COLONIAL ARCHITECTURE
Your horse drawn carriage clip clops you through the narrow streets of old Quito, past illuminated colonial facades and through elegant plazas. It is a beautiful warm evening and the whole town seems to be out on the streets, engaged in people-watching and being seen. The restaurants and colourful cafés are overflowing onto the squares. And at the centre of it all is the wonderfully atmospheric Patio Andaluz.
You were right to specify this hotel as part of your tailor-made holiday to Ecuador. It has a timeless elegance borrowed from the surrounding colonial architecture, and a sense of style all its own. Gracious arches and cool inner patios typify its look, whilst quiet, dignified furnishings and superb city views from grand windows add to its appeal.

The service we received from The Ultimate Travel Company was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.
Planning my first solo trip felt like a big step, but The Ultimate Travel Company made it easy from the outset. I reached out over a year in advance, and Rob Kent quickly put together a thoughtful itinerary based on exactly what I was looking for, securing great flights and always being available to talk things through. Everything ran smoothly and I felt looked after every step of the way. The accommodation in Japan, Fiji and Tahiti was excellent and the experiences unforgettable.
