• Verónica (10/5): Acogedor y excelente servicio - El desayuno es delicioso, la atención y el lugar es como llegar a casa de un familiar. La ubicación es perfecta para la zona del estadio, hay muchas cosas cerca y en el peor de los casos, es fácil y poco costoso llegar con taxi (por ejmplo al centro histórico) quizás lo único es que no hay algún servicio de app de televisión más que youtube (pero como no tuve casi nada de tiempo para mirar televisión esto no fue importante)

• Don (9/5): Superb -
• Claudia (10/5): Lovely villa, can't wait to visit again. - The staff was amazing, very helpful & attentive! We traveled with our medium size dog and there were lovely parks around the hotel for her to enjoy. Breakfast was great! good endless coffee which was perfect for the chilly Cuenca mornings.
• Eduardo (10/5): Exceptional -
• Roberta (9/5): Superb -
• Jenice (10/5): It was wonderful as always for 8 nights. - We have been staying at Villa Emilia for many years now. The place is super clean. They do provide daily room service with towels and make up the beds. We like their breakfast. The staff is super helpful always. On site parking was a plus.it always feels like a home away from home because it’s a small hosteria.. It’s walking distance to great restaurants, a super maxi, and a small mall. we refer them to our friends all the time. We stayed for eight nights this last time due to appointments. I’ve been here in Ecuador for 15 years now.
• Arsen (10/5): Exceptional -
• Parke (10/5): Wonderful and caring staff, perfect location in a beautiful city. - I feel like I made new friends even though I was only there for 9 days! The location in El Vergel was very convenient to walk to different parts of Cuenca. I would highly recommend this establishment! Everything was so perfect and amazing!
• Adriana (9/5): Superb -
• William (10/5): Enjoyed my stay, staff are very friendly and helpful. - Very good breakfast and excellent location, close to restaurants and food markets.
• Dave (9/5): Would definitely return - The building is utterly beautiful inside: mahogany wood, an onyx spiral staircase! The owner sometimes man's The front desk himself. Everyone was very helpful, and the location is excellent. Breakfast options are limited, as with most included breakfasts. The garden needs more upkeep to be welcoming.
• Robert (9/5): Great value for money. I will be back. - As described. Great hostal. Good breakfast. Nothing. All good.
• Roxana (10/5): Exceptional - The room was very big and clean. The beds extremely comfortable. Bathroom very well equipped. Delicious breakfast and very friendly staff.
• Katherine (10/5): Exceptional - The Main reason we chose this property was because they allowed our boxer. I understand how allowing dogs in a hostel can be hard but I could find anyone to take care of our dog away. The Staff is excellent. The breakfast is very delicious and the rooms are very professional
• Senora (8/5): I especially like the staff. They're very helpful and amiable. - THE LOCATION pipes from the flushing of the toilet made a sharp loud noise
• Shufan (10/5): Exceptional - everything none
• Ismael (10/5): Exceptional -
• Monika (10/5): Very nice - Beautiful room Nice staff Good breakfast Very clean
• Luis (9/5): Superb - Large room and friendly staff. The kitchen noise woke up my girlfriend very early in the morning (before 7am)
• Dante (9/5): Superb -
• Patricia (8/5): Excellent location and delicious breakfast - The location a few blocks from stores, restaurants, Parque Madre, the Tomebamba River, and the bridge to Centro Historico was great! The bed was very comfortable with great pillows and bedding. My room only had a small high window so not a lot of natural light but good lighting in the room. The Internet worked well. The bathroom had a good hot shower. The free coffee, tea, and water in the lobby were appreciated. I had requested a fan (I find it helps to muffle noises in these historic properties) and the staff had one available for me. Excellent service from all hotel personnel I interacted with. The breakfast was above and beyond expectations - the small menu provided several choices. It was the best I have had in Ecuador so far! The lobby area was furnished well with sofas and chairs. A couple of downsides - not enough visible plugs for those of us traveling with multiple devices (I used bathroom plugs) and no real working desk area. Lack of natural light. No minifridge for snacks and leftovers. A little pricey.
• Andrea (8/5): Very good -
• Carlos (8/5): Very good - It was clean in all areas The breakfast could be a better breakfast with more options and at least everything that they have on on their menu to be available
• Andrea (10/5): The room was tastefully furnished, high quality bedding, wonderful full service breakfast. The name is misleading, as th -
• Senora (10/5): The staff was polite and helpful. It was very clean. The breakfast was good. Jacuzzi comfortable. - I felt save. Most of the time it was quiet. The hostel is beautiful. I wish they had more channels in English or subtitles in English. The water to the jacuzzi could be hotter.
• Rogério (9/5): Superb - Very comfortable.
• David (6/5): Pleasant - room size really comfortable no heat, the wood floor, same breakfast every day.
• Garry (10/5): Highly recommended, great location, quiet, friendly, Secure. - The location is perfect, close enough to the main centre for a lovely walk, yet far enough to be nice and quiet. Staff are beyond helpful, english is spoken too. Big supermarket nearby as well as lots of food options. Place was clean, fresh towels everyday and a nice secure parking. We parked 2 Motorcycles securely locked behind gates. Breakfast was great, really can't speak highly enough of this place. Do I need to mention Hot showers! Nothing.
• Holly (10/5): Great hotel! - They were very accommodating the rooms were comfortable they offered water 24/7 it was a delight It wasn't close to the center of Cuenca
• Alberto (9/5): Superb -
• Linda (10/5): I’ll be staying at this place again! - A lovely, secure place within walking distance of the Historic Center. The staff was wonderful! Nothing. It was great!
• Mark (10/5): Exceptional -
• José (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ecuadorexpat (10/5): Exceptional -
• Abdul (10/5): Great location, price, great staff - Friendly staff, nice breakfast. Great location. Bed not very comfy.
• Betty (9/5): All in all, it was a lovely stay in a beautiful hotel and the staff were most accommodating and quick to satisfy any and - They call themselves a hostel, however this is a luxury hotel. The common areas are impressive with spiral marble staircase, a comfortable executive style sitting room whereby guests could have use of a computer, as well as a fully stocked kitchen for those who would like to cook. The room was lovely with a comfortable bed and private bathroom. I was provided with a room on the third floor which meant that the window was five feet above my head, at the peak of the ceiling. It provided only light and sounds from the traffic on the street below.
• Yolanda (10/5): Awesome - Everything was great, the staff was friendly, helpful and really welcoming. Delicious breakfast.
• Edgar (10/5): Exceptional -
• I-li (10/5): The cost benefit relation of Villa Emilia cannot be beat. Our family would definitely return to Villa Emilia when we vi - Villa Emilia Hostal is more like a small boutique hotel than the usual hostel. It has private bathrooms, large clean rooms, and has parking spaces on its premises. Breakfast was included and was excellent. The location was centric and close to many stores. I think that there is also a shopping center close by (not sure, but definitely a Supermaxi a few blocks away). Everything was good.
• Marcos (10/5): - Todo muy bien
• Charles M (2/5): - Vila Emilia is a quaint boutique hotel. On my last stay;: - I was made to wait 40 minutes for the eggs for breakfast. - They wouldn't let me leave until they inspected my room as if I was some type of criminal (shame on them). - They have no control of shower water temperature. When everyone is taking a shower in the morning, the water can jump from literally scalding hot to freezing cold in a single minute. I have complained about this detail during each of my two stays here.
