The view is wonderful and the comfort is top. My room was super clean and the bed was comfy. And, the low price made this place the best value accommodation I've ever stayed at. But stlll, the hosts are the best, warm, friendly, and welcoming! Super recommended!

Loved our host, very sweet people and didn't mind me using Google translate to communicate better. He even took us to a few places most visitors probably don't think about. They prepared us dinner one night which was great! The house is super cute and clean, love the view to the lake. The town is safe to walk I'm at night. Make sure to go to Bambu Grill. Great place to eat.

Set in a charming colonial-style house built 300 years ago, Hosteria Hacienda Pinsaqui features 2 restaurants, and breakfast is provided. Otavalo city centre is 5 km away.

Decorated with stylish furnishing, rooms at Hosteria Hacienda Pinsaqui have wooden floors. All of them have private bathrooms.

Authentic, beautiful old hacienda, set in delightful sloping grounds, with views to mountains either side. We had probably the best room, no 7. Lovely public rooms. Very helpful staff. Nice vibe. Excellent location. We had 4 nights and could have managed a fifth. The rim walk around the crater lake Cuicocha was one of the best day hikes in our life 10/10 wow. 5 hours solid walking. Horse riding and Condor centre also good - 8/10. Otavalo market OK 7/10 and worth going to on a Saturday but. Food was so good we didn’t bother to eat in Octavalo.

Offering a restaurant and free parking, Campo Lago Hospedaje is located close to Otavalo. Free WiFi access is available.

All our rooms have a private bathroom and a balcony with a view of the lake.. There is a TV as well.

The owners are wonderful people. The facility is very clean and if you ask for anything, they are quick to respond and help. The breakfast was great, and way more than we were expecting. The freshly made juices were great. We had 3 rooms and they all had very pretty views of the mountains and lake. There were chairs on the balcony along with the electric kettle to make coffee in the morning. I highly recommend staying here if your visiting Otavalo. Stay for a few days of relaxation.

    The host, Natalie, was smiling and responsive. She welcomed us after midnight, but she was kind and accommodated us in cozy and authentic rooms for the area. In the morning she served us a hot and delicious breakfast, coffee, tea and fresh fruit juice. We know that this business is a new venture for the family. We wish them to find the strength and finances soon to modernize the bathrooms.

    Lovely place, lovely hosts. Eduardo and Nathalie are really friendly and helpful. The cabaña was very nice, clean. The whole place is beautiful, in a quiet environment a little bit outside of Otavalo but not too far. The kids loved the homemade Zipline! And we even got to hear our hosts sing beautiful songs from different countries of Latin America on Saturday night. Breakfast with fresh fruit juice and delicious hot cocoa.

    Wonderful hostel! Owned and managed by a delightful indigenous family who took the time to tell us about local life. Quiet location a bit outside of town, but within easy walking distance, even with kids. Felt very safe and had secure parking. Nice views of the valley and volcanoes. We would definitely stay there again!

    Stunning guesthouse in great location, a couple of blocks from the market. Despite the central location the guesthouse is extremely quiet, with no street noise. The room was huge and the beds were extremely comfortable- we had the best sleep we’ve had in a long time! The architecture is gorgeous, the photos just don’t do it justice! The guesthouse has everything you need for a comfortable short or longer term stay, including a well equipped kitchen if you would like to do some cooking. The host was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

    Such a new, great hostel- the room, bathroom and kitchen were exceptional. I also loved the design. I needs a bit of time to walk to the city center, but that's okay. However, the bus terminal is near.

    Amazing stay at The Traveler Hostel. The staff were all lovely and super helpful, with information on what to do in and around Otavalo. Incredible kitchen facilities for cooking dinners, and a nice space next to reception to chill and watch a bit of Netflix if you fancy. Great location, being a 10 min walk from the town and also close to Waterfalls and bus stops for trips out to the surrounding area.

    Hostal Riviera Sucre is in a great location, you can easily walk to all the sights in Otavalo. The inner courtyard and the garden are very beautiful and invite you to linger. The hotel staff is very friendly, helpful and competent, we felt very welcome and comfortable. The room is big and the beds are very comfortable. The breakfast is very good with a choice of breads, cheeses, cereals and yoghurts.

    This guesthouse was fantastic. The best place we've stayed in Ecuador so far. The room was ridiculously large, with three double beds, a sitting area, and a good bathroom with a nice hot shower. The shared kitchen had everything you need, there are a couple of common sitting areas, plus a rooftop with a small but lovely sitting area. View of the volcano from the roof. There is also a clothes washing machine available. Alberto was a great host and had tons of information about the area. Fantastic value.
