Hotel Mama Cuchara by Art Hotels Ecuador

Old Town Quito — Ecuador

The Spanish colonial house in which Hotel Mama Cuchara is installed holds many stories from the 18th and 19th centuries, including a conspiracy to assassinate the president.

Today the mansion is a place for happier events. A private art collection and rotating exhibits of Ecuadorian artists have transformed the hotel into a lush gallery. A perfect combination of the old and the new, a signature of the Art Hotels group, makes Mama Cuchara a unique stay in the capital of Ecuador.

IT’S REMOTE BECAUSE it’s an immersion in the essence of Ecuadorian culture through art, architecture and gastronomy. Considered the heart of the house, the restaurant La Plaza offers a menu that introduces guests to seven provinces of the country.
