Hostería Gilocarmelo

The Quilotoa Loop


This hostería, north of the cemetery, has basic rooms arranged around an unkempt garden with roving turkeys, ducks and geese. The best rooms, on the second floor, have fireplaces and large windows, others are dark, cramped and rather dank. Wi-fi in the office area only. Rustic but clean.

Closed for three years before our last visit, it appears like a Howard Hughes property, dirty old swimming pools and saunas rising from the ashes of neglect.
