El señor que nos atendió fue súper amable con nosotros, definitivamente volveríamos a alojarnos. Nada, pero si mejoraran el desayuno seria asombroso. Pienso que si le integran fruta de temporada seria fantástico.

- Kim (8/5): Would definitely stay again if I find myself back in Quito! Great location, lovely boutique inn! - The staff was amazing! Cris, one of the owners, was incredibly helpful. As a single female traveler, I wasn’t completely comfortable going out after dark to find dinner. Cris ensured I was able to have dinner in the hotel, despite it being after their normal meal hours and being the only guest to eat in. They served a delicious meal at very good value. Thanks, Cris and team! Rooms can be cold in the evening. Heaters don’t always work well, but an extra blanket made it more comfortable.

- Renate (10/5): Wie zu Hause - Ein sehr familiär geführtes kleines Hotel
- Michel Joseph (9/5): Accueil remarquable de la part de Daniel. Endroit à recommander. - Personnel dévoué. Adrien et Daniel se sont souciés de m'attribuer une chambre tranquille. Bel accueil de leur part. Chambre avec meubles en bois massifs, penderie, fenêtres. Très propre. Quartier à distance du centre historique - près d'une heure de marche. A l'avantage d'être dans un quartier tranquille et sécurisé (code pour entrer, police dans les rues le soir). Terrasse pour déjeuner. Restaurants et dépanneur à proximité. À recommander. J'ai aimé cet hôtel - un milieu de vie. Salon au premier étage. Daniel y a contribué pour beaucoup. Très bon rapport qualité-prix. Nettoyage de la chambre au besoin. WI-FI fonctionne très bien. Merci! Pas de séchoir ni frigo dans la chambre. Matelas perdant de sa fermeté au fur des jours. Espace entre la porte et le cadre de la porte de ma chambre laissant entrer la lumière le soir. Déjeuner basique : se limitant à des oeufs, pain, un breuvage et du lait, à ma demande. Aussi, à un fruit, à ma demande. Merci à la cuisinière!
- Ivan (10/5): Excelente calidad precio - La tención es excelente Podrían mejorar un poco en la oferta de comida
- Consuelo (10/5): Cómodo, amables, personal servicial , volvería. - Muy cordiales, se nota preocupación! No tenía televisión en la habitación , aunque personalmente no la necesité pero se indicaba que tenía.
- Ann (9/5): Home away from home - We had a lovely stay at Rabida Hotel - spent 4 nights . Home away from home . Conveniently located and very clean . Would highly recommend Nothing except maybe a little variety with breakfast would be good
- Anthony (9/5): Nice boutique hotel - Cute boutique hotel. Simple but adequate breakfast. Lovely owner and staff. Felt very homely. The lounge and outdoor area were nice to relax in. Room a little on the small side for opening 2 large suitcases.
- JHON JAIRO (8/5): Cómoda - Fue una estancia agradable Faltaba una TV
- Alexander Sobolev (9/5): -
- Dianne (10/5): - The decor was great. It was a very comfortable stay. All the staff looked after us very well. Cristian went out of his way to help us with an airline issue and to organise transport
- Mpolanco (10/5): Excelente estancia accesible a turismo o negocios. - Ambiente óptimo, un espacio con la calidez de sus anfitriones en un petit hotel muy bien conservado.
Han habilitado un restaurant que esperamos probar en nuestra próxima estancia. Relación servicio precio óptimo.
- Molina (9/5): -
- Loukas Antiochos (10/5): One night at Quito - Everything Breakfast was a bit poor on variety...but ok
- Manach (9/5): Séjour agréable - Lors de notre arrivée nous avons été très bien accueillies par Cristian qui nous a laissé le choix de la chambre selon les disponibilités. La chambre était propre, le lit très confortable et grand, un super balcon ensoleillé et une salle de bain pratique. Le petit déjeuner était copieux et dans un lieu calme et agréable. Nous avons trouvé le repas un peu cher pour des frites et du chorizo mais cordial d’avoir proposé ce repas après notre arrivée tardive. De plus, Cristian a oublié de nous rendre la monnaie à deux reprises.
- Darlene (10/5): - La Rabida Hotel boutique was as advertised. Tranquil, beautiful decor, comfortable room, helpful and gracious host. The only thing I would say is that I would have liked the croissants warmed up for breakfast. 🙂
- Paul (10/5): -
- Marfori (10/5): - The hotel is very welcoming. It's very quaint. It feels like being a guest in someone's home. We were very comfortable.

