Casa Gangotena

Remember when you were little - a newly independent explorer off to discover treasure around the corner or just outside? And the feeling of running inside afterwards to describe the wonders brought by the morning, day, or night? A stay at Casa Gangotena recalls that feeling, but a magnificent mansion has replaced your house, where charming and enthusiastic staff members wait to welcome you “home.”

This beautifully restored, historic mansion overlooks the Plaza San Francisco and harbors some of the most stunning spaces imaginable. 31 rooms feature stylish, contemporary design laden with “antiques, fine furnishings, modern technologies, and quintessential comforts.”

Get out and explore San Roque, the neighborhood surrounding Casa Gangotena, and make the most of the walking tours suggested by the hotel. But be sure to dine in - A newly-commissioned ceiling mural by contemporary Ecuadorian artist Lucía Falconí adorns the ground-floor dining room, creating a colourful focal point for the hotel’s range of classic Ecuadorian dishes and fine international cuisine.
