The location is great, right across from a beautiful park and church with restaurants across the park. The room was nice but was missing the shower door and the floor could have been cleaner. The staff were awesome, helpful and friendly. The coffee was good but the breakfast was just okay although the scrambled eggs were great. Overall I would recommend and stay again.

I loved everything about the hotel. First of all it’s very beautiful and cozy. The care and attention of Eder and Erica to the guests were exceptional 😃 I liked the walking distance to many attractions. It’s very clean and maintained. I would definitely stay there and recommend this hotel. Look no further it’s a nice and safe hotel 😃

Hotel Azul is in the most historic part of downtown across from lovely Plaza de San Sebastián. If you tell a taxis driver “Plaza de San Sebastián,” that’s all they need to know. Not a lot of traffic on this street but taxis on streets above & below. We stayed 9 nights in this small modest hotel and loved it. The staff is very friendly & helpful. Everything downtown is in easy walking distance & there’s lots to see. First floor is one flight up, but luggage assistance is available.

Wonderful staff, good area if you want to be in the middle of the life of a busy city. Lovely park across the street. The room I rented faced the park, and each night, to my surprise, there were huge speakers set up for a Zumba class from 8-9. The door on my balcony did not close completely, so the sound came directly in, as did all sounds from the very busy area. Breakfast was good, but it did not show off the wonderful fruits and juices and coffee of Ecuador.

First time in Cuenca, so I wasn't sure what sort of place the Hotel Azul would be. Boy, was I in for a pleasant surprise! Nothing over the top, but all aspects of this cozy place impressed me. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a nice view of the city and strong/ consistent Wi-Fi. The location is great -- a short walk down to the river or quick stroll to the city center (although there are plenty of affordable and tasty restaurants within a stone's throw). But the best part of Hotel Azul was the staff, who went above and beyond to make sure my stay was memorable. Speaking Spanish is helpful but not vital, as everyone was patient with my limited language skills and they were more than comfortable assisting me in English. Coffee and breakfast are available in the morning, and they even have a convenient on-site laundry option that is amazingly affordable. I ended up extending my stay for a few days because I enjoyed it so much. Hotel Azul does everything right -- you won't be disappointed if you stay here during your time in Cuenca!

I had arrived early and was able to check in early as I had mentioned in my messages to the staff at the hotel. Everyone was very helpful. The room was very clean and comfortable. The area is very quiet at night so I had some great sleeps over my time there. The breakfast was very well done with unlimited coffee. I absolutely loved my stay there and will go again.
