MANSIÓN DEL RÍO

Opposite the Río Guayas and 5 minutes from the Malecón Simón Bolívar, this is certainly one of the city's most authentic and charming addresses. Built in 1920 under the name of Villa de San Antonio, it belonged to an English nobleman, Sir George Alexander Ashton. Today, it's a sophisticated, elegant and comfortable bed & breakfast. The 11 rooms, decorated in Renaissance style, blend with more modern furnishings. King-size beds, TV, bathroom. Beautiful river views from the most expensive rooms!
