to enjoy the good breakfast that was provided. The room we occupied, had no window to the outside and as a result was somewhat claustrophobic and was also very chilly (but this is not unusual for the area). Generally a good experience.

This guesthouse is a restored abbey, steps from Plaza de San Francisco. The common areas are spacious and luxurious--filled with beautiful antiques, stained glass, etc. The rooms are a bit spartan, but clean and comfortable. The innkeepers are friendly, helpful, and speak good English. A delicious hot breakfast (choice of eggs with pastries, fruit, coffee, and juice) is served each morning.

This was, without a doubt, one of the nicest places that I have ever stayed. The Hotel itself is amazing, the staff and food are amazing. The location is amazing. There is nothing more that one should be able to ask for in life than to get an opportunity to stay at a place like this at some point in life. A truly inspiring experience. Thank you so very much, Portal De Cantuna...

Lovely, authentic, full of traditional furniture and antiques, in old colonial building. The public areas are delightful and comfortable: it is like being in someone's home (which it is) rather than a hotel. Sonya and the rest of her staff were very accommodating and helpful, arranging for an early morning taxi-ride to the airport ($26) and laying out a 5am breakfast for me. Location is absolutely ideal and in the Centro Historico, within walking distance of most of the major sites.
