This property was perfect to begin my holiday. From organising them to pick me up from the airport where they were there waiting for me to the friendly demeanour of all staff. It was perfect to relax and get over jet lag with the lovely walks and beautiful site with many places to relax and experience nature whether the sun was out or raining (with lots of lovely sheltered views.

Unique in the valley below Quito, this Hacienda allows you to decompress in comfort in a natural environment within reach of the airport. Management is attentive and the food and ambience exceptional. We plan to stay again soon.

Beautiful property set next to an impressive canyon in excellent location close to the airport.
Restaurant is very disappointing both in terms of service and food quality.
5.0
Beautiful place to spend a night or two close to the airport. Only downside was an extortionate charge for taxi pick up and drop off: twice the price of a taxi to Quito yet only half the distance.

Had an amazing stay at this property! We received excellent service start to finish, the owner and staff treated us like royalty and with such kindness. Definitely will return and visit this place again next time we’re back in Ecuador.

We enjoyed our short stay at Hacienda Jimenita prior to traveling to the Galapagos last month. The staff was kind and accommodating and the grounds are beautiful. It was great to be in nature and hike around the property prior to flying further. Our room was adequate and had everything that we needed for our brief stay. It was the perfect start to our time in Ecuador. We enjoyed the convenient location - less than 20 minutes from the airport as well.

Hacienda Jimenita has fabulous rooms and grounds with a 5000 year old tunnel. The vegetation, forest and canyon are wonderful. Meals ate excellent and well-priced, and Oscar makes a great martini. The staff is very welcoming.

This is our second time staying at this place. We enjoyed both visits very much. The place is a nature reserve with an abundance and different type of hummingbirds, Llamas and horses. The owner has two adorable and friendly dogs. The property also has hiking trails with beautiful forest plants and flowers. Rooms are clean and comfortable with a private bathroom. The staff is very friendly and willing to help with whatever you ask. They have a restaurant with an excellent chef. We never had any problems with their water or food.
We definitely will stay there again❣️

The property was amazing and very beautiful. It is a very cool place. However, the restaurant is incredibly expensive. It was more expensive than anything else in Ecuador we went to and much more expensive than even similar things in the USA.

Owner family are very nice. Helped us on all our questions. Luis from reception is always smiling, he helped us on the chimney every night. All staffs from the restaurant are very friendly. Must try their food, the chief is amazing. They also have a nice and easy trail onsite to explore.

This property has lovely old world charm. The owners take great pride in this piece of family history. We loved sitting on the veranda with the gorgeous hummingbirds buzzing around. We enjoyed sitting by the fire, both in the Hacienda and our room. The staff was wonderful and Daniel arranged a fantastic nature day tour to go bird watching. (We arrived during protests in Quito, so visiting the city was not advisable). We highly recommended Hacienda la Jimenita.

I stayed here one night before heading out to Galapagos and it was a very relaxing way to deal with jet lag and prepare for th my next trip. I especially liked the trails and being able to spot the wildlife. Having stayed in Quito on my return from Galapagos, I can say that this spot out of town was quiet and relaxing and the perfect get away from the hustle and bustle.
4.0
Peaceful setting after spending several days in Quito. The meals were very good-thoughtfully prepared. We spent a pleasant afternoon with Sara driving to the middle of the earth museum. Taxi drivers to airport were prompt. Very nice setting for a group. If we ever return to Ecuador, we’d like to stay here.

Im so happy that i found this fantastic hotel in Quito. Its 20 minutes from airport but, you feel like you are in the middle of this gorgeous jungle! Hotel has trails to explore, an amazing variety of birds and even llamas! The owner was around welcoming the guests, very friendly staff. Food was very tasty! Its a piece of paradise! We stayed two nights before our Galapagos trip.

It’s a beautiful and safe property with numerous trails that lead to bird watching spots and llamas. You’ll be given carrots to feed the llamas. We couldn’t find the trail so I wished they had signs leading to the llamas. Breakfast was free, a basket load of laundry is $15. The only minor inconveniences were that it’s not in walking distance to anything, they have to call a taxi for everything and you do hear the planes at night. Make sure to take earplugs and white noise. Have your meals in the patio and enjoy the numerous hummingbirds that come to the feeders.

We loved our stay here, it just wasn't long enough (only 1 day and night). The rooms are large, comfortable, and nicely decorated. The common areas are unique and interesting. The grounds are fabulous. We spent a good part of the day hiking, enjoying the views and the flowers. We had several meals, including a lovely anniversary dinner.. The owner, Daniel, is kind and friendly. It is a short ride to the airport, where we had to be early the next morning. We were so glad we spent our last day and night at a place that was purely Ecuadorian rather than some bland hotel.

