היה נקי נעים ונוח והמארחים עשו מאמץ שיהיה לי נעים. אין אנשים (אורחים) אז היה לי פחות נעים בתור מטיילת סולו.
המארחים לא ידעו אנגלית

- kyungnam (10/5): - 방은 물론 모든 곳이 청결하고 직원분들도 모두 친절합니다.
정원도 훌륭하고, 주방도 사용하기 편리해요. 카페도 같이 있어서 조식도 이용할 수 있고 좋아요.
사장님께서도 무엇이든 물어보면 친절하게 알려주신답니다.
옥상 정원에서의 신선한 아침을 맞이하는 경험은 정말 특별합니다.
위치도 구시가까지 우버로 1.5달러 정도로 이동할 수 있어요.
키토에 다시 간다면 꼭 여기로 갈거예요. 없어요.
- Adam (10/5): amazing stay at an amazing location - excellent property with excellent host. zero
- Tiffany (10/5): Excellent stay and delightful spaces - This place is a dreamy oasis in the city! The rooms and hang out spaces are set back from the road - it was super quiet. VERY clean. Everything worked well. Wifi was great. All staff very nice. Location convenient. A great place to plop and relax if you have been traveling a while or do any work online. They do laundry in house. Only good things to say. Thank you for such a great stay!
- ESPAÑA TENORIO (10/5): Excelente - Todo, la habitación muy cómoda la cafetería muy agradable, excelente atención!!!
- Yuki (10/5): Lovely place in Quito - - The private room was clean, comfortable, and very reasonably priced. The terrace is lovely, and the staff were nice and welcoming.
- Bidet Toilet!! Never expect to have this in South America
- Laundry service was convenient and affordable at $5 for wash and dry. I dropped my clothes off at the reception around 8pm and picked them up the next morning at 7am.
- Getting an Uber was also easy from this location. - One small downside was that I sent a message in advance to ask about laundry but didn’t receive a response.
- Also, the café inside the hostel opens at 8am, so I couldn’t grab a coffee to go as I had to leave earlier.
- Judith (10/5): Lugar acogedor y simulador de estar entre la naturaleza, bello lugar - Buena atención del personal Pues no hay comentario, todo excelente

- Philip (10/5): - The rooms were very clean. The staff was exceptionally patient with our broken spanish. Coffee in the morning sun up on the garden terrace. Leaving.
- cesar (9/5): - La tranquilidad de hospedaje No tener televisión en la habitación
- Vásquez (10/5): - Excelente las habitaciones muy lindas y limpias, muy buen sector.
- Lucinda M (7/5): - Open spaces, friendly staff. Luke warm shower,
- Chrisrtw (9/5): Nice place but away from the tourist area - Large, clean, modern room. Large bed. Nice bathroom. Lots of common space. Good WiFi. The location is OK. There's nothing in the local area but it's a 15 minute walk to the tourist area. There's also a metro stop right outside. There was a water fountain right outside my room so I heard running water all the time. I just unplugged it at night :-). I plugged it back in in the morning.
- Pablo Antonio (8/5): Buen lugar - El lugar estaba bastante limpio y me atendieron cordialmente, tiene un ambiente acogedor y agradable. Lo recomiendo
- Marco (10/5): Perfect stay from start to finish!! - Very friendly owner and staff. Could arrange an airport pickup and and late night check in, easy to extend my stay for a day. The terrace is beautiful and the rooms cozy. Also offers breakfast and very tasty coffee.
- Johnathan (9/5): Superb - This is a beautiful hostel, with a beautiful roof terrace and the staff are very friendly
- David (10/5): - Great place!
- Charlotte (9/5): We love Quito Terrace! - Amazing peaceful hostel! Love the terrace garden 🪴 it’s beautiful! The staff are lovely, the $3.50 breakfast is amazing value! We used the laundry service twice and it’s brilliant, and they let us store our luggage while we went to the Amazon for a few days! We have already booked to come back! 😊 We loved mostly everything, but there were no oven gloves or tea towel in the kitchen one night so struggled with the hot pan, but it was fine we found a spoon! ☺️
A shower mat outside the shower would be great, to stop the floor getting so wet.
