For art aficionados and discriminating travelers, La Posada del Arte is certainly a Baños treasure. In addition to big, comfy beds, and plenty of hot water, the hostel has a cozy sala where you can relax, listen to music or read in front of an inviting fireplace. The hostel is also a showcase for Ecuadorian paintings, including work by artists like Whitman, Soriano, Rueda, Endara and Sanchez, and all of the artwork is for sale. The rooftop terrace boasts stunning views of the surrounding scenery, including a spectacular view of the nearby waterfalls. When your tummy starts to rumble, head to the hostel’s restaurant, which features traditional Ecuadorian dishes, and international plates like curries and pasta. Vegetarian options are also available. The American-style breakfast, fresh fruit juices and fruit salads are also highly recommended—some of the best breakfast in town. The owner is particularly knowledgeable about treks and trails through the area, and even has a notebook full of helpful maps he's made himself.
