El Crater

Located 30 minutes from Quito and 5 minutes from the Equator and the 'Middle of the World' museum, this hotel offers elegantly decorated rooms in a minimalist, ethnic style. Spacious and warm suites boast exceptional views of the Pululahua volcano—one of only two inhabited volcanoes in the world—and the Equator. Large picture windows perfectly frame the beautiful mountain views and ever-changing landscape. Inspired by the surrounding beauty, the hotel was created with an artistic and ecological focus, using materials such as pumice to achieve a thermal building design.