- Francisco Javier (10/5): Estancia acogedora - Es una casa antigua muy bien conservada el señor Daniel muy servicial y simpático muy comunicativo , la pasé muy bien y si volvería. Está en una zona segura. “El desayuno es bastante básico, no hay variedad(fresco, huevos y pan con mantequilla y mermelada). Está bien para salir a conocer y en el camino consumir algo más, pero sería recomendable que ofrecieran más variedad.”
- Luis Francisco (10/5): Excelente - La atención prestada es muy buena la gente es muy amable El aromatizante del cuarto está un poco fuerte
- Monica (8/5): -
- Pqueña Langosta PaoLuisa (10/5): Linda experiencia en un hotel con calidez de hogar. - La decoración y el ambiente de hogar, la amabilidad, calidez de las personas que atienden el hotel sobre todo su anfitrióna de 4 patitas 🐾🐾😊
- Rene (8/5): Nice and convenient, but chilly. - The location was great and the staff helpful. The room was pretty. The bed was hard and I was cold the whole time. The heater didn't put out enough heat to take the chill out of the room.
- Gisella (10/5): Exceptional - Mi hotel preferido para ir a Quito N/a
- Joan (8/5): Cristian and Daniel were very accommodating and pleasant to talk and help with suggestions. Bed was vey comfortable, had - Very comfortable, staff was helpful and accommodating Perhaps a glass in the room to have a beverage and maybe coffee in suite for early risers. Otherwise I loved the place and would go back again.
- Gómez (8/5): Very good -
- Eileen (9/5): Superb - Decor is beautiful. Lovely eating areas inside and out. A bagged breakfast was ready for us when we departed at 630 am. Great hot showers.
- Jane (9/5): Superb -
- Itzel (10/5): Amazing Place to stay - The experience I had was just amazing! The staff was very attentive, I felt I was staying with family with all the attention and care they offered me, it felt as home. Everything was just perfect
- Clavel (10/5): I couldn’t be more thankful for Cristian’s support during my stay. I had a difficult time due to unplanned circumstances - Home away from home feeling I loved this property
- Mark (9/5): Superb -
- Andrew (10/5): A great hotel - a real Gem in Quito - This is a great hotel - a real Gem. Small, and has plenty of character. The staff were amazing and we enjoyed chatting. The breakfast was great. The Wifi was reliable. Well located in Quito to get to many other spots - I would highly recommend a visit to Quito Vivarium and The Botanical gardens.
- Assel (10/5): can't recommend more. Xavier, Cristian, Meguel are wonderful people - the personnel was just lovely- super friendly, helpful, kind, warmhearted and caring.
the atmosphere in house was like from a great book or a movie - beautiful music on the background in a breakfast room, nice collection of books and comfy chairs in library, elegant fireplace and sofas in a public room, cozy and spacious inner garden with beautiful blooming trees.
it was the best hotel experience ever. and the most welcoming vibes in a new country.
will definitely be back again. loved everything and decided to stay for an extra day just to enjoy the house and hospitality.
- John (10/5): Comfort at a value - Very friendly and helpful staff
- Clare (9/5): Superb -
- Gerardo (6/5): I had heard great things, but I think they’ve gone down. - The staff was friendly and very helpful. The apparent owner who sometimes managed things was not. I felt like an unwanted house guest when he was around. My room smelled like sewer the whole time due to a drain in the bathroom. There were 2 large dogs lunging in the common areas the whole time (on furniture). Everything was covered in dog hair and one day the stairs had dog poop.
- Kevin (10/5): Exceptional - Loved the resident dog.
- Vikram (10/5): Felt like home! - La Rabida is an absolutely charming hotel. The owners - Christian, Xavier and another gentleman are very casual. From the time I walked in, I felt like I was walking into a home. Very easy going. Great room (spacious, adequate and comfy), strong wifi (a must for us digital nomads) and overall nice home like enviroment, including the 2 dogs Belle and Rody. I wouldn't say "don't like" as I didn't have any issues....but I can see people who are used to "conventional hotels" with 24x7 reception a bit surprised when there isn't someone all the time at the desk. That said, they provide their numbers and whatsapp contact, so it's easy to get hold of them.
