Casa Gangotena

In the famous Plaza San Francisco, Casa Gangotena brings new life to this mansion that once belonged to one of Quito s most illustrious and influential families. Its neoclassical architecture, recognized as part of the Old Town s UNESCO World Heritage status, wraps around a charming patio adorned with palm trees and an original fountain. Inside, rays from the Andean sun bathe the art deco-style rooms in shimmering light. Reflecting the splendor and elegance of a golden age, they boast antique mirrors, painted ceilings, and sumptuous wall frescoes. From the rooftop terrace, as you sip a delicious local coffee or signature cocktail, you may catch a glimpse of the snow-capped summit of Volc�n Cayambe.
