“the best experience ever”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 January 2011

people found this review helpful

you must experience this place to believe the old world charm and desire to serve still exists. from the moment you enter the hotel you are the most important person ever. nothing is too much trouble for the many staff waiting to serve you
we only ever went to the local food restaurant which was superb. we visited it again when we were staying round the corner because this hotel was full. the personal charming friendly service was beyond belief. the breakfasts were the same. the room or suite was vast and it just got better as we explored the different attributes of an old style room with sitting area overlooking the grand plaza. this busy place shows a goldfish bowl of their culture and is lovely to see as everyone seems so happy going about their busy lives.the shower was one of those where you dont want to come out and there was also a jacussi. the welcoming tray of chocolates was in keeping with the indulgent all round service. i cant wait to go back. book early as of course it is popular

“Fabulous Service, Accomodations, Food and Location--STAY HERE”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 December 2010

Lovely old world hotel overlooking the Presidential Palace and gorgeous Plaza in the heart of Old Quito.
the service was fantastic including a freshly blended fruit welcome drink as soon as you walk inside.. There were rose petals scattered around the giant bathtub and sink, chocolates on our pillows at night and very comfortable beds. Free wifi. The breakfast which was included had a wonderful assortment of cereals, sweet rolls and fresh fruits and had the option of eggs made any way you wished. The staff was extremely accommodating whether it was flagging a cab, grabbing your luggage, serving cocktails...they were there to help with a smile. Kudos to the management and staff of the Plaza Grande. I would recommend this hotel to all of my friends and family.

“Beautiful Hotel in the Center of the City”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 July 2010
2
people found this review helpful

I would highly recommend The Plaza Grande Hotel. The staff was very helpful and the rooms were luxurious. Rose petals and snacks upon your arrival make a nice touch.

I have two warnings about this hotel - room size and noise level. The first night we stayed in a big, beautiful room but paid the same high rate for a smaller room on our second visit. Try and get the larger room which has a sumptuous couch and small dining table. My second reservation was the noise. Those rooms facing the town square are the priciest and noisiest. We faced the back of the hotel which was quiet and had a beautiful view of the city and mountains. Definitely a great location where you're able to walk to historic churches and sites.

“I could not believe so much luxury in such a small hotel"”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 June 2010

person found this review helpful

My sister and I went to Galapagos and we were recommended to stay at the Historic Centre in Quito on the first night before the cruise, I am so glad I chose this hotel. The minute we walked in I felt I was sent back in time living in the luxury of the old days in Quito. The room was extremelly luxurios, and the bathroom had a jacuzzi decorated with red rose petals. our Room had a view to the main scare and Presidential Palace was right across. All place is decorated with ecuadorian roses, and when I left the hotel, the charming bell boy gave me one rose to take with me.
Something that I recommend is to order the paila ice cream in the cafeteria, it is very colorfull and had very funny smoke that makes you go crazy with the camera and take pictures.
I saw they also had a carriage ride at night but because of time I couldnt take this service. I recommend this hotel if you really want to experience Quito Historic charm.

I love this hotel. It is small and beautiful and it has a comfortable feel. The service was amazing- always helpful and smiling. I had a wonderful massage in a tiny, but very clean room. The food was fantastic. I would reccomend the Hotel Plaza Grande to anyone.
