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.

Situated in Otavalo, 25 km from Central Bank Museum, El Andariego provides accommodation with a shared lounge and private parking. The guest house features a sun terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property.

We absolutely LOVED this hotel. The staff were so warm and welcoming and the location is fab, right in the heart of town! The hotel has so many little seating areas dotted around each floor we felt really comfortable and at home. There’s a great top floor terrace with views to the mountains where we could sit and relax with a beer, we used the kitchen to cook dinner which is a huge bonus for us backpackers and it even provided the essentials like salt and oil for us to use. The rooms are simple, very clean and we loved the traditional colourful blankets and curtains. I honestly couldn’t recommend this hotel enough. Thank you Team Andariego for such a lovely stay.

    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.

    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.
