Beautiful old colonial home converted into a boutique hotel. It is quaint and affordable, but don't confuse it with their main Santa Isabella Boutique Hotel which is a major cut above.

This charming boutique hotel is ideally located in the heart of Cuenca. The breakfast offered is a delightful selection of freshly baked bread, juice, fruit, eggs, and a choice of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. In addition, the quality of the staff is exceptional across the board. They are courteous, cultured, and highly educated, consistently demonstrating professionalism and a genuine willingness to assist. Their command of the English language is impressive, further enhancing the overall experience.
