Beautiful marble foyer with ceramic artwork. The staff was friendly and accomidating. Both our room and the restaurant had a wonderful view of the river, and our beds were really comfortable. It was a convenient walk to restaurants and shopping.

My visiting friend decided to rent a room at the Hotel Crespo so we could be picked up locally. She paid about $130 for a Saturday night. I'm pretty sure we got one of the only rooms with a... More

This hotel was a treat. It is classic older hotel, but they keep it very clean and nice. The staff was very nice and easy to work with. The hotel was safe and had beautiful views of a river. The food was ok, but not great. The city of Cuenca is a place you don't want to miss if you... More

The hotel is in a good position and has a good breakfast. The room was spacious, lots of hot water and internet was provided free. The hotel backed onto the Tomebamba... More

I'm 67 with over 40 years of travel writing experience of which this was the worst. The Crespo lost my prepaid 1800hotels reservations and even tho I showed them the voucher, my credit card debit and their web page on 1800hotels, they insisted they never heard of them OR me and I was "pulling a fast one and must remain...
