Fodor's Expert Review Mansión Alcázar
Bolívar 12–55, at Tarqui, Cuenca, Azuay, 010150, Ecuador Fodor's Choice
Fluffy down comforters top beds—some of them canopied—in rooms with filmy curtains covering windows that look onto an indoor courtyard with a trickling fountain. A hot water bottle slipped under your covers warms your bed at night. Crystal chandeliers, antique furniture, and art give you the feeling of what life was like more than 100 years ago in this carefully preserved 1891 mansion two blocks from the central plaza. Most rooms have only showers instead of full baths. A couple of rooms have windows looking onto a lovely garden.
