Hostal La Rosa Otavalo

We loved the staff and the breakfast was good and plentiful. Location is great.

Street noise.

A wonderful place that we would happily return to! This hostel offers huge, very comfortable rooms with private bathrooms. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the rooms were very well equipped. We especially appreciated the spacious wardrobe area, which made it so easy to unpack and keep all our clothes organized. Breakfast was served directly to our room at a time that was convenient for us — such a great and thoughtful service! There is also a beautiful rooftop terrace, which was perfect for relaxing and enjoying some fresh air. The staff deserves a special mention. From the lovely housekeeping lady to everyone at reception, they were all incredibly kind, helpful and attentive. We truly felt very well looked after throughout our stay. All the trips and activities around Otavalo recommended by the reception staff were absolutely spot-on. We could always count on their help, advice and excellent recommendations. We also arranged transportation to the airport through the hostel, which was an excellent choice and offered at a very reasonable price. It saved us a lot of time and allowed us to enjoy our last few hours in this beautiful place. The location is also excellent — just a 3-minute walk from the local handicraft market, with plenty of bars and restaurants nearby, and a grocery store directly opposite the hostel. We highly, highly recommend this place! ❤️ If you are visiting Otavalo, this is definitely a place worth staying at. We left with the feeling that we had found a truly special place.

Great location, comfortable spacious room, very clean, helpful reception staff

There is no communal area for relaxing or eating, hence why breakfast is delivered to your room. However this was fine for a short stay in Otovalo as we spent most of our time in the town and ate out.

The staff were lovely people. The hotel is close to the market and bus stop.

I tried several times to book their taxi service and was always told to do it later, then when I needed one they were vexed I hadn't done it earlier. I tried. The floor in the room was so dirty that in the short time between taking my socks off and going to bed, the bottom of my feet were dark. Even the same day the cleaning staff came in. The bed and pillows were very hard. And this last isn't the hotels fault, but it is located on a main street that is never quiet.
