    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 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.

    From beginning to end it was a wonderful experience staying here. Franco was a great host and made us feel welcome. The room was comfortable and common areas are beautiful with incredible attention to detail. The breakfasts are varied and excellent with the best coffee I've had in Ecuador. The location is great, walkable to everything. Truly one of the best B&Bs I've experienced in the world.
