Una joya en todos los sentidos!
Que perduren para siempre alojamientos independientes y con historia como esté. Desde el segundo uno nos hicieron sentir como en casa. La ubicación es perfecta y más si viajan con vehículo propio como era nuestro caso, dispone de un jardín amplio e imponente. El personal es muy experimentado, educado, y servicial. Un lugar icónico y peculiar que nos llevamos en nuestros corazones.

Horrible. Worst place is ever been in 30 years
To start the pros: the place is quaint and charming “looking.” Ya know when James Bond has to hide away in a crap hostel after the bad guys beat him? This looks like that crap hostel. The old man receptionists all wear red coats as if proud. Then: Room smelled of bathroom due to people putting in you know in the waste bin. Yes! That smell! Built up from numerous people! The room had not been aerated. The area was out of central area, and felt uncomfortable/not safe, with skate park kids hanging around. There was no hot water. I asked, and the old man said something about the mountains and patience and maybe 3 days. Was there not hot water heater and were they relying on volcanic thermal heating? Idk. Have no idea. No 3G,4G, LTE any cell service. WiFI didn’t work. I left angry because the place felt like a prison. I needed to book flights and hotels for my next leg of trip. I couldn’t. No internet! I put my keys on the front counter and told them this is not a hotel, and left. No one spoke English, and I couldn’t use google translate because no internet. I had to take my 50 lbs of luggage and haul for 1-2 kms to get any internet connection. I couldn’t even call in an Uber. Yeah. If you want to tolerate the smell of human waste, for the quaint charm, go right ahead. For me, basics are Wifi, hot water and sleep. It failed in all. If any of the 3, I wouldn’t be so harsh. I actually feel bad rating so badly. But it was absurd in 2022.

The hotel was clean and comfortable, though the property is definitely older. The location was excellent. The staff didn’t speak much English speaking, but were extremely friendly and extremely helpful with everything. The grounds were beautiful! Breakfast was included and excellent! We had to leave early to catch a bus to Tacna and when we arrived for breakfast at 6am and we really appreciated that the staff had a hot breakfast ready for my family. Definitely recommend this hotel!

Wonderful Stay Again
Thank you once again Ursula and Herman. This is my second visit and cannot recommend Las Mercedes enough. Ursula and Herman are so kind and welcoming and remembered me by name. You can come and go as you please. The building and rooms are clean, hot water throughout the day and night. Tasty breakfast, 10 minute walk to main square, supermarket 5 minutes away. No issues thank you again for a wonderful stay.

The location is an 8 minute walk from Plaza de Armas. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. We were able to check in a few hours early which was much appreciated. They staff allowed us to have breakfast half an hour early so we could catch our bus to Colca Canyon. The private room was acceptable for the price. The peeling paint in the bathroom ceiling was a bit concerning. I avoided showering in the bathroom.

Beautiful period house, wonderful stay.
Fantastic hotel, friendly owners who knew me by name. Lovely period house, my room was spacious with a very comfortable bed, my room overlooked the beautiful garden. Very hot shower and daily housekeeping. Breakfast was very tasty with homemade jam and marmalade. There is a big supermarket nearby and only 10 minutes walk into town. The area is very safe and clean. I have enjoyed my stay here and will return.

For the price and considering it is a hostel it was all that we needed. Being an old house, it has much character, and beautiful gardens. The people working there were friendly. It also offers protected parking which we were looking for.

Great service and very quiet in heart of Arequipa
Las Mercedes seems a little off the way but it's a very good establishment for travellers. Inexpensive and very comfortable. The bathroom is a little aged but the king size bed made up for it. Hotel staff were very helpful and even went to the trouble of making us a very early brekkie because of our 6:30 am checkout. Very good value for a family.
