It's one thing to get to visit buildings with a history, but to get to stay in one and dwell in the space is another. The staff made us feel welcome, and the company created spaces outside our room where we could relax and take in the history of the building. Parking is a struggle in the old city, but the public garage is available on the way up the hill, and an elevator takes you up to the level of the hotel. Breakfast is awesome.

Excellent location! Walking distance to most iconic sites in Cuenca... Public parking just next to the building with entrance 8 floors down but hotel provides accurate directions... Upon parking, the lift takes you right to one side of the Seminario building with 1 block walking using pedestrian street!

Excellent old property with modern rooms. As a seminary it’s quiet and traditional in many places. Tranquility is a summary. Brilliant location, in centre of old town but tucked away

The hotel was very historic. The public areas kept much of their character. The room was spartan in keeping with the history of the building as an old seminary. If you are into watching TV, there isn't one in the room. The views were incredible! A beautiful place

I was happy with the location of this hotel and the staff were super helpful, the breakfast was excellent, but in our room which was the suite the windows were a little small and on a warm day they would not stay open they kept closing by themselves. My wife wasn't happy that there was no conditioner which she was expecting. The furniture was rather old and outdated. I probably would stay there again though I wouldn't spend the extra money on The Suite

This is a very unique property located right in the entrance of the old town. It is extremely convenient for sightseeing abd dining. The staff is very friendly and helpful One thibg unique about this property which i am not familiar with is that it does not have a TV or fridge in the room. It is not a problem for us but it is different

Great location in the older part of Cuenca. Easy access to castle, Cathedral, and hanging house views. A little tricky in getting there if you are driving, as there is a one lane section regulated by a signal just prior to hotel. Suggest calling first and getting guidance to parking garage below the Monastery, and taking the elevator up to the hotel.

La hospedería ciertamente no es un hotel. Nuestra habitación estaba limpia pero se percibía un olor a drenaje de vez en cuando, así que había que tener la habitación ventilada. El desayuno podría ser mejor, en especial el café. Una mañana había una máquina para el café y la leche caliente. La mañana siguiente desaparecieron. Es difícil encontrar desayuno por la mañana en los alrededores, así que no hay muchas opciones. La hospedería se encuentra en la zona de la catedral, pero hay que caminar mucho para bajar a la parte moderna de Cuenca. Muchas cuestas. Esto es muy para tener en cuenta si se tiene movilidad limitada.
