La Posada del Quinde, hotel in Otavalo

Situated in Otavalo, 25 km from Central Bank Museum, La Posada del Quinde features accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace.

This was one of our expensive stops on our trip. In the end we didn't mind the cost as any excess that we thought we were paying is going to charitable causes. We would encourage everyone to do this. This is a wonderful place with wonderful people and a wonderful mission. And the rooms are good. And there are lashings of hot water. And the staff are great and so is the breakfast and the restaurant and it's only four blocks walk from Poncho Plaza. Please come in droves and add to the successes of this place. We stayed an extra night and were sad to leave. Great communal sofa area with log fire as well!

    An ideal size city, big enough to have a lot going on, but small enough to be easy to get around on foot and feel safe even out in the streets at night. So many great places to eat, and of course the crafts markets including the Plaza de Ponchos (but be sure to check out the other markets more off the tourist track) are amazing. Outside the city, the surrounding villages and attractions such as the Peguche waterfalls are worth the time to go see.

    We took a bus from Quito to Otavalo and then used taxis to get around very cheaply. The highlights were visiting Parque Condor (so many birds of prey to view in large cages, all rescued, including two condors), a ride on a boat (30 min) at Cuicocha National Park (its a crater lake created by a volcano), and of course shopping at the Otavalo Market (so many beautiful handmade items to purchase).

    We went for the market, which merited the half-day we gave it. The local handicrafts and products are swamped by the imported goods (often Chinese nonsense and knock-offs) and household supplies that are of little / no interest to tourists. Even our most ardent shoppers came away empty-handed, which is unfortunate for the local vendors. It was a good jumping-off point for a trip to Cotacachi (famous for its leather but not on Sunday!) and Laguna Cuicocha, a crater lake with nice views and multiple hiking options, which we enjoyed.

    Otavalo is lovely, the markets are amazing.

    Otavalo is lovely, the markets are amazing. Just DO NOT STAY AT Los phonchos appartment. it is extremly noisey, the owner is a cheat and a lier. He will rip you off. He tells you one thing, then will rip you off. BE AWARE. DO NOT STAY THERE> Not to be trusted. There are lots of other lovely places to stay. Places that are honest.

    Please to not do the Laguna hikes by yourself.

    Please to not do the Laguna hikes by yourself. I did the laguna cuicocha hike on a saturday solo but had been seeing other groups and I was taken into the rocks off the trail by a man with a gun and knife. He robbed me and took advantage of me. It was the scariest moment of my life. Please please please do not to this hike alone and only go with a group. I only was able to visit the Mercado 24 de Mayo which was wonderful for local food before I left the town because I couldn't be there anymore.

    The Otavalo market is a shadow of its former self.

    The Otavalo market is a shadow of its former self. The market is flooded with cheap goods from China - microfiber children's clothing, trinkets, etc. It's hard to find the local products, and there are few left. Should be removed from tourist routes!

    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.

    Almost nothing. There was no restaurant, no vending machines, and the desk was never staffed. It felt like staying in a hotel from a horror movie. The pictures posted on booking.com are very deceiving and it’s not close to the lake as they portray. Staff was not at the desk at checkout and we had to return later in the day to pay. Avoid this hotel if possible!

    Great location with everything you need for a comfortable stay in Otavalo! Super close to the bus station and the plaza de ponchos (walking distance). Kitchen area, outside communal space, hot shower, great wifi and info about what to do and where to go! The owner was super helpful and even accommodated a slightly later checkout as I had a race in the morning!!

    My primary reason for visiting Otavalo was the Saturday morning Poncho Market and Dona Esther is located at a short distance from there. The Dutch couple who own the place are helpful and friendly, as are the staff, although few speak English. Wendy, the owner, had a small electric heater put in my room, which I really appreciated.

    Unbelievable staff who were always preset and ready to accommodate. Independent local guide, Christian, who was recommended by the hotel, gave us an outstanding customised tour. There's so much to see in the area, but much can only be uncovered with a guide like Christian. The price he charges is very reasonable.
