Hotel Caravallo

You can quickly walk from the hotel to several of the area’s top attractions, strolling past a wide variety of cafés and restaurants along the way. A few blocks south of the hotel, you’ll come to the tree-lined Parque Calderón. On one side, you’ll see the Old Cathedral, a 16th century church that serves as a religious art museum. On the other side of the park, you’ll see the New Cathedral (also known as La Catedral de la Inmaculada). Stop by to see stunning façade and stained glass windows. Go a short distance west of the hotel to the Plaza de San Francisco, a grassy spot usually full of vendors selling trinkets and weavings. Walking south, you’ll come to the banks of the Río Tomebamba, an idyllic spot where you can see the city’s most attractive colonial architecture.

Hotel Caravallo is built in a square, with rooms framing a large central foyer. The lobby and the large hall provide plenty of open space for guests to socialize.
