La Casona De La Ronda Hotel Boutique

La Casona de la Ronda – A Boutique Hotel with Living Heritage in Quito

Discover Quito’s past and present at La Casona de la Ronda, a boutique hotel housed in one of the city’s oldest colonial mansions, documented since 1738. Carefully restored to preserve its original architecture—stone foundations, adobe walls, hand-carved columns, and clay-tiled roofs the house now offers 22 elegant rooms that blend historic charm with modern comfort.

Located on La Ronda Street, Quito’s most iconic colonial lane, the hotel places you at the heart of the city’s cultural soul. Once a gathering place for poets, painters, and musicians, La Ronda today is alive with artisan workshops, galleries, cafés, and vibrant traditions. Guests can step outside and immerse themselves in this bohemian atmosphere, meeting local craftspeople and tasting authentic flavors.

Inside the hotel, our central courtyard becomes a stage for daily guest experiences:

• A bilingual presentation and tasting of Ecuadorian chocolate, exploring the journey from cacao bean to bar.
• A sensory coffee experience, highlighting Ecuador’s high-altitude regions and brewing methods.
• Weekly folkloric dance performances, where colorful costumes and Andean rhythms bring heritage to life.
