Vaway Hotel

Vaway Hotel

8/10 Good
"es una excelente opción. Lo mejor de todo es su ubicación, ideal para moverse por la zona, y la atención del personal, que fue muy amable en todo momento. El desayuno también estuvo riquísimo y muy completo. El único defecto que encontré es que el baño no contaba con extractor ni ventilación para la evacuación de olores, lo cual resulta algo incómodo. De no ser por ese detalle, la experiencia habría sido perfecta. Aún así, lo recomiendo."

10/10 Excellent
"My wife and I enjoyed our stay at TRYP by Wyndham Cuenca Zahir. The room was immaculately clean and beautifully decorated, providing a cozy and welcoming atmosphere with espectacular panoramic view through cristal clear glass windows from the presidencial suite six floor. The bathroom was super large and beautifully decorated with brand new shower and white clean towels and bathroom amenities. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The breakfast buffet and dinner were delicious offering a variety of excellent food. The location was perfect, within walking distance from Centro Histórico, new and old cathedrals, parque Calderon, Ruinas de Pumapungo, Puente Roto, Barranco, Escalinatas, Río Tomebamba, Planetario, Turi and brand new Mall del Alto with outstanding panoramic view. I strongly recommend this hotel."

"The hotel feels like a real mansion with classic furnitures. Room was large and very clean. Location can’t be better, surrounded by so many restaurants and cafes, it’s hard to count. Definitely try Goza Restaurant/Bar, located 6 minutes from the hotel. STAFF: hands down staff is the biggest asset at the hotel, they are kind, professional and extremely knowledgeable. Big shoutouts go Adrian and specially Cristina. She was patient and reorganized my detailed itinerary to be more time efficient :)"
