My wife and I stayed at the Hacienda one Friday night before the Otovalo market. We got in early. I would recommend this. We were able to take a horse back ride. We are both experienced riders so it was just us going out with the guide. We were able to canter all over the countryside. It was great fun.... more

Our stay at the Hacienda Pinsaqui was a dream. The grounds are absolutely beautiful! Our room was much larger than we expected (especially since 3 of us were sharing one room.) The staff was friendly and helpful. Every evening the staff lit the fire while we were at dinner. (Oh - at dinner try the chicken lasagna! It is NOT... more

We arrived here on the second day of our honeymoon desperate for a relaxing day and even though we were here only one night it felt like a week! Incredible service, ask for the room with the jacuzzi, four poster and beautiful view of the gardens. Close enough to get a $3 cab ride to town for the market. We... more

We enjoyed our 2 nights stay tremendously.It has a great atmosphere.Service is impeccable, comfortable accommodation(room 28)(if a bit basic).Nevertheless Both Monica the administrator and Andre the manager went out of their way to help with all our needs including the arrangement of a guide/driver for the day, when our driver's car needed repair. Highly recommended. more

The welcome drink with history of the hacienda in the atmospheric bar before dinner was a... more

It's grand - our room (#8) had a queen size bed, a large sitting area with fireplace, a bathroom and a jacuzzi. The common sitting areas and the gardens are elegant. Evening cocktails and appetizers are served at... more

We took the bus from Quito to Otovalo, climbing up through the desert and the arid canyons into the mountains and fields. With each mile it became greener, and more fertile. Otovalo is the prosperous market town in the centre of this agricultural heartland. Hacienda Pinsaqui was one of our highlights in Ecuador, a fabulous base from which to explore... more

A fine taste of hacienda life. Larg, comfortable rooms, good food and very friendly staff. more

I stayed at the Hacienda Pinsaqui for a very beautiful wedding last summer, and while the grounds and facilities were quite beautiful and the rooms very comfortable and spacious, I couldn't get over the fact that I was paying $100/night IN ECUADOR! After the wedding, I traveled with a friend and stayed just outside Otovalo at small hotel/hostel for about... more
