Where to stay in Cuenca

Cuenca's old town is the best base if you want to be close to the markets and the city's famous hanging houses. Try the Parador de Cuenca for something special, or Hotel Leonor de Aquitania for a comfortable stay with great views of the gorge.

If you prefer something more central and walkable, look for options around Casco Antiguo, where you can reach most of the city's markets and sights on foot.
