Ten out of ten

What a fantastic hostel is this! Stayed for 8 days at the Flying Dog hostel and have been extremely impressed with the outstanding customer service. The staff is very hospitable, friendly and proactive. From the receptionists to the cleaners; everyone carries a huge smile to their work. It’s contagious and certainly unique (I have stayed at other hostels in Arequipa). Always willing to help out and think outside the box to find a suitable solution. Also, the staff has a great understanding of Arequipa’s history, cultural heritage and highlights. This has made me feel very welcome and appreciated. Muchos gracias amigos. You guys are rocking it! Warmly recommended to fellow travelers! 👌

Muchos gracias amigos!

Beyond affordable single room with ensuite bathroom for a hostel (98 Soules/$25 USD). Single room was spacious and on ground floor. Bit noisy during the day but at night pretty quiet which is all that matters. Was able to check in hours early which was a huge help to catch on sleep. Staff speaks good English. Wifi, at least for me, was better than most have said (perhaps because my room was on the ground floor). Originally had booked a hotel proper for about $50 USD a night but happy I changed to here instead!

A steal in Arequipa

We emailed in advance to ask for a quiet room and they kindly gave us one tucked out the way. Even though check in was 1pm,  we arrived at 6am on our bus, the hostel kindly fed us breakfast on arrival and let us in our room at 9am for some much needed rest. I strongly recommend this hostel if you are traveling through Arequipa for a few days as its well located yet peaceful and the staff were really helpful. Even doing our laundry and returning it the same day.

Great hostel

Stayed here for a couple of days while in Arequipa. Got here early in the morning with a bus from Ica, and the staff let us check in several hours early. 

We had a private room which was spacious and with an ensuite bathroom. The hostel itself is made up of beautiful Sillar buildings, in style with the rest of the Arequipa historical city centre. Everything you would want to see in the city centre is within walking distance, and the hostel is located such that it is easy to get in and out of the historical centre. 

They were very helpful with regards to booking taxis, finding a laundry service (which was just down the block), as well as finding a trip to Colca Canyon that suited our preferences. 

While we were in Colca they let us store our luggage at the hostel, and once we got back the staff helped us book a taxi and find bus tickets for our trip to Cuzco which we had waited to book due to a rumoured strike. The strike happened but ended early, and so with the help of the hostel staff we were able to catch our bus.

A couple of days in Arequipa well spent.

I stayed in a 6 person dorm and the room had 3 lower and 3 upper beds, and a locker for each, which was great!  

The breakfast was plentiful and allowed for unlimited coffee, cheese, ham, eggs, bread, and cereal  at standard Peruvian quality. 

There is a 24h reception and you can store your bags there when partaking in a trek. 

The only downfall is that the showers sometimes stop intermittently for a few seconds, but it's no big deal.



Dorms and breakfast!

I had a private room, dorms reportedly good.
Pleasant and helpful staff, good location. Would not recommend booking rafting via the hostel as I had a bad experience with the operator, but the hostel handled the issue without hassle.

Our room was based on the bottom floor which meant the window lead out onto the main road. The window itself wasn't very secure so the room didn't feel very safe. In comparison to the other private rooms we've stayed in this was a little run down for the price. The kitchen is also falling apart and isn't really usable. I wouldn't stay here again unfortunately, but the staff were very nice for our two night stay 

Hostel stay private room

This hostel is in a really good location, close to the plaza. However that also means it was very noisy, both outside and inside because of the hostel bar. The doors and stairs are very narrow to get luggage through so if you are traveling with a lot of luggage maybe look somewhere else. Breakfast was decent and hot water is spotty. However, they were very helpful when I got sick in the canyon and had to move reservations around. Love the animals living on the property, but they really need to take better care of the cats.

Good location but loud. 

Room was spacious, bed was comfortable and it was clean. Hot water didn’t last through my shower so I ended up having to rinse out conditioner in the cold water. Unfortunately room was just off the courtyard so we had to listen to people playing music until after 11pm which was only annoying because we had to get up very early for a bus. They let us store our main luggage when we went on a trip to colca canyon for 2 nights which was really helpful. The guy in the kitchen was really friendly, introduced me to the cats and offered me coffee even though we were leaving too early to enjoy the breakfast.
