2 Stars Hotels in Pichincha, Ecuador

Breakfast is good, staff service is also very good, try the buffet lunch at noon, 13 dollars is also good, you can try it

Hotel Residencial el Viajero more than met our needs for a clean, safe hotel close to the Quito Airport with shuttle service for an evening arrival followed by a super early morning departure. Our host was in the arrivals area holding a card with our name when our flight arrived, even though our flight was several hours late, and we joined a small group of students and teachers also staying at the hotel on the short shuttle ride to the hotel. Our small room was clean and comfortable, with a hot shower, and the next morning our wake-up call was right on time as was our 5:30 am shuttle to the airport (reasonable fee). The folks running this hotel are super nice, and very reliable - highly recommended!

With neat & tidy common areas (the sitting-room like area on the first floor & the garden-like area on the rooftop) and also clean bathrooms and a ”cool water” refill, I had a comfortable 5-night stay at this place; and yes to ”top it all off” in my opinion was the friendliness of all those who ran this place (especially the owner who was just very friendly & obliging with my inquiries and who also invited me for some evening meal on my first day). Just somewhat on the downside though was that there was ”no breakfast” at this place, but yes at just a very short walk from here (to the left after going down the stairs followed by another left at the end of the block) is a small restaurant for a ”quite filling” breakfast (and for a very reasonable price of just about 4 US$); and actually also just directly across the street from that one for breakfast is one which is pretty great for dinner (a Chinese restaurant where I actually had all my dinners during my stay). And apart from food, for toiletry items & such are a number of convenience-type stores right around this hostel on the big street 10 de Agosto Avenue right in front of this place (and can also get from this place itself things like small bars of bath soap for like 50 cents). And although not in close proximity to any sightseeing site (except the ”fairly sizeable” Parque El Ejido which is just directly across Av. 10 de Agosto from this hostel), at just about a 15-minute walk away (to the right after coming down the hostel stairs to the street) is the city's ”largest cathedral” Basilica del Voto Nacional (with ”pretty comprehensive” city views from its 3 towers) with a further 15-to-20-minute walk from that cathedral to the city's ”main plaza” Plaza Grande in Old Town (just an ”ideal area” to spend a whole day along its medium-to-narrow streets lined with heritage-styled buildings); and for just about 6 US$ by taking a taxi in front of this hostel is to the top of El Panecillo Hill with the big Virgin Statue overlooking the city (a site totally worthwhile for ”high-and-wide” panoramic views of the city in pretty much all directions from up there); and also in the vicinity of this hostel (just about a 5-minute walk) is the bus stop for the ”direct bus” to Mitad del Mundo (the ride of just about an hour to the stop right outside that ”huge compound” with the big Equator Monument & many other smaller structures inside). And yes last but not least, having arrived in Quito on like a midnight flight, I'm just really ”quite grateful” to this hostel for its Airport pick-up service (for about 30 US$) & the 24-hour check-in availability.

La Rosario was the first place that I stayed in Quito and I have returned a few times since! I will continue to stay in La Rosario each time I visit Quito. All of the staff is incredibly attentive and kind. The cost is extremely reasonable and I feel right at home each time I visit! Thank you to Erika, Jenny, Ricardo, Emy and everyone else at La Rosario.

Affordable, I booked a triple room for 36 dollars a night, but the actual stay was arranged for a double room, the clean environment was not bad, I could take a hot bath, have breakfast, very close to the airport, suitable for the first night to stay, hit Uber soon arrived. The boss is very good. From Cairo to Quito, I can't smoke for more than 30 hours. I asked the boss for a lighter. I smoked it and added Quito to a slight high reaction. I was a little dizzy.

The best way to start or end your trip! The hotel staff is amazing (shoot out to Alba, Veronica, Kelly in particular and all other members)! The food is delicious, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and there are plenty activities inside the property. Ideal to make new friends quickly! If you doubt what to do, definitely head to Quito Bike Tours on the property. They are a very well-organised team of professionals (located in Selinas) who are very knowledgeable and can show you all the good stuff!

My fiancé and I arrived at this hostel in the afternoon of January 9th when the conflict and city lockdown occurred. We had absolutely no idea what was going on before we arrived, but the staff at Viajero made sure we were safe getting to the hostel as well as being inside. They explained the situation to us and our options and ensured we would be completely safe within the hostel. They did an amazing job of monitoring who was coming and going and making sure only guests who were leaving to go to the airport were allowed out. We did not receive a welcome drink or breakfast tickets that day, but with everything going on we completely understood. Viajero staff did an amazing job of keeping everyone in the hostel occupied that night with updated information, a chocolate tasting, plenty of drinks and food from the kitchen. The restaurant was very nice. The breakfast was $4 and included cereal, juice, yogurt and granola, fruit, and a main meal usually pancakes or eggs. We were not explained the breakfast tickets when we checked in, but we were okay to pay cash that morning when we ate. Dinner was not our favorite, but there was nowhere else to go. The nachos have toppings but no melted cheese or salsa. The next morning, we were told that the military stopped by and said the area was safe and we were okay to walk around again. Viajero staff was more than willing to call La Basilica and Mitad del Mundo for us to make sure they were still open. They were also very helpful in advising us to be back before 6pm and which areas we needed to take a taxi or the best way to get to La Ronda at night for dinner. We stayed in the room right above the entrance to the hostel which was very big and had a balcony and private bathroom. Unfortunately, our balcony was closed for us (there were just some doors closed that we could open but we did not want to.) This would've been a really cool view to have but did place us very close to the street. There is a bus route that runs right in front of the hostel, and it could be quite loud at night or in the early morning 5:30/6 am. The bathroom was very clean and shower was warm. Overall, the hostel staff was very friendly and helpful. They made sure we were safe our entire stay. The cats fight in the garden but sometimes like each other and are very cute. The hostel was clean, organized, and we met some amazing people here!

Such a lovely place and lovely staff. Stayed here for 3 different bookings and everything was lovely not until i left a small plastic ziplock bag with the security guard 28th of Aug 5am on my flight to Galapagos. It has atleast 3 sets of earrings inside, medications, and some other things. I know its my fault too why i left my valuables but i left it with the staff. When i came back he said he doesnt know. I asked the people from the tour company for help. I asked if he’s the guard on duty on aug 28 early AM coz there’s only one and they said they dont know. Whoever has it, i hope karma gets you. Otherwise lovely place!
