“Amazing stay!”
Really nice hotel with amazing paintings! She prepared a really delicious meal for us too, surprised us with decoration for our honeymoon and turned on the whirlpool just for us. Everything was great and it's a good spot to start to the quiltao Lagune and rest when it's raining.

“Good value for money”
the host was very kind and always ready to help. it was cold and provided some heaters for the room. He also prepared a fire in the living room to help us warm up. The shower was good and overall the value for money is great.

“A convenient and comfortable stay, with a nice welcome.”
Off road parking space was available but not secure. Small inconsequential village but only a short drive to the top of the route down to Quilotoa crater lake, however there are a couple of hotels at the actual site which also had restaurants and a bit more atmosphere. The room at Imperial was excellent, spacious with lovely comfy beds, warm bedding and a nice large shower room, though the hot water was a bit sketchy. We sat downstairs in the evening playing cards because there was a cosy fire. The family were sitting there too and were welcoming, we had a clumsy but charming conversation with the aid of google translate, & my son played pool with the young boy, Alejandro, which pleased him. A stay with a feel of being part of the family.

Room was big, super comfy warm bed which is ideal in the mountain climate. Bathroom was clean and shower was hot. Food excellent and the host was very helpful. This place stands out from the external area. We were allowed to store our bikes safely in the reception area, room for 2 small bikes.
