Hotel Azul de la Plaza

8/10 Good

"Very convenient location… extremely helpful and friendly staff… English and Spanish spoken… comfortable bed… setting areas located on each floor… Bathroom was small (in the room I was in) but very functional with hot water available… I will be staying here the next time I’m in Cuenca."

ITZA Hotel Boutique Internacional

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing boutique Hotel, great staff and unique style. Perfect location, steps from the main square and cathedral. Highly recommend a splurge in getting the presidential suite, massive beautiful room & bathroom. Their roof top restaurant is great as well, we went for Martini and Jazz night. Also, don't miss out on their breakfast, it is delicious (try the local Ecuadorian ones)."

Hotel Boutique Casa Montalvo Cuenca

10/10 Excellent

"A true hidden gem in Cuenca. From the moment you arrive, you feel the peace, warmth, and attention to detail. The place is beautiful, tranquil, and surrounded by a welcoming atmosphere that invites you to relax and enjoy nature. The service is simply exceptional. The entire staff makes guests feel right at home, always with kindness, dedication, and a genuine smile. The breakfasts are wonderful and prepared to the guest's liking. The delicious homemade bread, the exquisite artisanal jams made in-house, and the aromatic waters prepared with plants harvested from their own gardens are particularly noteworthy—details that make the experience even more special and authentic. Congratulations to the owner and the entire team for their extraordinary work. The love, effort, and passion poured into every corner of this beautiful place are evident. Without a doubt, this is a highly recommended spot for those seeking tranquility, quality, and an unforgettable experience in Cuenca."
