“Lovely stay”
We moved into a standard double room (Rm 202) for our second stay here and it was a good size. The bed is big and comfortable. The blanket is welcomed as it’s cold in the Andes! Breakfast is plentiful and good. The staff let us store our baggage for free until we returned from our Machu Picchu trip, which was very helpful.

“Worth the stay”
Lovely hotel. We’ve stayed here three times during our trip in Peru. The first time was in Rm 203, a superior double. It was spacious and comfortable. Fridge came stocked with some free drinks. Dressing gowns provided in this room too. Bed was big and comfy. It’s a bit cold, so the extra blanket was welcomed. Refillable water included too. Good location close to main square but far enough away to be quiet.

“Well appointed hotel with fabulous breakfast and great Reception staff. Fantastic value for money if you get a deal on”
- the prices seem to vary and we were lucky to get a great deal - Quiet location within short walk of main square - spacious room - great shower - staff at reception were always helpful and friendly - best breakfast we’ve had in Peru - includes eggs to order - I recommend the ham and cheese omelette (not al all greasy)

“Great location, friendly staff, early breakfast, and a quiet stay, although this time our room had no windows”
We returned to this hotel again because of its great location, friendly staff, early breakfast, and quiet atmosphere. This time we had a different room, which unfortunately had no windows, but overall it was still a comfortable stay.

“Great location, friendly staff, early breakfast, and a quiet, comfortable room”
Great location, friendly staff, and very good breakfasts starting from 5 a.m., which was perfect for early tours. The hotel was quiet — we couldn’t hear the train or the road. We were also able to leave our luggage for more than 24 hours while visiting Machu Picchu. It was quite cold outside, but the staff provided a heater that warmed the room well.

“Perfect accomodation in Cusco”
Excellent stay in Cusco, in a very nice and quiet area, close to the city center. Everything was great and the staff was really nice and helped us with everything we needed, even booking us taxis for going to/ from the airport/train station. The room was great and really clean.

“Excellent stay!”
Hosts were exceptional. The main square was a short walking distance- so the hotel was away from the noise but close enough to all places of interest. We were also fortunate enough to be staying here during inti raymi, so had an amazing experience. The hotel is also environmentally conscious :) Their Muna tea and coca tea helped us adjust to the altitude easily

“Memorable Cusco Stay”
The location was the best part. It was right in downtown Cusco while not right in the middle of it. The place had a sweet quaintnesses about it and rooms were traditional design with all the required comforts. The place was clean and their breakfast was perfect in every way. The staff and their smiling and helpful attitude were what actually made a difference. They were helpful all the way and made hot water to drink every time we needed it. Really sweet staff. Lastly, the value for money aspect was just perfect.
