Mashpi Lodge
The undiscovered natural side of Quito

About The Hotel
Mashpi Lodge sits at 950 meters above sea level. Nestled between lower montane rainforest and cloud forests in the heart of a 2,500-acre private reserve, the Lodge is a luxurious outpost in the middle of a lush, green world, 70 percent of which is primary forest.
The lodge located in the northwest corner of the Metropolitan District of Quito, the capital of Ecuador, provides guests with an unprecedented opportunity to explore both cloud forest and rainforest – two types of ecosystems that are highly rich in species and biodiversity.
Species thrive here, not only those within the realms of our understanding but also those yet to be discovered. The Mashpi Frog and Magnolia are both endemic to this very forest and were only identified in the last few years.
The lodge’s rooms are spread out across three different floors, all of them designed with floor-to-ceiling windows. Ground-level rooms offer a look into the incredible forest floor, while the mid and high floors offer access to the gorgeous canopy.
