Jerusalén 606, Cercado, Areq 01 Arequipa, Peru – Great location - show map

“Great staff, very welcoming, nice property overall. Selina seems like more of an experience and a culture of belonging. I like that and will seek out more of their locations around the world. Nice job!”

“Very pretty outdoor. Clean room and bathroom. We got in around 7 A.M cheking not till 3 PM they held our bags for us, plus we got our room around 1 PM so it was convenient.”

“For a hostel with such nice amenities, it was surprising that the single bathroom shared between 10+ private rooms were dismal and often quite dirty with mud on the floors. Some of the staff were also a bit cold.”

“Staying at Selina is a special experience. It's located a bit our of the center, but offers a very quiet surrounding. The inner courtyard with swimming pool and bar is amazing. The bed is large and comfortable, and the room tastefully decorated. ”

“Beautiful grounds to relax and take pictures. Rooms are intelligently designed with USB ports by the beds and strong, hot showers. 2 for 1 cocktails at the bar all day Sunday!”

The price is a little high, the music gets annoying by the second day because they start playing it around 8/9am and put it off around 11pm (it depends of course where your room is, ours was nearby the pool/bar). But overall a worthy stay!
This Hostel is modern, comfortable and very clean (close to Hotel standard). The staff is really behind their tasks and try to make your visit as good as it can be. The bar and pool are nice and the different corners in the garden are an invitation to relax.

our room was facing the pool and was noisy - if you have to leave early the day after and want to be in bed early, expect not to sleep :( Bed bad very tiny, we are quite tall so not really comfy..
Awesome place to relax at the end of a packed day, great facilities and environment! Staff very helpful and nice too Highly recommend the yoga class, was awesome!!!

The kitchen could be more well equipped! Also there is no control, the fridges were full with belongings but probably the owners were not even in the hostel, a lot of things were rotten.
Selina Arequipa is definitely the one with the best outdoor area we stayed in (we stayed also in Selina Lima, Cusco and La Paz). The room and private bathroom were very big and we had an amazing view to the pool. The location is not super central but in 10 minutes walking you’re in Plaza de Armas, and it is in a safe place. We really enjoyed our stay and the staff was amazing! We arrived at 6am from Cusco and the check in was only at 3pm but our room was already available which was perfect for us!!

“Hotel needs to be more friendly and accomodating to thier guests, information about programs/service”

Hotel caters to outside guests more than guests staying within hotel. Outside guests, drunks using staying guests bathrooms all night. Expensive drinks, not quality or variety, coctails etc. Private room lack of signage, people kept trying to open our door, thinking its the washroom. Did not clean the shared bathroom, nor our room for two night we stayed. Bad music, loud No phone in bedroom, no tv, no clock.
Shared kitchen, flowers and grounds keeping. Outdoor swings, beds Beds, sheets

“Not valuable for the price”

My room was terrible (we had a couple room). The walls were so thin so you could hear everything from the next room. Also the shared bathroom was dirty. Hot water was not working well and the door was always making a terrible noise while closing. That made me and my boyfriend wake up every night and morning. It is an relative expensive hotel for the area and not valuable for the room quality.

Bathroom was a but dirty in our room, and not cleaned very well. Some staff weren't super friendly. Food was ok.
Nice pool area, but needs more lounges for amount of guests that can stay. Wifi is good throughout property. A bit far from the main square, but I didn't mind the walk. Beds were comfortable and private with curtains.

There's one guy at the reception who can't give you any useful information. Seems like he doesn't like his job.

“Lovely place to relax”
- • Leisure trip

There was only 1 shower per dorm room so it was a little bit of a wait some time. The staff was not very engaging, and the social events posted didn't actually happen most of the time.
There are so many great places to hang out. The kitchen was quite well stocked and cleaned often. The beds are very comfortable and it is nice to have privacy curtains. There is a locker for personal items in the bed area but there is not a locker for the full backpack.

Very small bathroom. A bit of a walk to the main plaza. Slightly unusual events taking place in communal areas (children's clown / school drama award)
Pool, bar, nice communal seating areas. Comfy bed.

“Private rooms not worth it but bunk bed rooms very nice”
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 2 nights

The shared shower at the private room is or extremely hot or super cold with about 5 seconds in between. Impossible to take a decent shower here. The shared bunkbed rooms have way better showers. Tried working at the coworking space but there's one extremely noisy employee shouting and singing all day long even though the rules say to be quiet in there. I paid 6 dollars for a noisy coworking space where working was very hard because of it. Had to go outside for phonecalls multiple times.
The garden of the hotel is like a beautiful oasis it's amazing. Also very nice social areas.