- Kate (10/5): The best place I stayed in Quito! - The property is beautiful. Lots of plants through out the whole area. There’s a shared kitchen, work area, dinning area and even a room for arts and crafts! The is quiet at night so it’s a good place to rest! Nothing
- Artur (8/5): Very good -
- Daniela (9/5): Wonderful green oasis in the bustling city - Such a beautiful roof terrace, like an oasis of peace and tranquility! The room was very comfortable as well, and we got a great night’s sleep. Perfect for those who like a quiet atmosphere.
Great location within the city, a short uber ride from all the major sights and attractions. Nothing
- Yoonseok (9/5): Like a garden - Fantastic facilities like a botanical garden It's really hard to communicate with staff because they can't speak english at all. Even they can't understand the word 'towel'.
- Aisling (8/5): Nice comfortable stay - Hot showers and comfortable bed. Room was spacious. We only stayed for one night but it suited us fine. Nothing
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 키토에 왔다면 키토테라스에서 숙박하시길 추천합니다!
내 집같은 편안함이 있고 정원이 아름다운 곳이며 시내를 내려다볼수 있는 테라스가 있어서 아주 좋은 곳입니다.
시내를 다니기도 편한 곳이고 주변에 숨겨진 맛집도 많습니다.
주방도 완비되어 있습니다!
- Minhee (10/5): Exceptional - I had an incredible experience at Quito Terrace! The location is perfect, very close to the historic center and the artisanal market, only ten minutes away. The staff is very friendly and helpful which made my stay here feel like home! The rooms were incredibly clean and the beautiful terrace was a great place to unwind after a long day of exploring the city. Amazing value for the price, and I will definitely stay here again!!
- Beatriz (10/5): Premium quality in a Hostel like a hotel - I absolutely loved everything about this place. It's a quiet spot where you can rest well. Superbly located near the metro station and the bus that takes you directly to the middle of the world. Also, it's very close to the city center, about 20 or 30 minutes away, depending on the traffic. El Panecillo is relatively close too. An incredible place to stay in Hostel Quito!
Previously, I stayed at Hostel Secret Garden but decided to move because many people, including non-guests, would enter the restaurant and bar late at night, making a lot of noise with loud music. This made it feel unsafe.
Hostel Quito is incredible in especially Edison and doesn't have these issues. It's super safe with security cameras, and the kitchen is spacious and professional, ideal for travelers. The $3 breakfast is one of the best—delicious and clean.
The staff is very accommodating, providing shampoo, soap, and towels. The bed was super clean and comfortable, and the bathroom was spacious and spotless, with beautiful wooden floors. The hostel has a lovely garden. If you need to work during your stay, you'll love it here. Sure, I'll incorporate these recommendations into the review:
---
I do have a couple of recommendations. The pillows could be more comfortable, similar to the beds. I found them too hard and preferred to sleep without them. Another suggestion is to place a mat in the bathroom outside the shower to prevent slipping.
- Peter (9/5): Superb -
- Yukyung (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sonja (10/5): amazing hostal for a really good price! - It was amazing! We stayed there for 3 nights.
The man at the reception was really nice. The don‘t offer Tours but he knows some agencies so gave us a number from a really good agency with which we did two day-tours.
The laundry service is also good and kind of cheap.
The Hostal is next to a big park and at night it‘s quiet. Also the historic center is in a walkable distance.
I read that some of the reviews say it‘s a sketchy neighborhood - during the night it seems a little bit sketchy but same sketchy as everywhere else - bc of the current situation you should take a Uber anyway at night.
So I can totally recommend this hostal! It‘s a good price and comfy.
The only thing is that they didn‘t change our towels once but I am sure they would if we asked directly.
- Lars (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anna (10/5): Exceptional - The building and terrace are beautiful!
