El Relicario del Carmen is in the Colonial Downtown of Quito, in a truly historic house, dating back to 1705; a boutique hotel with 18 comfortable rooms.   It has been beautifully renovated with great emphasis on the original details but with all the modern comforts including a central air conditioning system.   Furniture is handmade by recognized Ecuadorian artisans and original paintings decorate public and private areas.  It is located a block away from the main square "Plaza de la Independencia" and the Government Palace, right in the heart of Quito, Ecuador’s capital.

This Colonial house, converted into a comfortable hotel is basic and simple, but with the charm of Quito's architecture and artisans' decorations.   With personalized service and a superb location, it is a 3-star property, for those who want a taste of the local atmosphere.
