Ecuador Welcome Forum: Where to stay in Quito, historic area ?:

You will be closer to the main bus station if you stay in the historic center. As far as a hotel goes, it depends on your budget. There are luxury 5 star hotels as well as budget properties. Right outside the city center there are also nice hotels, reasonably priced.

95% Ecuadorian food because we are in Ecuador. Personally, I think if people wanted gringo food they would cook it themselves at home. Why would anyone come to Ecuador to eat gringo food?
