Hotel El Retorno is a family-run hotel in Ibarra, the city in the Imbabura province of Ecuador. It is a place to stay rather than a sight in itself, and it suits travellers who want a quiet base in town with comfortable rooms and attentive, personal service.
What to expect
- A family-run hotel, where the service is personal and the owners' hospitality shapes the stay.
- Comfortable accommodation in a calm part of Ibarra, away from the busiest streets.
- A home-like atmosphere, which many guests find more relaxed than a large commercial hotel.
Why it may suit your visit
If you prefer a smaller, personal property to a chain hotel, El Retorno offers that kind of stay. Its quiet setting makes it a restful place to return to after a day of exploring. Ibarra and the surrounding Imbabura area are known for their landscapes, markets and nearby towns, so a base here allows you to set out in several directions while keeping a comfortable place to rest.
Because the hotel is family-run, it is worth contacting it directly before you arrive to check current rooms, facilities and arrangements for your dates.
