Vaway Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice place, convenient location, street outside is loud as are the church bells. Do not recommend ordering taxi or Uber from there but instead walk a few blocks away"

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."

Mansión Alcázar Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I recently stayed at Mansión Alcázar in Cuenca, and the experience genuinely stayed with me. After a long day of travel involving buses, taxis, shuttles, heat, and exhaustion, I arrived tired and overwhelmed. The very first thing they offered me was a warm towel. That small gesture meant more than I can adequately explain. It immediately shifted the experience from “transaction” to “hospitality.” I had also been unexpectedly upgraded to a much larger room than the one I originally booked. The room itself was beautiful, quiet, elegant, and deeply calming, but what impressed me most was the feeling behind everything. Nothing felt cold or corporate. The hotel felt crafted rather than processed. One detail that particularly struck me was the room key. Instead of a generic plastic card, it was attached to a large, weighty medallion marked with my room number. It may sound small, but it completely changed the emotional texture of the stay for me. It felt intentional. Memorable. Human. Throughout my stay, the staff were warm, kind, and genuinely welcoming. The atmosphere carried a sense of dignity and calm that is increasingly rare. I have stayed in many hotels over the years, but this was one of the few places that made me pause and truly feel cared for. Thank you for such a memorable stay."
