This is a stunning Parador in an old convent and it was lovely just to walk around the place. We ate in the courtyard of the cloisters and although it was slow to sign the bill at the end the food, the atmosphere and general enjoyment was at the top of the scale. Our room was overlooking the courtyard which was fine but some rooms overlook the town which will have spectacular views. There is a good sized pool and we managed a swim after wandering around the old town. The iron bridge to the town is in front of the Parador and crosses the gorge. It is a bit wobbly but not as bad as we read in previous reports. Our only regret is that we should have booked for two nights not one. The location is stunning as is the town and Parador. Do visit the cathedral as that is stunning too.

Amazing hotel, beautiful room, amazing views…

Views are breathtaking and service by staff to match who speak English. Cold AC, wish we got to try the pool with a view but our staff was great.

Sona was so warm and welcoming. Our dinner at this restaurant at the hotel was one of the most magical experiences for me and my daughter. Sona also took the time and care to strategize and organize our transportation to the train station to get to our next location.

Fantastic hotel in Cuenca, amazing location and the building is beautiful. A walk across the (very high) footbridge to the old town. Really enjoyed the stay

Beautiful night view of the hanging houses

Another superb Parador hotel - the third this holiday. The staff were delightful, the room had a marvellous view over the pedestrian bridge leading into town. Parking was nearly a problem as there are only 10 places available (with a further 2 if you count two cars parking in one disabled slot!). However, we were fortunate to find one empty slot when we arrived. There is additional parking available at 25 euros a day next to the Parador. The walk into town is very easy - just a few minutes across the pedestrian bridge (hope you like heights!). Driving through Cuenca ‘new town’ was horrendous - we were glad to be above the ‘new town’ in our lovely Parador.

The hotel is a great.place to stay. Great building and the breakfast was excellent. The location is superb

Amazing location, great views and fabulous breakfast!

Was my Paradores experience and it was fantastic. Everything was perfect from the food, room, location and serve. Highly recommended.

Great location. Nice bar.

Beautiful hotel in 16th century convent. Amazing view of the hanging houses and old town. Food/restaurants were very good. Popular spot. Very nice room with view of Cuenca

El Parador de Cuenca es la mejor opción para aprovechar una visita corta al centro histórico de dicha ciudad. Tiene unas vistas maravillosas del puente, las casas colgantes y el valle.

A beautiful property and great location, with the best view of the hanging houses and Cuenca. The room was spacious and comfortable. I’m just rating the property as OK due to the rude receptionist that checked us in. She seemed very unwilling to do her job that she has paid to do. Fortunately, the gentleman working with her was pleasant.

The room was clean, huge and comfortable. The staff were super friendly and the breakfast delicious.

It is a unique hotel converted from a former monastery. The staff were very kind, and the view from the window was beautiful, making it a truly lovely place to stay. There are few staff, so guests need to handle their own luggage, but it was not a problem for us. The hotel is clean, the room was spacious, and despite being a historic monastery building, the shower was comfortable and we were very satisfied. The restaurant inside the hotel was also clean and the food was very good.

Absolutely gorgeous, and very relaxing to simply stroll about in.

Bathroom and toilet floor covered with somebody’s hair - unacceptable. For the hotel of that level - disgusting! Very bad parking set up - few cars can park for free the rest will be charged eur 25.

Restaurant food not very good and older staff seemed disinterested in doing their job.

The areas were very clean, not noise at all, the food excellent, no air conditioning in March. The staff was nice but not too cooperative. They seemed to be bothered with more than 2 questions. Overall the stay was positive, the views are absolutely stoning 💖