We only stayed one night, but I wish we had at least a week. Everything about the place is just neat. from the real wood fire in the lodge to the walk in shower in the room. It was like traveling back in time. The place is nothing short of magical. We hiked a little before it got dark, the grounds were beautiful and the trails seemed to go on forever. The food at their restaurant was top notch. The staff was very polite and accommodating. Just loved it.

After spending a week traveling around Ecuador, we stayed at La Jimenita for our last day and night, and I am so glad we did. The property exceeded all expectations. It is the most beautiful, hidden away oasis.
You can spend the entire day walking the trails surrounded by beautiful trees and flowers, stopping to feed the llamas carrots, and birdwatching. The grounds are stunning, and the staff is so attentive and kind - not to mention the perritos.
I highly recommended ending a busy trip by relaxing here for a few days.
5.0
The beauty of the gardens and trails are magnificent. There are numerous outdoor areas to sit, with hummingbirds constantly flying to the beautiful flowers. The staff is so accommodating to your needs. While a somewhat limited menu, the food is wonderful and very fairly priced. We stayed only 2 nights and would love to have stayed longer. There is even a long Inca tunnel on the property to tour.
This would be a fabulous location for a retreat or small seminar

I was arriving very late at night traveling as an experienced solo female, staying near the airport for early departure in the morning. I confirmed directly with the hotel manager twice, including one week in advance, that they would pick me up at the airport. After waiting at least 30 min and trying to get someone to call the hotel from the airport with no answer, I took a taxi. The driver had much difficulty finding the place and was my angel. He rang the bell for 20 minutes and someone finally answered in pajamas. I feared even entering this place by now, it is 1 a.m. The man at the hotel said I did not have a reservation but did settle me in a room luckily. I wanted to love this place and avoid the American hotels, but I cannot recommend this place. My friends from US recommended the Wyndam at the airport, and I noticed a full parking in the morning. I guess I know why.

This is not your typical “airport hotel“. It comes with spectacular grounds and a birdwatcher is paradise. Terrific trails around the property which is immense . Staff could not be more helpful and gracious.
2.0
Excellent hotel. Beautiful grounds. Great little hike! Wonderful hummingbird experience. Very good food. They kept our luggage between our adventures to different areas, which was so helpful. They amazingly did our laundry in about 3 hours, but it was expensive. Only complaint is that shower was only lukewarm. Really great respite between adventures. Easy cab ride from airport. It’s in a random, out of the way location, but cab drivers all seem to know it by name.
3.0
A great Ecuador experience with walking tails and inca tunnels to explore.
Guides easily available for day trips.
Quito could be easily reached by taxi for a visit but the hacienda was a much nicer area to stay.

Excellent hotel and wonderful service
5.0
This hotel is an old hacienda from 1910 with a cool nature trail. There is a great breakfast provided in lovely dining room with a fire place. The land scape is nicely maintained with pretty flowers and birds all around.
We even were feeding llamas with carrots. It is all plesantly surprising finding for the hotel within 15 min from the airport.
The advice: take the transportation arranged by the hotel for a reasonable fee. They will even meet you in the airport. Do not be put off by the back roads taken to get to the hotel. They look a bit sketchy, but that is part of the charm :).
5.0
This family run Hacienda has a very warm atmosphere, well maintained and a great ambiance.
Location is excellent for a stay over prior or after a flight. Felt at home in beautiful acreage where we could hike on interesting trails. Tropical gardens, abundance of birds and spots to sit and view them. Pet Lamas to feed. A mysterious tunnel that turned out to be historical and fun to explore. Two eager small french bull dogs happily following any willing friends about the property. The owner and son speak English and instigate interesting discussions with any willing guests, by the always burning fireplace in the great room.
We had a few travel problems related to flights and they kindly helped sort it out. They helped organize day trips from the hotel, although these were quite expensive ( eg 80$ US for a round trip to Quito). The local area has several walks that are nice and felt safe. One day trip to a thermal spa surrounded by volcanoes was marvelous.

We were just there overnight getting in around 9:30 pm and were picked up the next morning at 11, but we loved being there, even if just for a short stay. It was very authentic and delightful in its style. Beautiful hand embroidered linens on the bed. Gracious hosts and excellent breakfast.
