Stayed here twice before and after a trek. Very social, felt very safe and was staffed overnight, lots of spaces inside to sit and chill or work. Everywhere was kept clean and I appreciated little things like the railings to dry clothes or towels, the water refills and free coca tea, and that I could store my luggage securely whilst trekking. Staff all very friendly and helpful.

Great location and staff is incredibly helpful and accommodating. They make every detail of your travel stress free. I am a more quiet traveler and I will say that the clientele of this hostel tend to be more extraverted.

Great place to stay. They switched our rooms a few times which was a pain but fine regardless. The showers don’t have much water pressure and often are cold but that’s expected! The bar is fun and the atmosphere is lovely. Food is good, walking distance to everything.

My experience at Kokopalli Hostel in Cusco was truly delightful. The hostel offered excellent amenities and a fantastic location. I want to give a special mention to Christian, the bartender and manager, for going the extra mile to make not only me but also other guests feel right at home every single day. Gracias! Ps. He also makes delicious Pico sours.

Great place to meet people, bartenders are awesome especially Christian Franco. Showers need to be cleaned more often and maybe provide people with mats to stand on because the bathrooms have water all over the floors. Had a power outage and water cut off twice

Really Helpful
As a solo traveller it was very very easy to make friends here! Kokopelli was a blast! Its in a great location very easy to walk around cusco from there and all the tours know where it is so pick up and drop off was easy as well! The hostel is always relatively busy and full. The staff was extremely helpful when I came back from my trek with altitude sickness they gave me oxygen for free and helped me call a doctor which came to the hostel to check on me. Overall great stay and the free breakfast was also nice!
