Description and location

Parador de Cuenca - The former convent of San Pablo occupies a privileged position in the Hoz del Huécar gorge, a compendium of sheer walls and luxuriant vegetation on the outskirts of Cuenca, next to the famos Casas Colgadas (Suspended Houses).

The glazed cloister, and the former chapel, now an inviting cafe, complement an interior which combines traditional elements with more contemporary details such as wicker, leather and upholstery. The bedrooms are all ensuite and very comfortable.  Some offer fine views of the Casas Colgadas.

The hotel also offers its guests a lounge bar and a wonderful dining room decorated with exquisite taste. Here one may enjoy well-seasoned dishes featuring traditional cooking of Cuenca, such as 'morteruelo' (rich game-animal paté made with olive oil and spices ), 'pisto con lomo de orza' (tomato-based ratatouille with marinated loin), roasts and 'alajú' (dessert made from almonds, walnuts and honey).
