Overflowing with history, Central University of Ecuador has long been an institute for life-changing research and ingenious ideas. See if you can join a tour of the campus and talk to some of the students about their studies.

Central University of Ecuador is regularly visited by travelers to Miraflores. But this historic university shouldn't be your only stop in this area. El Panecillo is not too far away and worth exploring.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (252 reviews)

This is a very lovely ecuadorian style hotel, with very friendly staff. It has marvelous decorations all over, the beds are comfortable, the showers are hot. It does not have elevators, but the staff happily carried our bags to the third floor, where our room overlooked a plaza. The breakfast was made to order with a marvelous bowl of fresh fruit. It is right in the heart of the old city and was quite safe to walk at night. It was so nice to stay in a hotel that was different from the cookie cutter american type of hotel.
