DESTINATIONS The living area of a new Executive Suite at Hilton Colon Quito CONTINUED FROM PAGE 16 and refreshment center are actually located in a separate building than the rooms. They are connected, but a converted old home houses the business and refreshment center. This isn’t your typical, stuffy business center: All the desks and chairs are made from polished wood and located in the same room as the refreshment center, where you can purchase a glass of wine or a cold beer while you check your e-mail. Much of the house has been reinvented, but it still serves as a perfect replica of the home it used to be, from its beautiful, winding staircase to its wooden floors.
