    The best part about my stay in Arequipa was the amazing service provided by the staff. They were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make sure I had a comfortable stay. Another great thing about the hotel was its central location. It was just a short walk from the main plaza and surrounded by plenty of restaurants and shops. And let's not forget about the breathtaking views! The hotel had stunning views of the mountains, which made for a truly memorable experience.

    The extra charge for eggs during breakfast. I feel like for the price I paid for the room, eggs should have been included in the breakfast.

    The hotel is in a central location, just a few blocks away from the Plaza de Armas, making it convenient for exploring the old city. The rooms offer excellent views, with some even having a small balcony to enjoy the surroundings. The staff at this hotel are friendly and helpful, always willing to provide advice on activities and places to visit. The breakfast provided is enjoyable, with a good view of the surrounding volcanoes.

    We didn't encounter any issues during our stay.

    Really close to the main square, making it convenient for exploring the city. The hotel is located right on the main bus line, making it easy to access other parts of the city. The rooms offer amazing views of the volcanic mountains, providing a unique and picturesque experience. The hotel staff provides excellent service and attention to detail, ensuring that guests have a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

    Great location in the historical center, walking distance to Plaza de Armas and Monasterio de Santa Catalina. Awesome view of El Misti volcano. Excellent Wi-Fi compared to other hostels in Peru. Friendly and helpful staff. Enjoyed the relaxing breakfast on the rooftop terrace with stunning volcano views.

    I had a lovely stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, just a short walk from the city center. The staff were friendly and helpful, making me feel welcomed from the moment I arrived. The rooms were spacious and bright, and I was lucky to have a balcony with chairs where I could relax. The breakfast on the roof terrace was a highlight, with stunning views of the city. The laundry service was also efficient, making my stay even more convenient. I would highly recommend this hotel for its cleanliness, friendly staff, and great value for money.

    The hotel is conveniently located in the center of the old city, just a short walk from the main plaza and the Mercado San Camilo market. The rooms have a good view of the volcano and the surrounding mountains, providing a fantastic backdrop. The breakfast on the terrace offers a great view of the volcano and the surrounding volcanoes. The option of scrambled eggs or omelette is a nice touch.

    No areas for improvement, everything was satisfactory.

    Located near Arequipa old town, this budget accommodation is ideal for travelers interested in a city center stay or exploring Colca Canyon hiking trails. The rooms are basic but spacious and clean, and the bathroom comes with a reliable shower and hot water supply. Guests praise the staff for being helpful, communicative, and giving them an early check-in upon arrival. Enjoy a small but delicious breakfast on the panoramic terrace where you can take in beautiful views of Misty mountain in the background.

    The free pick-up service from the bus terminal may not be reliable, and guests suggest calling the hotel to confirm arrangements beforehand.

    During our stay at this charming hotel, we were amazed by the beautiful colonial mansion with its stunning rooftop. The historical center location was convenient and added to the overall charm of the place. The homemade breakfast served on the rooftop was delicious and a perfect start to the day. We would highly recommend staying here for a memorable experience.

    Great location close to the main square with nice views from the terrace, helpful and friendly staff, clean and comfortable room with hot water. They offer free drinkable water and coca tea all day long. Breakfast on the terrace was good with typical local dishes.

    Nothing not too like.

    Despite some issues, we had a decent Christmas stay. The location was fairly convenient, and we enjoyed the view from the rooftop terrace. The staff was also friendly and helpful when we needed assistance.

    Our room was not as clean as we had hoped. The bedding and towels were quite worn and could have been replaced.

    Stayed here for the weekend and loved it! The rooms were sparkling clean and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. The location was perfect – just a short walk from the center of town. The breakfast was delicious and included a variety of options to choose from. One of the best parts was the beautiful terrace where you could relax and take in the stunning views of the mountains. It was such a nice touch!

    That the walls were a bit thin and we could hear some noise from the street, but it wasn't too bad and didn't affect our stay too much. would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a comfortable, clean, and friendly stay at a great price.

    As young holiday goers, we loved the clean and comfortable rooms with extremely clean towels and spacious bathrooms. The beds were super comfortable. The staff at the hotel were friendly and helpful, assisting us with contacting the travel agent and bus company during a strike. The location of the hotel was great, allowing us to easily explore Arequipa.

    Felt very relaxed, no reason to complain.

    During my Christmas stay, I loved the fact that the hotel offered reliable hot water and comfortable beds. The location was great, being close to Plaça Armas and all the amazing restaurants. Additionally, the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, going above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay.

    While the rooms were functional, the beds were on the smaller side. Also, the breakfast terrace lacked a bit of variety in terms of food options.
