Hostal El Peregrino — Hotel in Distrito de Cusco

Clean, conveniently located, and comfortable. |This family owned hostel is located in the center of the square. We stayed one night at a historical convent hotel one night before coming here, but the exhaust from the cars were bad every time we stepped out. This hostel is located where cars cannot access, which means you gotta carry your luggage one block on a cobble road, but quieter, cleaner air, and a few second walk to everywhere! |The hostess cooks you a warm breakfast every morning with freshly made juice and fruits, warm bread and starts your morning the right way or pack you a snack to take on a road trip. |When I was struggling with bad air quality which induced mild asthma, the hostess prepared a warm tea and hot water to take to the room without asking, just took care of me like family.

The breakfast is also satisfying and cheap. I’d stay there again if I am ever...

This charming family-owned hotel has incredibly friendly staff. I initially booked a one-bedroom instead of a two-bed room by mistake, but they kindly upgraded our room without charging an extra fee. The rooms are basic—not fancy—but comfortable and clean. The location is very close to Cusco’s main square, which comes with its pros and cons. The nightlife in Cusco is surprisingly lively (especially for someone used to living in NYC), and the sound from nearby bars and discos can be an issue for hotels in this area. While the hotel was quiet during the weekdays, Saturday night was challenging, as we could hardly sleep due to the noise from a nearby disco. However, if you're looking for a budget-friendly option with comfortable rooms, a convenient location, and lovely staff, this hotel is a...
