We did enjoy our stay here. It was close to the sights. Our room was clean and comfortable. The two downsides were the constant music next door ( close restaurant) not the fault of the hotel and the WiFi would not stay on. They were very helpful when we needed it.

Charming older hotel in the steep streets of old town Cuenca. Beautiful views and nice proprietors. Breakfast was only “so so”. Good restaurant next door for lunch and a good restaurant up a steep hill for breakfast.

Really nice small hotel located in Cuenca's historic center just steps from the Cathedral. Great view of the mountains, the Parador and the canyon below. Enjoyed the room with old wooden beams and rustic look. The tasty onsite breakfast for a fee was a bonus since there aren't that many options nearby in winter.
