Hotel Rincon de Puembo, BW Signature Collection

In the heart of Puembo, a picturesque village minutes from Mariscal Sucre International Airport and a short drive to Quito. This colonial-style hotel sits amid gardens and fountains and is a convenient base for visits to Quito attractions like the Guayasamín Museum and Chapel of Man.

Colonial architecture, domed dining spaces and leafy courtyards set a relaxed, slightly quirky tone. Guestrooms feature LED TVs, private bathrooms with tubs or showers, complimentary toiletries and hairdryers, plus safes and desks. Suites and family-style townhouse options are available for longer stays.

Soak in a heated outdoor pool, unwind in the spa tub, sauna or full spa center, or hit the gym and sports courts. There’s an arcade, karaoke, kids’ play area with inflatable castle, BBQ zones, poolside bar and expansive gardens — wake up to birdsong and blue skies.

A 24-hour business center and concierge services support meetings and events. Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property, 24-hour front desk, laundry/dry cleaning and a roundtrip airport shuttle keep business travel simple.

Two on-site restaurants serve traditional Ecuadorian and international dishes — Las Cúpulas offers a domed, artful setting while El Grill delivers poolside grills and tropical cocktails. A coffee shop/café and poolside bar round out the options, and a daily buffet breakfast is served each morning.
