    Beautiful historic city.

    Beautiful historic city. We were there for four days and could not find time for all the tours and attractions. I would suggest a tour with Cuenca Bestours. Very reasonably priced for a full day tour. They picked us up at the hotel in the morning and returned us at 5:00 after a wonderful day. If your physically able to hike take a $5 taxi ride to Amaru Biopark zoo. It took us about 3 1/2 hours to hike the grounds. The animals are mostly rescues and well cared for with large enclosures. Our favorite restaurant was by far Capitan. If you are looking for a gourmet meal this is the place, wonderful atmosphere and exceptional food. Our hostess and waitress were lovely and so committed to our satisfaction. The chef even popped out to our table to ask if we enjoyed the meal. The food was so delicious. I ordered salmon, medium cooked which was perfect with a delicious sauce. My husband order the sea bass and the sauce was so flavorful. It is quite cool at night in Cuenca so bring pants and a light jacket. It is a bit warmer during the day but not humid like other parts of Ecuador. My husband and I are thinking of purchasing a condo there for seasonal use, definitely will be returning to this beautiful city.

    Cuenca is a lovely city. The architecture alone is worth the trip. The Pumaponga museum is excellent. There are also several nice rivers. Good food, friendly people, easy access to everything you want to see and do.

    Cuenca is beautiful, with amazing squares and historic buildings and churches. It is also a city where people live so it has a wonderful safe air about it with amazing restaurants, bars and cafes. We were going to stay in Quito, but it was quite derelict in areas, and we were constantly warned about our safety and not to stay out after dark... So, we went to Cuenca and could not have been happier. I want to go back already!

    We enjoyed the historic town of Cuenca.

    We enjoyed the historic town of Cuenca. There are wonderful things to see just going down the street. There are markets, churches and shopping galore, Lots of wonderful sights to see. The rivers and parks are beautiful. We particularly enjoyed the Pumapungo museum. The Hotel Victoria is centrally located with a great staff (our second stay there.) The breakfast was fit for a king and queen. This is our third visit and next time we want to stay for at least two weeks or more. Taxis are great and inexpensive. We don't do public transportation, but it is easily available. Ask locals if you suffer from <soroche> (altitude sickness) and there are "scrips" for this. The people are warm and friendly. The Sheraton is out of town but near Turi and has a high-end restaurant. The Hotel Inca Real is quaint & historic with a wonderful restaurant, in the historic district. The Mansión Alcazar is nearby if you are on a bigger budget, and has a wonderful restaurant. The museum that is one or two doors down from the Hotel Victoria is beautiful, historic and has a great café as does the Museo del sombrero de paja toquilla (the <Panama> hat that really came from Ecuador) Don't miss the Dos Chorreras chocolate store and I believe they also have lodgings.

    A very walkable and safe city. So beautiful and clean. Impressive architectute, well preserved. The perfect spot for jogging were the paths running alongside Tomebamba river. Spectacular and surrounded by vegetation. I'd visit the place, again.

    A great place to spend Easter week.

    A great place to spend Easter week. There is a beautiful cathedral in the center of the city and many smaller inglesas close by. The city is located in a valley at an elevation of about 8,500 feet so it is pleasantly cool year round. Lots of Inca history here predating the Spanish by hundreds of years. The city center is very walkable but taxis and buses are plentiful and very inexpensive. There is also a Metro system.

    The room we got on the first night was small and at the very end of the garden. We asked for another room and we’re given a beautiful room with a spacious living room in the main building. Breakfast was very good and service was excellent. Front desk staff were very attentive. The hotel is lovely, gracious, with an old world charm. It is very well maintained; gardens are beautiful and it is located very centrally. I would definitely recommend this historic hotel to anyone visiting Cuenca.

    First off, the staff were all super helpful and booked a couple of day trips for me. They don't have a tourist agency there so the staff was able to find something for me cheaper than I could on my own. And the trips were great! Now, any review would be incomplete without a mention of Empanada. She is the best cat in Ecuador (undisputed) but also quite possibly the entirety of South America. I love her. Also the rooms are very clean and comfortable! But....Empanada. She is everything.

    If you are looking for luxury this is not the place. It is a basic hotel, the facilities are quite old. I was disappointed that I booked a king size bed and on arrival I got a small bed in the comments mentioned that the plus of the place is the big beds. I never saw a picture with a small bed.
