Hacienda Cusín

Overview

Description

Hacienda Cusín is a restored 17th-century Andean estate at 8,500 ft (2,600 m) altitude in Ecuador. This very personal hotel and its 38 attentive staff are close to the Equatorial Line and the famous market town of Otavalo.

Ancient lakebed soil, a predictable equatorial sun, and avid gardeners have created several acres of year-round flowering gardens including cobblestone lanes, fountain patios, belladonna, bougainvillea, agapantha, foxgloves, orchids, and palms, which attract more than 50 species of birds. Often the snow-capped 15,000-foot (4,570 m) Imbabura and Cotacachi mountains are reflected in Lago San Pablo.

Our sister hotel is Las Palmeras Inn.

Rooms

Personally decorated guest rooms include antiques and/or Andean furnishings, arm chairs, a writing desk, and garden or mountain views.
