For innumerable ages, the plains of the south face of Cotopaxi have been famous for natural beauty and productivity. The microclimate that exists there has played host to countless human settlements and many diverse cultural developments most of which are still in existence and can be seen in the artesan markets and popular festivals.
During colonial times, this region was divided into large estates and lately, into fixes Haciendas (country estates) who had their own land to maintain which continues to this day. Hato Verde is part of this rich tradition whose house had been remodelled by the current owners in strict keeping with original materials and techniques. Now we can appreciate the impeccable masonary work on the walls, developing the colonial-come-rustic style of the region. This generates a warm and inviting atmosphere with all the comforts and necessities of a boutique hotel.
