This was a very charming place with a lot of history. The views are stunning. It was very quiet and the staff were very friendly. We ate dinner and breakfast at the restaurant and both were very good. Highly recommend this place!

10/10 Exceptional

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.
Juan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We absolutely loved staying at the Hotel Posada San Jose. The views of Cuenca from our room and from the dining room were priceless and so beautiful! The staff was warm and welcoming and very helpful. You step outside of the hotel and you are within walking distance of all of the lovely sites of the historic center of Cuenca. I loved the "old way" of leaving your big room key at the front desk.

Mysigt hotell med fantastisk utsikt

Mysigt hotell med fantastisk utsikt från rummet. Duschen kall en morgon men ordnade sig senare. Tyvärr var det fullbokat i hotellets restaurang, men vi kunde njuta vid baren.

La mejor opción en el casco antiguo de Cuenca

Divino. Una antigua casa colgada en pleno casco histórico de Cuenca. Un pedazo de historia del lugar… un placer haber podido estar alojados allí.

Hotel situado en el corazón del centro histórico, a un paso de todo. Instalaciones algo antiguas. Excelente calidad del restaurante. Muy recomendable

Volveremos

Excelente ubicación. Las vistas desde el balcón son espectaculares y es un lugar acogedor. El desayuno es básico pero funciona muy bien antes de salir a conocer. Aún sin aire acondicionado y en un fin de semana caluroso, abrir la ventana durante la noche fue suficiente. El servicio es muy bueno y el estado de las instalaciones también.

Great views

If you want amazing views this is the place to stay. We had a small balcony overlooking the gorge. Downside is there is no air con & it was very hot. They provided us with a fan when we requested one. We had dinner on both nights we stayed & the food is excellent. We had reserved a table for our first night when we booked this hotel so we had the best table on the terrace. Amazing views. If you want a terrace table reserve as the terrace is quite small. They gave us the same table the following evening. We had breakfast on the first morning which was not very good. No meat/cheese vegetable laid out. A girl eventually brought out some plates of cling film covered ham & cheese. Some hard boiled eggs that looked like they had been in the fridge for a few days. There were some pastries & fruit. We were the only people at breakfast

Charming, nice views

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.
