Nice hotel in the center of the city

We had a very pleasant stay at Hotel Los Tambos Colonial in Arequipa. The hotel is perfectly located in the heart of the city, just a 5-minute walk from Plaza de Armas, making it an excellent base for exploring the historic center. The rooms are on the smaller side, but they are very clean and feature large, comfortable beds that ensured a good night’s sleep. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with any questions or requests. One of the highlights was the breakfast. Rather than a buffet, breakfast is made to order from an à la carte menu, allowing you to choose exactly what you would like each morning. On the days we had very early tours and activities, the hotel thoughtfully prepared breakfast bags for us to take along, which was greatly appreciated. We also appreciated the complimentary coffee, tea, and coca tea available at two stations throughout the hotel, as well as the drinking water stations, which were very convenient. Overall, a clean, comfortable, and well-located hotel with excellent service and thoughtful touches. We would happily stay here again when visiting Arequipa.

The property is very large. Breakfast was good. What we appreciated the most was that on the day of our departure, they gave us a packed breakfast with several food options inside. Clean sheets and towels! Beautiful location.

Beautiful hotel with lovely staff in a great location.

This is a beautiful colonial hotel in the heart of the stunning city of Arequipa. It’s a short walk away from the gorgeous Plaza de Armas and the pretty streets branching off from this lovely square. The hotel is very comfortable and provides a delicious breakfast. The staff are charming and friendly - in particular Fabricio on the front desk who always greeted us with a smile and asked about our day. Highly recommended.

Stylish colonial hotel with immaculate service

I stayed 8 nights and it felt like an elegant home. They even left an Easter egg for me. Management, reception and the breakfast ladies were incredible. This place is super clean, perfectly located, serves a fabulous breakfast and had fantastic showers.
