Everyone here are really nice. They want to take care of the travelers. The buffet is huge and with so many options that any diet restrictions could be fine here. Everything is walking distance and all of the tours I had the end up really close to the hotel so to me the location was great

Best Accommodations in Cusco!
Wonderful choice! Hotel staff was friendly, helpful and very efficient. Great restaurant and bar with beautifully prepared food and drink options. Lovely park view across the street. Located in a very safe and walkable neighborhood near local shops and restaurants. I will definitely come back when visiting Cusco!

One of my best hotel stays with a tiny blot…
This is one of the best hotel stays I have even been into. The rooms are equipped with all the necessary facilities and amenities. The reception area is full of positive energy and always available for any help, be it calling a taxi for u, walking through your bill, exchanging currency… you name it and they have a solution. Super humble and hospitable! Lets jump into the location. Huge Artisan market right in front along with a small park in the median crossing. Basically, u don’t hav to go anywhere for your Peru gift shopping unless you want to. Its right there! To your left as u step out of hotel, you walk for 0.5 miles, and u have the famous Plaza De Armas… center of Cusco with all the top restaurants, shopping brands, museums, etc. Coming to food they have an in house restaurant called Mamaji… OMG… the buffet is super exhaustive… mix of local cuisines, American style breakfast… one of the best I have ever experienced in a hotel breakfast buffet! I wud recommend to give a tey to their dinner menu as well at least once. Coming to the in house tour desk they have. Not the best I would say… Only reason I went thru them was bcoz it was in house. The price was little bit on the higher side also they did few false commitments which I didn’t like. Management should take a look at this side I would say.

It was super easy to get to and if you contact the hotel in advance they have a shuttle to and from the airport. The breakfast was fantastic and the walk to the historic center was close. A lot of restaurants around the hotel within walking distance.

Great stay
Our stay was excellent. The hotel was in a great location and room was clean and comfortable. The service was excellent. The only recommendation I have is giving the option of early check in. During my whole 3 weeks in Peru this was the only hotel that didn’t have early check in or have room available when we arrived. I had even emailed hotel ahead of time but was told it was based on availability. We arrived in Cusco around 5:30 am and had to wait at least 5 hours for a room. We were exhausted after traveling for 20 hours as well as being sick. We had to pay to eat at breakfast buffet while waiting. It was expensive and I barely ate anything but it had a lot of options and it was very good. We were obviously upset from waiting and front desk staff were professional but really couldn’t do much to facilitate things. Besides that hiccup, the entire stay was excellent.
