If you are going to Ayacucho, you must want to get a little off the typical Peruvian circuit. You will be rewarded with fewer developed accommodations and tourist oriented services. We stayed at Seville because the consensus first choice was full one of the nights we needed a room, but in the end we were happy with our stay. Seville is what I considered a basic "local tourist hotel". It is through a door shared with a restaurant and in the back of the courtyard - very quiet, as we never saw anyone eating in the restaurant. The room was large, we put the two twin beds together to make a nice "matrimonial", had cable TV and a refrigerator!! Had not seen one of those in a while and was nice to get our bottled water cold for the day. Even made some ice for my wife's sore ankle. The shower was hot and the WiFi worked most of the time in the room, but more reliable near the window or on the steps in the hall sitting under the router. Breakfast was subpar and not even offered on Sunday. We ended on on the square for breakfast both days, so felt we had the best of both worlds while...
Read moreI stayed for 8 consecutive nights at this hotel in late September 2016 and had a very pleasant stay. The staff was always very helpful and accommodating. I got room 206 and was very satisfied: plenty of space, a small refrigerator in the room, a large closet where to put my clothes, and a sizable nice bathroom with a very good supply of hot water. This room was quiet and away from the noise that comes from the street ( Jr Libertad is an extremely busy street all day long). There was a good buffet breakfast which offered hot drinks (coffee, tea in bags), good bread, yogurt, butter and jelly, and you could ask for hot milk if you wanted it. At the lobby there is a constant supply of filtered water and hot water to prepare a coca tea (mate de coca). The hotel is very close to Plaza de Armas (just needed to walk 1/2 a block to Jr Callao and then walk 2 blocks). I did not use the free WiFi available. Overall, I only have good things to say about this hotel, which was a very nice discovery. I recommend it to other visitors...
Read moreAfter a long and exhausting busride we arrived in the middle of the night at Hotel Sevilla in Ayacucho. The staff of Hotel Sevilla was so friendly and welcoming even at 4.00 am in the morning! We slept like babys on the good quality boxspring beds. The same day we enjoyed the wonderful breakfast on the topfloor having an amazing view of the city of Ayacucho. Hotel Sevilla has a beautiful patio where you can sit around a beautiful mosaic fountain. It’s a nice sunny place to have a cup of tea, read a book or just relax. The Hotel has a colonial/ Spanish atmosphere, with lots of nice details like the paintings and the pottery. We absolutely recommend Hotel Sevilla to all the tourist who go to Ayacucho. This hidden gem has it all, clean rooms with tv, fridge and microwave, hot showers, it is quiet in the nighttime, a beautiful patio and very important very friendly staff. Thank you so much Hotel Sevilla we’ve had a wonderfull...
