  • Hotel Campanario

    Cheap hotel in Cuenca
    Avg. price/night: US$36.23
    Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.5
    Very good - What previous guests thought, 287 reviews
    The hotel was great! Good location, very clean, comfy pillows, good water pressure in the shower. It was very quiet overnight. It feels very safe. We did not eat here but saw people doing so and the food looked very good. One thing to note: if you have an early morning check out to catch a flight, unfortunately you will have to wake the concierge - they sleep on-site, all of the lights in the building will be out, and all of the front doors are locked up tight. Not a bad thing, just something to be aware of beforehand.
