Best Cusco Hotels

Some of the best budget choices to be found in Cusco are in the city's San Blas district. Larger, finer hotels don't tend to base themselves up here because the neighborhood is a steep climb from the city center and the narrow, cobbled streets don't allow for the easiest of access.

However, the architecture and atmospheric and ancient winding streets give the district a unique charm, making it popular for budget travelers looking for affordable hostels.

One of the best hostels in the area is the Amaru, located on Cuesta San Blas 541. With characterful rooms situated around a pleasantly tranquil courtyard, the hostel offers a relaxing getaway from the hustle and bustle of downtown Cusco.

For a mid-range choice in the same district, Casa Andina San Blas is an ideal option. Like the Amaru, this hotel benefits from the district's secluded appeal, and has been created in a well-renovated and perfectly restored colonial stone building.

With wood burning chimneys and various seating areas offering spectacular views of the red-tiled roofs of San Blas, this is the perfect hotel to enjoy this unique neighborhood and relax in comfort and style.

For a higher-end choice, the Casa Andina Private Collection offers some of the finest accommodations in the city. The property is a converted18th century manor house that has been renovated to accentuate the colonial elements including the stone fireplace located in what is now the reading room and of course the colonial courtyards that serve as interior patios for guests to relax in.

A gourmet restaurant serves guests a mix of local and western dishes and a colonial-style bar is also available. In the rooms, enriched oxygen is available for guests to ensure they are comfortable and during their stay in a city at such a high altitude. The decor is simple and elegant Andean chic. If you want to stay at this highly demanded property it is recommended you book in advance.
