Hostal Juana De Arco Quito

Review by hotel critic

During my recent stay at the Hostal, I found a charming balance of comfort and value worth sharing with fellow travelers. Nestled in the heart of the historic district, the location is undeniable—the central plaza is just a stroll away. The cozy single rooms come with private bathrooms and, while amenities like free Wi-Fi are available, I appreciated the shared kitchen, which allowed for some DIY meals. The staff here genuinely make a difference; they’re friendly and helpful, providing insights into the local scene. Breakfast is decent, giving you a good start to your day while being mindful of your budget. On the downside, being in an old colonial building means some noise from street traffic, so I suggest packing earplugs. A minor improvement could be made regarding bathroom supplies—having to ask for toilet rolls often felt inconvenient. The airport shuttle service is efficient and reasonably priced, making arrivals and departures hassle-free. For those seeking an authentic experience without breaking the bank, this hostal is certainly a practical choice in an otherwise luxurious market. It's a good investment for a memorable stay in the city.
