Inti Sisa Art Guesthouse

Very charming place to stay. Clean and comfortable room. This hotel does not have air conditioning and is heated by several stoves in common areas. Their breakfast is wonderful with fresh empanadas and eggs to order. Their dinner is equally well done. They provided an extra blanket and hot water bottle which made the bed toasty for the entire night. They have a school and center for disadvantaged women and girls and also provide a needed pre-school program for children from the area. Just a great mission and place to stay.

Amazing hotel and foundation, was really lucky to meet one of their employees, Kim, through Warmshowers. They are doing great work in a really unique part of Ecuador.

Guamote and Inti Sisi is one of Ecuadors best kept secrets. If you love off the beaten path indigenous culture you must come visit Guamote. They have a Thursday market that is probably the best and most authentic in So Am. Even better than Saquisili! Inti Sisi Guesthouse is community run and the community benefits from your dollars being spent with them and helps to support programs that will keep local children in Guamote. They can also arrange many day trips. This is a beautiful well run guest house. Add Inti Sisi and Guamote to your itinerary.

Not a good experience. The dining room was taken over by a very loud party of about 20 from a single European country. They were playing games or holding contests, everyone loud. We could not even hear each other speak during our hasty dinner. A long lecture broke out. Our comfort was neglected. Worse, next morning we waited 40 minutes for the hostess so we could pay our bill. She knew we were waiting, but was talking with the guide for the European party. We were invisible, I guess. And, there is no place to go from this place. You are stuck in it. And, I hate to say, the art is amateurish. Good food. Wish we could have enjoyed it.

Wonderful Guesthouse (and actually a very professional little hotel) run by Belgians and Kichwa Staff that with its income finances local educational projects in Guamote and in surrounding communities. Great Breakfast & Dinner, great Lounge with fire place, very hot reliable shower, comfy beds, very friendly staff. Feels really good to stay there. You can learn more about the projects and visit the community or do other guided tours. Check their website. If possible come Thursday, thats market day in Guamote, that was AWESOME! The whole town is full of local Kichwa people in pretty traditional dress, selling and buying animals, fruit & veggie and loads of other stuff. Also, stroll to the old train track bridge at the river, just follow the tracks northwest. Its beautiful there...

Nous sommes 2 cyclistes français. Nous avons eu la chance d'être hébergés gratuitement chez Kim Deprenger, une hôte remplie de générosité et de bienveillance. Elle nous a proposé une chambre avec un bon lit. A disposition également salle de bain avec douche et la cuisine. Kim nous a également invités à sa table, le soir, avec un bon plat de lasagne que nous avons bien apprécié ! Encore merci pour son accueil chaleureux !
