Enjoy nature and Ecuadorian tradition at our Eco-Lodge & Botanical Reserve. San Jorge Botanical Reserve is on 200 acres and is the only private native reserve near Quito, located in the Pichincha foothills. The location is 17 minutes from Quito Airport, yet a world apart from the busy city. This is so convenient it is an ideal overnight stop for anyone coming and going to Galapagos. But, it is so much more. Lovingly restored, the owners have taken great pains to create unique rooms with authentic furnishings as well as each having its own in room fireplace. The dining room is also extremely charming with white linen, great views of the valley and old world elegance. Additional tours to Indian markets, Otavalo, other haciendas, Cotpaxi hiking, Bellasvista and Mindo Cloudforest, Mountain biking, horse riding and more can be arranged on request.
