Overview

Steeped in three centuries of history and tradition, the Hostería Hacienda Pinsaquí is an authentic Ecuadorian hacienda situated in San Juan de Ilumán, just a short drive away from the Cotocachi Cultural Museum, Condor Park, and the enchanting Peguche Waterfall. When you arrive, you'll enjoy a welcome cocktail, and every room includes breakfast in a charming dining area. 

The Hacienda Pinsaquí offers 30 guestrooms, each exuding its unique period charm. The rooms are comfortable, spacious, and equipped with features such as fireplaces and private bathrooms with shower-tub combinations. The hotel also offers in-room massage services, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. A word of caution—some rooms have bathrooms located down a flight of stairs.

The hotel's culinary options, which prioritize organic, local, and seasonal ingredients, offer a perfect blend of rustic tradition and modern cooking trends. You can savor your meals at the Pedro Freile Larrea Restaurant, enjoy breakfast at the Modesto Larrea Restaurant, or unwind with a drink at the Equestrian Bar.

This is a lovely hacienda with exceptionally lovely gardens, and a walking path through them and property at large. The common areas were especially nice. Although we were there just as a couple, we were invited to attend welcoming receptions for larger groups (10 or so) that were also staying there. The reception included music from a local Ecuadorian group, Ecuadorian drinks and snacks, and a bit of history about the place. Recommend getting the largest rooms or suites available. Read more