- Nc (10/5): A real gem in the center of Quito! - This hotel is a real gem! Comfortable, affordable accommodation conveniently located opposite El Ejido Park and within walking distance of the Historic Centre. The room and ensuite bathroom were spacious, clean and well appointed. The Staff were super friendly and helpful. Eddie, at reception, is worth his weight in gold! His English is very good and he went out of his way to be helpful in any way he could. If we ever return to Quito I would definitely book here again! Little not to like about this hotel although the bed was quite firm (I found it ok but my wife found it very hard). She also found the stairs a challenge with her luggage, although I quite enjoyed the exercise! :)
- Michael (9/5): Perfect - Perfect facility . Good location Nothing
- Yuan (10/5): Highly recommend - the entire decoration is very beautiful. bathroom is big with hot water. Each bed has a cabin with lamp and socket. kitchen supply is ok. Close to metro station and trolebús station. Shops just outside the door. Surrounding is safe. Staff is very helpful. kitchen should supply some gloves and more rags as it will be too hot to hold the cover when cooked. This is necessary! it is a bit hard to find them as the number of the building invisible and the name is under a cover, suggest put the number as mentioned in the platform clearly outside the door or on the wall outside!
- Oliver (9/5): Superb - The staff is excellent and the property is absolutely amazing. My neighbor was loud as heck. She kept me up most of the night.
- Sweta (8/5): Very good -
- Yukyung (10/5): Exceptional -
- Manisha (10/5): Everything Wonderful - Everything Wonderful - water available and very cheap and good breakfast Little bit far away
- Benjamin (9/5): Superb -
- Dru88 (8/5): Very good -
- Heesu (10/5): gooooooood - cozy, clean, kind staff
- Sonya (9/5): great stay in downtown Quito, close to el Ejido park and the Old town, great staff, comfy room, supe - the roof garden was incredible, the room (the higher priced one with garden view) was quiet, nice table with chairs for breakfast surrounded by flowers. close to the shared kitchen. Great cafe on site, very nice staff , especially the nightwatch!
early check in allowed us to explore the city already in the morning! the shower needs a lot of patience to adjust the water temperature,
all the rest was great!
- Natasha (7/5): Quick stay to end Ecuador visit - Like that there are no bunks all standard beds. Provide locker hanger and hook. Shower was always hot and powerful. Towel looked slightly dirty, no shampoo or shower gel in bathroom. No shelf in shower.
- Buyu (10/5): Amazing view and stay - The terrace of the hostel really lives up to its name. I have never seen any hostels are this beautifully decorated with natural plants and massive sitting and common space areas. The terrace also has fantastic view of one of the city parks, and great for people watching and observing local livelihood.
Kitchen is also very well equipped with an industry grade gas stove (fantastic for asian stir fries!) and various condiments. Portable water tank is also provided free of charge.
Location is just about 5 minutes off the nearest Metro exit and 10 minutes to the biggest fresh market - Santa Clara. All the bars and restaurants in / around La Mariscal are also within walking distance.
Beds are also very premium with no upper bunks, big bathroom with piping hot shower and high water pressure. Towels and soups are provided free of charge. Onsite laundry room (extra fee)
Highly recommend for guests aren't into young backpacker scene (The secret gardens?) but yet still seeking for convenience and affordability. Not many people around. I think partially due to the security situation but also I think its lack reviews on hostelworld. No onsite tour agency.
- Amitava (9/5): Superb -
- Joshua (10/5): Exceptional - Edison went above and beyond to help us! We are very grateful to him and I would happily return on any occasion I'm in Quito
- Jessica (10/5): Great Hostel - This hostel is beautiful, the staff are very friendly and helpful and the terrace upstairs is stunning. It's a great place to work, hang out, cook, and eat. We booked a private room and the rooms are a great size and very clean.
- Sarah (9/5): Peaceful sanctuary in the city - Friendly staff. Beautiful terraces, very peaceful and tranquil. Lots of space to sit and chill. Breakfast in the cafe was nice - $4 for avocado and eggs, guac was delicious. Juice and instant coffee but you can upgrade to a proper coffee if you like. Laundry service fast and good value. Room was very large and comfortable. Cute Pomeranian doggy at reception Our room only had a small window and it was quite stuffy, with a slight smell. Didn’t hugely bother us but air freshener would have made it a 10!
