Excellent hotel!

Of a three week trip to Ecuador, this was my favorite hotel! This hotel was great! The manager, Henry, spoke English well and was very attentive to our needs for our 4 day stay. The breakfast was excellent each morning. One evening we ate at the on site restaurant and ouor food and service was again great! I loved the unique old building. there are lots of exquisite touches. I also loved the decorating. Our room was hand painted with floral designs on the walls. The only downside was that on Friday and Saturday nights there was a loud band playing somewhere up the street. They played until about 2 am. Even with the windows closed we could hear them.

Los Balcones is a great place to stay while traveling in Cuenca - location is perfect & staff are friendly. We stayed in the one bedroom apartment & found it to be very comfortable during our 5 nights
Hotel is just a few blocks from the square & new church
Kitchen & spacious living room was helpful during our stay (we could get our work done)

Cuenca a pie

Reservamos una habitación con dos camas y balcón, la habitación esta en la parte antigua del hotel por lo que la vibracion de los autobuses en la calle dificulta un poco en descanso pero en general la ubicación del hotel es optima para conocer la ciudad de Cuenca a pie.
