Accommodation in Quito

Host family

Students reside with selected host families who live at most a 10-minute walk from the school. The families provide furnished single rooms with 2 or 3 meals per day as well as laundry service. Moreover, living with a host family accords you an excellent opportunity to utilize and improve your acquired Spanish skills and learn more about the local culture. Students often form close friendships with their host families that endure long after the student's stay has come to an end.

You will be picked up from the airport in Quito and brought to your selected accommodations. Please note any special dietary needs (if you are a vegetarian, for example) and allergies when you register, so that your host family can accommodate these.
