Charming
Posada Hotel in an 18th Century Building in Cuenca, Castilla-la Mancha,
Spain
 |
The Posada
de San José, which was built during the XVlll century, is situated
in heart of the historic quarter of Cuenca. The building retains its past
monastic characteristics for it was the San José Choir School which
echoed to the voices of boys rehearsing masses to be sung in the nearby
cathedral.
Antonio
and Jennifer Cortinas re-opened the Posada in 1983, since when, with sensitivity,
they are restoring and refurbishing it, complementing its past architectural
character with contemporary standards of hotel comfort so that guests are
offered friendly hospitality and local culture throughout their stay. |
| Visitors
will be charmed by this unique Posada and appreciate the harmony of decoration
and its superb situation overlooking the Huecar River Gorge.
Breathtaking
views can be enjoyed when taking deliciously home-cooked evening meals
or continental-style buffet breakfasts. The remarkable position of the
hotel offers a dramatic panorama of sunlight, shadows and breathtaking
scenery.
All
is tranquility and it is little wonder that this intriguing, old quarter
of Cuenca was designated a World Heritage Site in 1996; the Posada de San
José so perfectly belongs within it!

In the
charming dining room a wide variety of home-made tapas and local dishes,
accompanied by excellent regional wines, are available.
Weather
permitting, meals can be served on the terrace. Afternoons and evenings,
we offer a wide range of home made "tapas" and "raciones" to our guests
so they can try the typical meals from Cuenca: "morteruelo, pisto, gazpacho
pastor, ajo arriero, quesos manchegos..." All that accompanied by the excellent
wines of the region.
