Staying at Hostal El Peregrino brought a lot of joy during my trip. The location is absolutely ideal—just steps from the Plaza de Armas, making it super easy to explore the city. I loved starting my mornings with the delicious breakfast that included fresh fruit, bread, and omelettes. The cleanliness of the rooms was impressive, with spotless bedding and hot showers that felt amazing after a long day of hiking. The staff were genuinely helpful. they arranged our airport transfer and even borrowed us a heater for some extra warmth. Only downside was the occasional noise from the street—sometimes it interrupted my sleep, but it’s understandable given the central spot. Also, the lack of elevator could be an issue for those with heavy luggage or mobility concerns. Overall, very enjoyable stay with great value.

Like, the location is super convenient—right by the Plaza! The staff was soooo friendly and helped us with everything, like, we definitely felt at home. The only bummer was it got a little noisy at night. Oh, and the hot showers were totally amazing after a long day out!

Friendly and helpful staff

Nothing beats the memorable family vibe, but it was noisy at night.

excellent proximity to Plaza de Armas, cozy reception area on second floor, affordable rates between $20 and $30 per night

The layout of rooms could use improvement, inward facing with no outside windows!!! An elevator would enhance convenience, especially for heavy luggage!!! Being charged for printing wasn't mentioned upfront!!!

fantastic hospitality from maruja and helpful staff make your stay special

Incredible personalized service, helped book Macchu Picchu tickets and greeted us with coca tea. Comfortable room near Plaza de Armas, and laundry service was a plus for our travel.

The location was perfect as it was centrally located, just a short walk to the main attractions. The staff provided exceptional service, especially when they assisted my husband when he fell ill. The breakfast was simple yet delicious, with quality offerings that set us up nicely for our adventures.

The absence of an elevator might pose challenges for those with mobility issues.

The shower could get a bit chilly (not fun after a long day! ). The staff were so helpful, bringing tea on arrival and storing our bags while we hiked. Breakfast was plentiful, with delicious fruit and bread.

We had a fantastic stay here! It's right by the Plaza de Armas, making it super convenient for us and our pets. Maruja, the owner, treated us like family, letting us drop off our heavy bags while we enjoyed the beautiful sights around Cusco.

My wife says that an elevator would’ve been nice for the family travels.

This place suits me perfectly. It has great wifi, luggage storage, and 24-hour reception. The staff helped me with a late departure during my first stay, and they even arranged contacts for my plans. I recommend it! I’m coming back for a weekend.

Had an awesome time with my friends at this spot! The location can't be beat, very close to the main square. We explored the Sacred Valley and enjoyed some local cuisine nearby. The rooms were clean, with hot showers, which was perfect after a long day of adventures. Staff were friendly, which made us feel at home!

Family with children should consider it

The place is right near the main square which made it super easy to explore everything. The staff were friendly and made us feel safe even with all the chaos outside

It wasn’t cheap but still acceptable for what you get.

I stayed in a Twin Room for 3 nights and the room was clean and cozy. The cleanliness impressed me and the hot shower was a nice touch after a long day walking around. Breakfast was a highlight, with fresh fruits and omelettes that kept me fueled. The only downside was the noise from the nearby nightclub. it made it hard to sleep some nights, but the comfy bed helped a bit.

the hotel arranged laundry service that was fast and reliable. it gets noisy at nigt.
