The hotel is located only one block from the main plaza in Cuenca which is a prime location. The apartments are wonderful; so much nicer than staying in just a hotel room. Security is good, and the staff friendly and helpful.

I initially booked a one month stay at Gran Colombia Suites through Expedia. Once I arrived, I knew that I had to extend my stay! The second floor apartment is beautifully furnished, with generous natural light. Double pane windows ensure no sound transfer from the street below. The reception, housekeeping, and security staff are genuinely welcoming and consistently accommodating. And the location is excellent: 1 block from Parque Calderon, in the heart of the historic center.

Great location
I stayed in the panoramic apartment with amazing views of old town Cuenca. Great location. One block to Parque Calderon. Tia store across the street and bakery downstairs. Very cozy and clean unit. I’ll definitely stay here again. All the staff was lovely.

Best place to stay in Cuenca!
Our stay at Gran Colombia was excellent. The suite was modern, comfortable, and conveniently located in El Centro. The staff was friendly, knowledgable, and most important, always willing to help with any of our needs. We would highly recommend this hotel!

Gorgeous place in the heart of Cuenca but
Staff are wonderful, great location, beautiful place. Be aware however that rooms with an outside or city view can be quite noisy! suite number three is above shops which turn their music up, and the street noise is too much to tolerate if you are at all sensitive to noise. Inside rooms only have frosted windows to the court yard so no outside views but are much quieter.
