Travelers considering alternatives can compare it with Carlota, Carlota Sustainable Design Hotel, Hotel Casa Gardenia, Casa El Edén, Illa Experience Hotel, depending on the kind of Quito stay they want. Casa Gangotena is the more direct pick when confirmed recognition is the main deciding factor.
The Quito setting is the point
