Stay here.

"Half a block from main plaza; the service is excellent and the breakfast was quite nice. Front desk was smiling and helpful the whole time. This is a small hotel with few amenities, but my stay was perfect in every regard. I’d stay here again with no reservations. "

5/5 Excellent

"I have stayed in 20+ hotels in Peru, including other Costa Del Sol locations. Their hotel in Arequipa is BY FAR the best hotel experience I have had, better than any hotel I’ve used in USA, as well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND staying here. Staff was FANTASTIC and went above and beyond to ensure that we had everything we needed and were comfortable. We will definitely be going back to Arequipa and I will not even consider staying anywhere else. This hotel is FANTASTIC. And the staff is the best part. A+++"
