Everything was perfect… the room, the patio, the view, and the proximity to everything. Loved everything about this property and would highly recommend.

The hotel is in a great location and nice and quirky. However I thought our room was going to have a mountain room, but whilst clean and comfortable it felt more like a dungeon. Room 25, as we went to sleep there was fairly loud music outside and we had no view whatsoever. The room was dated and in need of a refurb. We ate in the restaurant and the view was great and staff great too. I’d stay again but request a different room.

Dirty services, bad food, and terrible attention.

Terrible experience.
I went to dinner with my family; after having a reservation, we entered half an hour late and then waited an hour with only drinks.
The morteruelo was very bad, the lamb chops were 15 euros for 5 smelly bones, the tenderloin was sour and dry, and my children had to eat dinner when we got home.
When I search this page for places to eat, they usually do not disappoint, so I do not understand how there are such good reviews for a truly bad place.
The only good thing is the views; the service was bad, and when I complained on-site, they did not even consider an apology.
We were forgotten, poorly attended, and ended up paying 100 euros to go home for dinner.
The bathrooms were disgusting.

We stayed for one night at Posada de San José while travelling through Spain and overall had a very enjoyable stay. The hotel is full of charm and character and feels perfectly suited to the historic surroundings of Cuenca.
The location is excellent for exploring the old town, with restaurants, bars, viewpoints, and many of the main attractions all within easy walking distance. One of the highlights of our stay was having a room with a balcony overlooking the valley, bridge, and Parador, which gave the stay a really special atmosphere and fantastic views.
The room itself was fairly basic but clean, comfortable, and perfectly adequate for a one-night stopover. The bedding was comfortable and the hotel overall felt relaxed and authentic rather than overly modern. There were a few signs of wear and tear in places which will likely need attention over time, but nothing that negatively affected our stay.
Staff were friendly and welcoming throughout and check-in was simple and efficient. Like many historic hotels located in old town centres, access by car can feel a little tight and parking requires some planning, although this is part of staying somewhere with so much history and character rather than a criticism of the hotel itself.
Overall, we felt the hotel offered very good value for money and was an excellent base for exploring Cuenca. We would happily recommend it to anyone looking for a more traditional and atmospheric experience rather than a modern chain hotel.

Excellent location
