"A budget hotel near the Plaza de Armes. The staff were pleasant and friendly. Decent free breakfast. Reasonably quiet. Showers were cool, not sure if we were doing something wrong as we didn’t check with the staff. Overall if your standards are ok with just the basics for a low price then this is good value for your $."

Top Cusco Hotel Reviews

Ureta Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel sent someone to pick us up from the airport even though our flight was an hour and 15 minutes late and they let us check in early. It is these details that make this a great choice for hotel when staying in Cusco. It is also only a 10-15 minute walk to the Plaza de Armas."

Antigua Casona San Blas

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great hotel. The breakfast was great with good variety and even made to order menu. The dinner at their restaurant was also delicious (not included but worth going). Staff was very helpful and friendly my only complaint would be the road there is very narrow and one way so can be stressful getting in and out of a taxi, but still worth the stay. "

Palacio del Inka, A Luxury Collection Hotel by Marriott

10/10 Excellent

"A beautiful hotel in a prime location, near shopping and dining. The staff here is the best I have ever encountered with. Everyone was so kind and helpful. I used it as a base for many hiking excursions so I didn’t get to utilize all the amenities they have . Only about a 20 minute ride to airport "
