#7 of 9 hotels in La Carolina by Axel's take. La Carolina is #2 of 5 places to stay in Quito. The best hotels in La Carolina, ranked · Where to stay in Quito

Axel's take: 8.3/10

A friendly, clean Quito base, provided stairs aren't a problem. a simple, independent 3-star in north-central Quito, scored for what it is.

Sandmelis is a simple, independent 3-star in north-central Quito, and we'd pick it for helpful staff and straightforward comfort rather than fancy facilities. Booking.com and Hotels.com guests broadly agree on the welcoming service, clean rooms and worthwhile breakfast; 2026 reviews reinforce the staff praise. Nearby restaurants and access to Jipijapa metro make it practical for northern Quito, though this isn't an Old Town doorstep stay.

The biggest catch is the lack of an elevator: several guests flag hauling luggage upstairs, so request a low floor if stairs are difficult. Light sleepers should ask about private events after one guest reported loud restaurant-party music. The hotel's Kensho Spa costs extra, and breakfast inclusion varies by booking. We'd skip it for step-free access or historic-center atmosphere.

  • Best for: business travelers visiting northern Quito; travelers who value personal service; tour groups on short stays

  • Watch out for: no elevator; Old Town requires transport; ask about private-event noise

  • Location: North-central Quito, roughly seven minutes' walk from Jipijapa metro; not in the historic center.

  • Rooms: Simple, generally comfortable rooms; request a low floor if carrying luggage upstairs is difficult.

  • Cleanliness: A consistent strength across Booking.com, Hotels.com and Google guest feedback.

  • Service: Friendly, helpful staff are the clearest recurring praise, including in 2026 reviews.

  • Amenities: Wi-Fi, restaurant, free parking and 24-hour reception; Kensho Spa treatments cost extra.

  • Fees and surprises: Confirm breakfast inclusion; pets, airport transfers and spa services can carry extra charges.
