“Very nice, quiet hotel”

We stayed at La Posada Del Quinde for 3 nights - The grounds were very beautiful, location superb, staff wonderful! Maggie helped with anything we needed and even called to change our reservations in Quito so we could stay at her hotel an extra night.

The dining area and fireplace were so comfortable- The smell of wood burning was so nice in the morning with coffee and fruits. The included breakfast was delicious and the dinners were also quite nice. I had an avocado cheese sandwich one night which really hit the spot. The owner is American but she hasn't raised prices like you'd think - Everything is reasonable for the location and compared to competition.

I'd definitely recommend this hotel!

... and we all sat down and listened to music while we ate. It was a pretty traditional Ecuadorian plate, with pork (I think), chicken, salad, shrimp, rice, potatoes and cake, but it did the trick and I think it gave everyone a second wind. Soon enough, the Scotch was going down much easier and everyone (and I mean everyone..including the tiny little grandmother) was on the floor dancing to all Spanish music. It is very common for one glass of whiskey ...

Haggling in Otavalo

... free if the urban sprawl (you wouldn't call them suburbs) and we entered a beautiful area of deep canyons and valleys full of flower farms and greenhouses. The weather was pretty overcast which was disappointing as we were travelling through volcano country and we ended up not seeing any of them. But it was pretty nonetheless and after several hours after passing quite a large lake we reached Otavalo. We stopped in Otavalo to satisfy our curiosity as it’s renowned ...
