Just walking through the doors tells you that you made the right decision. All the public areas are beautifully decorated, the staff I encountered spoke enough English to make things easy. It's always good to know a little of the language for the country you're visiting also!! My friend and I rented a room with two double beds. Large, nicely... More

The hotel's location is a big plus in every way. The staff welcomed us to the point we felt like family, catering to our every want and need. The cost is very reasonable for a luxury hotel. Rooms are spacious, clean and well appointed. We will return and HIGHLY recommend staying at the San Juan Hotel.

The San Juan in Cuenca is a jem. The hotel is decorated in even the smallest places in a fine Ecuardian style. Rooms are large, beds great, and baths excellant. The staff is the best part, always ready to help and very proffesional. Well located. I have now stayed here twice.

As a potential future expat, my wife and I were curious about what it is that puts Cuenca on the top of the list as "the most livable retirement community in the world" for three years running according to InternationalLiving.com and various others. So after our Galapagos Island and rainforest trips, we decided to skip Machu Pichu and headed to... More

Gorgeous hotel & property. Staff very helpful and friendly. Breakfast every morning included in room price made it a great value, tasted great too! Loved the yogurt! Location was great, everything you want to see in Cuenca is within walking distance. Would definitely stay there again next time we are in Cuenca!

The hotel is impeccably decorated, absolutely amazing. Reasonable pricing. Rooms are very nice, large, with good, clean bathrooms, lots of hot water and pressure. The beds are comfortable, and the service was great. Free wifi with good bandwidth, but it didn't reach into my room at the back of the hotel. Lovely little courtyard, nice restaurant. The location was right... More

After researching hotels in Cuenca we decided that San Juan was the best choice since we would be staying for a week. It is truly a lovely hotel, great location and immaculately maintained. Upon arrival "Maria" was most gracious and checking in was prompt. The negative side was the restaurant service, very slow, we would arrive early for breakfast and... More

We stayed here one night, and really enjoyed it. It is a lovely, charming, very clean hotel in a good location. Breakfast was good. We would stay here again, should we return to Cuenca. Be aware that there is no elevator.

The completely renovated Hotel is on of the best places we have stayed. (We have traveled to every continent of the world for the past 35 years) We have stayed in superior five start hotels; what makes the San Juan uniques is that for $75 (Europenan Plan) you get a 21st century room in a 250 year Colonial Home complete...
