Amazing hostel with excellent facilities, comfy beds, fun activities and super friendly staff. Pape, at the bar, was especially great at creating an atmosphere (getting people to try "Pariwana bombs"). It was quiet enough in the rooms downstairs to sleep despite the music which was cut off promptly at 1am regardless (earplugs are provided). All the staff were super helpful and friendly. You could buy anything from shampoo to M&Ms to vapes at the front desk which was useful. The laundry service was quick and well-priced. Out of all the activities, my brother and I especially loved the salsa class and flip cup tournament. It was super easy to meet people but the party vibe didn't feel overbearing - more friendly and easygoing. I highly recommend!!

One of the best hotels I have stayed at. The owners Romulo and Helga go out of their way to make your stay comfortable. The property is a bit far from Cusco city centre, but in the middle of an Inca archeological park where there are a lot of spots to explore in peace. Romulo often takes the guests out on tours of these sites, way past forbidden signs so that you have a truly unique experience which no tour agency in Cusco can offer. He has worked in tourism for a long time so is super knowledgable about the surrounding areas as well. They also have 2 beautiful dogs and a cat and a lovely little garden.

All hostels in Cusco

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Great service, super welcoming, nice breakfast and the perfect budget hostel. Its surrounded by cheap food options and a 5 min walk from the main plaza. Cheap and cheerful. Kevin is really helpful with suggestions and recommendations. Not a party hostel, so be aware, but still had fun and a few nights out with the staff and guests!
