ホスタル リビエラ スクレ(Hostal Riviera Sucre)

This hostal is appealing and comfortable in every way. The staff couldn't be more helpful or personable. The ambience is laid back and pleasing. Bed was very comfortable. Breakfast delicious. One block access to a beautiful plaza. I could go on with good comments.

We loved everything about this place. The staff went above and way beyond to be helpful. This will be our go to place for sure.

From the street outside you are looking at a slightly boutique old building. The frontage is older original as are some rooms in the main building and the common areas, then the more modern extension in the garden becomes apparent. Our room in the garden area was large and clean with a pleasant outlook, nice outside seating area and equipped with all the usual resources and heater if required and good WiFi. Parking on the road outside is OK although they prefer you to use their secure locked compound 400m away. Breakfast was fruit juice, bread, butter and jam, eggs to choice, a fruit bowl with yoghurt with tea or coffee. Enough of a choice to start the day. With very nice helpful family staff it is a good choice for Otavalo being just five minutes walk from the market with decent restaurants nearby.

We had the room 20 which has it's own private terrasse with a view on the C volcano (it was very cloudy so we did not see it entirely but still...). We were very impressed with this. The room was very clean and warm and the bed was extremely comfortable. Fredy was very accomodating also and agreed to keep our luggage for the day after the checkout since we left for the airport at n=ight around 7 pm. We could also use a shower just before leaving at night, which was a nice touch. The staff (2 young men) and Freddy were all very nice and made us feel at ease. You can't go wrong with this hotel. It was recommended to us by our driver and we would come back for sure. The shower in our room functionned awckwadrly and we lacked hot water for a couple of minutes each time but overall not a big deal. Also there was not fruits served for breakfast which was a bit disapointing but the fresh juice was excellent so again, not a big deal.

The accommodations that we had were for 3 people and were in the older part of the building. The rooms were clean and adequate but not fancy. What makes this property special are the staff. Everyone was so kind and helpful. They organized our transportation from Quito airport and were happy to do some much needed laundry for us. The owner was very helpful in his suggestions on what to do in the town. The inner courtyard was a lovely space to enjoy the very tasty breakfast (best juice we had in Ecuador!). There was minimal street noise despite it's central location. We would not hesitate to stay there again. It was great value for money!

Amazing place! Great location, but very quiet if you get a room garden side. Freddy is absolutely fabulous and helpful. He drove me to the safe parking up the ride and gave me rides back. Breakfast was great too, with a new juice everyday. Totally recommend this place!

We loved this hotel. Freddie is absolutely fabulous. Very friendly and drove me to an secured off site parking. The room was very spacious and clean. The breakfast was Lovely too and the location is perfect. I would highly recommend.

The hotel is quite good situated very closed to the market place and Otavalo downtown. It is actually the oldest hotel structure in Otavalo, with typical rooms and a beautiful inner garden; don't be mislead by the extenal appearance. We have been given a quite nice accomodation in the "tower" that was wide, clean and provided with all necessary facilities for independent travelers. Also the personnel of the structure treated us very well.The only small inconvenience was given by the car parking, a little bit far away from the structure.

We were only supposed to stay in Otavalo for one night, but a mishap with not getting our rental car forced us to change our plans drastically and we ended up staying here for 4 nights. We were honestly very happy that it happened. The hostel is very well taken care of. The owner does speak English, the rest of the staff speaks little but they were all very helpful and attentive. Breakfast each morning was bread/butter/jam, juice, eggs and coffee. The location is great, very close to the town square and the daily markets. The garden area inside was gorgeous. We were even able to have our laundry done. The owner also has a trusted contact for longer drives outside of the city if needed. We utilized this for an afternoon hike and a visit to Cotocachi (which is a must if you are in this area). Overall, this is a wonderful hostel in Otavalo with friendly staff, a convenient location, and a great atmosphere.
