Ilalo Garden Hotel & Restaurant

I stayed here for 2 non-consecutive nights as part of a group tour, and I had a different room for each night. The hotel is located in Tumbaco, a 20 minute drive from the airport, and not particularly convenient for central Quito. I think the tour company used this hotel as it was a good launching point to go to other places (Otavalo, Cotopaxi, etc.) without having to deal with central Quito traffic. The hotel felt very fresh and modern on arrival, and the staff were friendly. There was good wifi throughout. There is a lift in this hotel which was great. My rooms were very similar for both nights, the only difference being that the 2nd night there was a bathtub in the shower. The rooms were clean and airy with lots of storage space, and the beds were large and comfortable. The bathrooms were also clean and a good size, with consistent water temperature and pressure. I had breakfast at this hotel both times. It was a reasonable spread but squashed in a small area. There were hot and cold offerings, and they came and asked you how you would like your eggs which was nice. It was a decent breakfast on both occasions. Overall the hotel was lovely, if you have reason to stay in Tumbaco then I would recommend it.

This is a great hotel overall with clean, comfortable rooms and good food. Still, it was also a very far drive into the city and it didn't feel safe at night. Some staff members were absolutely fantastic and others didn't seem to care. This was also true while I was making reservations by email back in the US.

Only minutes away from the vibrant center of Tumbaco, Quito, Ilalo garden is a very quiet and serene place. This is a typical business hotel with neat rooms with a modern design and a very nice bathroom. Everything was to my greatest satisfaction, the staff was very nice and welcoming ( and they speak english!) the room was pristine clean and the restaurant has a rich and tasty menu. If you are a fan of jacuzzi, you can also get a room with one. with breakfast included I paid a very reasonable (even low) price. I recommend it warmly.
