The location was perfect. It was right on the Plaza de Armas in the old part of Arequipa. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The view from the rooftop was amazing. Check it out at night for a late night drink and snacks.

View was fantastic. Access to restaurant was difficult/terrible. Food was fine and wait staff tried hard to be accommodating.

Jacqueline, United States of America

The location of hotel was perfect for our sightseeing. Staff very friendly , helpful and professional. We only had breakfast at hotel which was lovely but the piece de resistance was the rooftop restaurant and bar- I love eating outside and the view spectacular.

Watch the sun go down from The roof deck- loved getting a blanket so I was not cold. a great bath tub and amazing massage - great location-

Rarb, United States of America

The view from the rooftop terrace was great! Also try the vanilla cookies from the shop just off the lobby. The staff were really helpful and told us to visit the convent at night when the candles and fires were lit on Tuesday or Thursday! It was such a great tip. We really enjoyed being walking distance from all the great stuff! They were very accommodating and put another proper bed for a fee in the room since we had another friend join us while we were in Arequipa.

The breakfast was a little disappointing and the staff were not very friendly, although it was lovely having it on the roof. Our room was a little noisy as we were directly underneath the top floor where the restaurant was.
The reception staff were very friendly and helpful during our stay. The room was clean and the location was on the central square which was great.

We arrived very early and because the hotel is so popular our room could not be ready early. So no shower when we got off the overnight bus, but we could use a basic bathroom!
The location is great and the roof top terrace and restaurant is great. What a fantastic view!!!

We had to store the lugagge in the hotel for one night as we made a trekking and returned next day. We handed over our lugagge at the reception for storage. After our return expensive headphones were stolen out of the backpack. The reception personal reactetd not professional. No real excuse or compensation for the loss. The lugagge was probably left unatended in the reception area. Not acceptable.
The restaurant on the rooftop has a fantastic view. Breakfast was ok. Breakfast and Bar staff very friendly and helpful.

“Horrible!”
- • Leisure trip

So much noise! The hotel knew there was an event scheduled in Plaza de Armas. There was loud yelling over loud speakers the entire time I stayed there. I complained Friday night when I was woken up at 11:30 pm for random yelling on the speaker system. The hotel did not move me and the noise continued the entire stay. It started at 6:30 am and it went throughout the day until late at night. It is not honest of the hotel to charge way more than other hotels in the area for a superior room where it is too noisey for the client to even sleep. Evehnts like this are planned in advance. The hotel should either tell the client that they will be bombarded with yelling over loud speakers or close that room and have guests stay only in rooms that are quiet enough to relax and sleep. To charge over $100 a night for a room where the person cannot sleep because of the noise is not right.
The staff are nice. They are friendly and polite and really try and give good service The breakfast is good...you can order an omlette. The food is very good. The water pressure is good Filtered water to drink in the room.

When it rains, water will leak from the stair leading to the rooftop restaurant.
The location of the hotel is excellent. It is just at the centre of the main square. Basically most of the sightseeing points are within walking distance. The staff are helpful and resourceful.