- Ivan (10/5): Fantastic,highly recommended over our expectations in all -
- Patrick (9/5): Superb -
- Mustafa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Elena (7/5): Good -
- Minhee (10/5): Exceptional - The staff were very accommodating and kind gave me lots of help during my stay. The room was exceptionally clean, cozy and warm! The terrace was the top of my list and an amazing place to relax as well! They also have a very clean and aesthetic coffee shop where I enjoyed a delicious breakfast at a great price! I can really feel the owner’s dedication and love for this hostel!! :)
- David (10/5): Exceptional - Very friendly staff. Comfortable, spacious room, Lovely roof terrace with areas to chill out. Kitchen looked well equipped, although we didn't use it. The attached cafe offered a reasonable breakfast for a very good price. Would stay here again if we come back to Quito All good!
- John (9/5): peaceful, quiet, safe. - The hostel was like living in a garden, beautiful and peaceful. The staff and owners were very helpful.
- Robert (10/5): Exceptional - Rooms 9 and 10 are directly on the very beautiful rooftop terrace which is very green with lots of flowers, even hummingbirds come to feed. The terrace is very quite and has places to sit and enjoy the view.
The rooms are nice and clean and the staff is very friendly and helpful.
- V (10/5): Exceptional - Great value for money. This hostel is walking distance from the city centre and they have an international bank near which doesn't take commission for foreigners.
The staff were really helpful, and they allowed us to leave the luggage for a few days that we were travelling to Galápagos and the Amazon.
The decor is also beautiful and pleasant.
Breakfast for $3 is also great, and they have laundry service and a great kitchen with a terrace upstairs 😀 Our bed wasn't the most comfortable, but we had the economic double room, so the cheapest .
- Jessica (10/5): Little paradise in the city - -The owner is very lovely and he has a cutee dog!
-The garden and eating area overlooking the park is like a lil paradise in the city.
- Love the comfy bed -The area is a little rowdy. Would not suggest to walk around late at night.
- Slightly out of the key historic centre, so it can be a walk.
- Loraine (10/5): Exceptional - This Hostal is one of the nicest hostels I've ever stayed in. The interior design is so beautiful, it has a gorgeous terrace and it's incredibly clean and at a great and safe location in Quito (close to the Artisanal market and a great chocolate shop, the old town is either 15-20 minutes walking distance or easily reachable with the Bus). For business reasons I stayed at the Hilton Hotel across the street the week before but needed a more budget solution for the night before my flight back and I've never stayed at a hostel before where I would say that the rooms are comfier, nicer and especially decorated better than a 4-star hotel but this is the case for Quito Terrace. If I'm ever back in Quito again, this Hostal will be my go-to location to stay. Absolutely nothing, it was amazing.
- Nataliam15 (10/5): Exceptional -
- Danita (10/5): - Easy to get to important sites just by walking. Loved the rooftop...very quiet. This hostel was a lot quieter than others in the area.
- Woojeong (10/5): Exceptional - This is the only place I’d stay in Quito. Dont consider anywhere else! Beautiful and clean facility with extremely friendly and accommodating staff.
- Pia (9/5): We would come again! - Nice and clean kitchen. Super nice terrace and cafe. Breakfast option for 3 Dollar per person. Nice cozy rooms. Warm shower. Bit cold in winter but enough blankets. Bit far from the old town, but we knew that and took an uber for 2-3 Dollar.
- Pilar (9/5): Superb -
- George (9/5): Excellent - The garden outside is very beautiful. There is no restaurant
- Mihee (10/5): Exceptional - clean, cozy and kindness.
If i come to Quito again, I'd like to stay here again.
- Julia (9/5): Superb - The terrace is such a heavenly place in der this noisy city - calm, green and relaxing. The garden is cared for with a lot of love it seems. Beds are comfortable and water is warm. Nothing to say, everything was perfect (except maybe that I didn't get to meet the dog of the hotel I've seen in the pictures before and don't walk around at night which is because it's Quito)
- Ryan_brady (8/5): Very good - Very pleasant and helpful staff. The room was clean and fresh towels were provided often.
The hostel also has a nice coffee shop attached which was very handy.
There is a spacious communal kitchen and supermarkets very close by.
The location was well placed between the historical centre, and Parque La Carolina, where there are many restaurants and shops around. The area where the hostel is located seemed fine during the day time, however we were warned by both tour guides and Uber drivers that the area is not safe at night time. We had no issues during our stay though and would definitely recommend this hostel to anyone visiting Quito as it is great value for money with very nice staff.
