ILLA Experience Hotel & Spa

Through its name, ILLA, located in the old town of Quito, represents “Sacred Light” and “Good venture” and it symbolizes the light that we want to transmit to all of our visitors and tourists in Quito, Ecuador. Being a boutique hotel, which we consider a house from the 17th century, Illa Experience Hotel shares a journey throughout time of family traditions, history, love stories, community, and unity. A luxury hotel in Quito is often detached from a story, from a real past. A luxury hotel in San Marcos, Quito, for us means more than just a boutique hotel. To us at Illa Experience Hotel, we honor our past by remembering it: “Remembering with love, with care, with passion is a virtue that we should talk about more. Remembering is a divine gift that brings life to what could have been forgotten and undermined. Remembering is the ability to see the world differently, to honor it better. It is the virtue to play music in our hearts when hearing a collection of sounds. It is the talent of tasting through scents and odors, of traveling back in time. The opportunity to travel to a place where you felt, emotions and feelings that you forgot had evoked so much happiness, joy, melancholy, and love within you.”
