Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No on-site parking — The property does not list parking among its amenities, which may be a consideration for guests arriving by car in central Cusco.
  • Pets are not allowed — The policy clearly states that pets are not permitted, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Limited room categories — With only five room types and 20 rooms, availability can be tight, especially for larger groups or those seeking more upscale options.
  • Rooms may be simple for some tastes — While comfortable, rooms are described as straightforward – parquet floors, basic furniture, and no air conditioning listed, which may not suit everyone.

“Breakfast was free, the views and location were magnificent – right next to the old town, the main square, and main streets. Quiet despite being in the heart of the city, with plenty of restaurants, pharmacies, and local shops around. I had a king room with a fireplace and storage, a large bed, and free Wi-Fi.”
