Welcome Cusco Hostel

Cuzco

Nice simple quiet hostel..you gat a good night's sleep..breakfast is good and the hot water is always works..the family are very helpful and give information on the area and tours and transport. I stayed 2 weeks and would stay again.great value for money. 

Lovely place to stay ..family run hostel

Absurd - I arrived in Cusco in the afternoon and, after clambering up the steep steps to this place, waited AN HOUR ringing the doorbell (which I don't think works) and banging on the door. No one came. I was unable to check in and was left wandering the streets of Cusco at night and alone to find a new hostel.

I've had times where I showed up at a hostel and had to wait around a little, and I also don't mind wandering around or climbing steps. In general I think I'm pretty tolerant of all of that. But to simply be completely absent without any forewarning is just ridiculous.

DON'T STAY HERE

The staff here are very helpful and friendly, and there's Max the cat who is also there to greet you every day! Breakfast is included and is much better than a lot of other hotels' offerings. You get the usual bread and jam, with tea and coffee, but they also had eggs and crepes. The location is close to everything, but far enough way that it is quiet. The walk is all uphill or stairs, but it gives a nice view of the city below. We had a private bathroom in our room, but the shower only sometimes had hot water, so we just used the shared bathroom to shower which always had hot water and was always clean. My one complaint is that our room was quite cold, so at night we usually slept with some extra clothes on.

Good Budget-Concious Option

We stayed for 1 night in their four bedroom. Room is spacious and we get to have our own bed instead of usual bunkbed. Staff is great. Great communal space with excellent view of san blas area. Minus one star for the bathrooms. While there's one each floor. Hot shower is only available on the second floor during our stay. Otherwise, great budget hostel. 

Charming hotel

The welcome Cusco Hostal was completely unknown to us before we arrived. The owner asked us at the bus terminal at 6AM in the morning, if we need a Hostal, double room with private shower for 50 PEN. It seemed to be a bad Hostal, but it turned out, that the owner is really nice und helpful and the hostal really cute.
The owner organised by a taxi to the hostal, made breakfast and gave us a lot of useful tips about the city and machu Picchu.
The breakfast is nice and included in the price, everthing is clean and you are allowed to use the kitchen us well. It feels like living in a family with the option of getting your private time and room.
The owner took care about our luggage for three days while we were traveling to machu Picchu.

The hostal is like 10 mins from the city center uphill. However it's doable for someone who is not trained. After two weeks in the Anden it feels really easy.

All together: a nice little and silent Hostal surrounded by wonderful restaurant in san blast. Worth it to stay here.

Cute little Hostal slidly apart from the mainstream

This is a quiet hotel located on a mountain about a 10-15 minutes walk from Cusco's center plaza. It's mostly steep stairs up to the hotel from the center so if you struggle climbing uphill, don't book this hotel. Not many people stay here so if you want to meet other travelers (which I highly recommend, especially in Cusco), this isn't the hotel for you. The staff don't speak any English, but are very kind and do their best to accommodate you. The rooms are okay. The beds are not comfortable and the rooms need updating. The rooms are freezing at night and the heater provided didn't work, but they give you 2-3 heavy blankets. Don't count on hot showers. You need to ask for breakfast and it's the standard Peruvian breakfast - coffee/tea, bread, spread, eggs, fruit, and a fruit juice. Wifi is okay. It's a cheap hotel so you get what you pay for.

Overall, I think this hotel is okay for short stays and couples who want quiet nights. As a solo traveler, I would pick a hostel closer to the center.
