Experience Cuenca: Timeless Charm Meets Contemporary Energy in El Barranco
Built in a basin in the Andes Mountains, Socialtel Cuenca overlooks Río Tomebamba, an urban river that runs through the city.
Our colonial building is overflowing with Ecuadorian design, plus the bedrooms are full of local influences including cream wicker baskets, alpaca blankets and hand-dyed rugs.
Other features include our movie room, wellness area and restaurant called "The Terrace". Just a 5 minute walk from Socialtel you’ll find historical hotspots like the municipal Calderon Park, Museum of Cañari Identity, the Museum of Skeletons, and the Popular Art Museum.
Trek to Cajas National Park, swim in freshwater lakes, watch wild birds like the yellow fauna or rent a bike and tour Incapirca’s ruins. Don’t forget to check out the Incan man carved in the Mountain!
