Extremely lovely stay here. The staff were wonderfully helpful with several questions I had that were well beyond normal concierge-type requests (e.g. about being invited to dinner at someone’s home). The rooms are really well decorated, the views are breathtaking, it’s two blocks from the things, and the building is just ridiculous. Standouts for me were the Picasso sketches and the 300 year old ceiling (pictured).
Pro tip: ask for a tour.
My only negative was that the free coffee with breakfast was a little burnt. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Muy bonito lugar
Bonito y tradicional. Colonial
Beautiful building with ornate decor. Excellent breakfast and extremely helpful hosts.
My family and I can't say enough about the opulent Casa San Marcos hotel. A former palace, there are so many artifacts and dedicated rooms that is seems as if you're staying in a museum. The rooms are wonderfully appointed, the breakfast on the terrace is magical - but what really stands out is the attentiveness, the courteousness, and the thoughtfulness of the staff, starting with Augusto, the general manager, and including Santiago, Rosa, and Clara. When one of my daughters got sick, they sent up chicken noodle soup and made sure she had hot tea at all times - all of this on their own. We were treated like family - and our stay at Casa San Marcos truly was memorable. Future trips to Quito always will include this precious boutique hotel with its wonderful staff!
Acogedor
Hermoso hotel,en un hermoso lugar.en la Noche,se puede admirar su belleza.
Casa San Marcos, una mansión de 1702, con una fachada de fecha 1920, que se ha convertido en un paraíso para los amantes del arte y la cultura. La cuidadosa restauración y atención al detalle permite a los visitantes apreciar las técnicas de construcción y decoración colonial.
Cuando se llega a Casa San Marcos tu primera impresión es asombrosa. Al pasear en torno a su mansión decorada con buen gusto, que cuenta con una galería, una tienda de antigüedades, una cafetería y un restaurante pequeño, sus patios y jardín, además de un hotel boutique de seis habitaciones que ha sido decorado con piezas de arte antiguo.
La galería contiene una colección increíble y la variación de pinturas, algunas piezas originales de la época republicana, y otros de la época contemporánea.
Los llenos de arte, habitaciones de hotel sobriamente decoradas ofrecen un ambiente agradable y cálido. El menú terraza cafetería ofrece exquisiteces locales, fusión ecuatoriana urbana todo servido con una vista espectacular de El Panecillo, lugar de interés cultural de Quito y de atracción turística.
Went here a couple of years ago and it was great. There were some Picaso sketches, cool furniture and other artistic tidbits. Breakfast was also great.
Lovely hotel and very responsive hotel staff.
