Casa Alonso at Mansión Alcázar

Cuenca


Mansión Alcazar's inviting restaurant, backing onto its beautiful internal garden, maintains the same lofty standards that the hotel does: ornately furnished and with quality service. Dinner could be sea bass in a crust of green plantain, braised duck leg or salmon in bourbon sauce. Whatever it is, it will be delicious.