- Hunter (9/5): Superb - The breakfast was very good and made to order. The owners checked with us the night before to ensure we were happy with what they planned to make and said they would have it ready for whatever time was convenient for us. A+ service. The hotel was very quiet and safe. However, it would have been nice if the room had a stronger lock than just simply the handle lock. I never felt unsafe but I would have felt even safer if I had the ability to deadbolt the room while I slept.
- James (10/5): Excellent in every way :) - Probably my favourite place to stay in Quito, wonderful clean rooms, very friendly staff, and a great location close to many shops and restaurants. The cute dog too, of course. I will be staying here again for sure :)
- Paolo (8/5): Very good - Very nice guest After Covid, the neighbourhood has become quite shallow
- Katharina (10/5): very good and caring place close to Mariscal - very helpful and friendly staff, very good breakfast in a quiet beautiful courtyard and such a lovely dog! We could leave our luggage while going to Banos for 2 nights. nothing
- Marcelo (9/5): I strongly recommend this place in Quito! - Extremely kind staff makes you feel like home with friends! They manage your breakfast as you wish, with good options of juices, bread, hot drinks etc. Very good shower after long days strolling around Quito and natural parks. It was a perfect stay! Hard to say... hum... maybe a TV in the room?
- Cédric (10/5): Exceptional - Nicely styled and very clean and comfortable place to stay. The dogs were really cute and happy. Breakfast was nice. Most important, the staff was extremely helpful during our stay, helping us figure things out in the days after we first arrived in Ecuador , and even finding us a wonderful doctor when we got sick. Can wholeheartedly recommend this place!
- David (10/5): Exceptional - Andrea was very helpful with arranging transportation around Quito and to the airport. The staff was gracious and helpful. The room was very clean. Highly recommend.
- Andrea (10/5): Ok - Great value for position. Good breakfast and good matress.
Perfect. Quite Place.
- Dominik (10/5): Perfect accommodation in the Mariscal neighborhood, will come back on all our future trips to Quito - Very cozy atmosphere, beautiful and nicely renovated rooms and common areas. Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff! Good coffee and breakfast
- Jennifer (10/5): highly recommend! - the location was excellent. very nice staff and felt like staying at a house then a hotel.
- Catherine (10/5): Relaxing stay at Hotel de La Rabida - Very friendly and welcoming staff. good location, close to many restaurants. Great breakfasts. Appreciated the good advice and recommendations for visiting Quito.
- Ross (10/5): I would strongly recommend this hotel. - My mother and I stayed at Hotel de la Rabida in Quito twice, for one night each time, at the start and the end of our trip to Ecuador. We had various travel delays but the hotel organised pick up from the airport for us so neither of the delays was a problem. We didn't spend a huge amount of time at the hotel because, with our delays, we arrived late in the evening both times, but I can say that all the staff are very helpful, attentive, and friendly, the breakfast is nice, the rooms are comfortable, and the log fire in the reception is lovely on a cold night.
- Trevisan (8/5): Very good -
- Adrien (10/5): Everything was perfect - Amazing staff, lovely place, excellent breakfast, everything was perfect, we will come back for sure !
- Ricardo (5/5): Passable -
- Nelsir (10/5): Exceptional -
- Susan (9/5): Very homely - This is more like staying in someone's home than a hotel. Very kind helpful staff, speak really good English which was very helpful when we first arrived and getting our bearings.
The hotel is very close to a corner shop where we could buy water.Also near a large supermarket. El Maple was an amazing vegetarian and vegan restaurant within walking distance
Pet friendly if you wish to bring your dogs too. Roddy was a bit of a character.
- Susan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kathleen (6/5): Nice place. - the staff, location, breakfast, hot shower The bed was not comfortable. We had booked a double bed. It was two single beds together. My side was fine, my husbands side was not.
- Runar (10/5): Excellent choice in Quito - The manager went above and beyond to help us organize our tours and sightseeing. On the strength of this alone, the hotel deserves a 10. Additionally, the hotel was nice, comfortable, and excellent value. The location is within easy walking distance of many restaurants and shops, albeit the street itself is quiet. .
- Jasper (9/5): Superb -
- Brendan (10/5): Charming hotel with great staff and tasty breakfast - They were very flexible with our booking which we really appreciated. The room was very clean, comfortable and charming. There were some nice little extras and the staff and owners were very friendly and helpful. Also breakfast was great!
- Mariia (10/5): Exceptional - Loved the place!
Everyone was so helpful and nice 😊
They even brought me breakfast at 6 am 😍
Very safe location, highly recommend!
