Bad Experience

When we got in to the Hotel, the lady in the front told us that they never got an confirmation of ORBITZ which seems really weird because I guess everything is automated. So she gave us an option to stay in two triple rooms the night we arrived but we were getting relocated to another hotel nearby. So we went through the process of checking out the next day and checkin in to the other hotel. Hotel was two blocks distance from San Juan so it wasn´t that hard, but the hotel itself (Hotel Inca Real) was one of the worst hotels I´ve stayed, the floor cracks every time you step, theres a bell in the main entrance so you can hear every ring from your room, soundproofing is non existent at all and the buffet breakfast is extremely limited and I believe that there is a big price gap between the two hotels. I trully didnt like what happened and I´m not sure if it was a problem of ORBITZ or San Juan Hotel staff, but it was a non pleasant experience which I don´t want to repeat in my life.

1st trip to the mountains

The hotel was very nice. The staff (esp. Claudia, Paola , and Karina) was outstanding and very friendly. The staff was helpful, caring about our well being and followed up on every request we made. They found a english speaking driver, for us, that was very good. We have nothing bad to say about the hotel, and our stay. An absolute 5/5.

Nice stay in central area -- lot w/in walking dist

Enjoyed very much. Good service, beautiful interior. Down side: Parking is in a locked lot two blocks away. OK if you're taking taxis, but inconvenient if you're driving. No A/C or heat, but it wasn't a problem for us in late May.

Great stay in Cuenca at San Juan Hotel

We were so pleased with our stay at San Juan Hotel. The staff was very kind and helpful. We speak very little Spanish and there was always someone available who spoke English. The hotel is beautiful old style Spanish with a really lovely courtyard. We requested a room with a window that opened to the outside courtyard. So glad we did as not all of the rooms have an outside window. Room and bathroom were very spacious and very clean. The hotel is centrally located, within 2-3 blocks of several markets, the Cathedral, shops, cafes, etc.
