This hotel was quaint and was just what I needed for my week stay is Cusco. Close enough to the Plaza de Armas to see the sights and enjoy the delicious food in Cusco, but far enough away you don’t have horns blaring at all hours. Also has a beautiful courtyard that you can enjoy while reading a book or taking a call. The staff was kind and hospitable to me. After being in hostels for the majority of my month travelling, it was refreshing to have my own bed, a toilet seat and hot water. Also free breakfast starting early is a plus when you’re going out to start the day. Only flaw I had, was the pillows could be softer, but I’ve definitely had worse!

I was a little nervous about staying at Amaru Colonial because it was such a bargain, I thought it would be kind of run-down. But NO! It's GREAT. The grounds are beautiful and so are the views. Our room was super clean and comfortable. Breakfast is awesome. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Our bookings were reserved by Peru For Less. Nice place with decors and gardens. We had 2 rooms for 3pax. The breakfast and coffee was good. Staff were very approachable. We stored luggages with them due to multiple overnight trips. Wifi was good.

Stayed 3 nights with friends and greatly enjoyed our stay. The beds were comfy, the hotel looked super cool, they had free coca tea (10/10 recommend trying), and the breakfast was also available to-go if you had an early morning day trip. Shoutout to Gilbert from room service who was incredibly friendly, helpful, and cheerful during my first day in Cusco while I was suffering from altitude sickness and stuck in my room. Keep in mind that almost all hotels in Cusco only enable the heaters for a window of time: in our case, this was 7pm to 7am which was perfectly cozy for the night, and we never had any issue during the day since we were either outside or the weather was warm. The hotel has lots of hot water for showering which was a great relief after a long day outside (this not something that is guaranteed throughout Cusco hotels).

This is a great hotel for travelers on a budget. All hotel staff was incredibly attentive and helpful. The hotel, itself, is beautiful and has a gorgeous courtyard. Breakfast in the morning is delicious. The hotel also offers coca tea, filtered water, and other teas in the lobby for travelers. Amaru Colonial is located approximately 4 blocks from the main square in Cusco - a location that cannot be beat. I would highly recommend Amaru Colonial to anyone coming to Cusco.

One of the places I stayed in Peru - the only one with heating in the rooms, nice colonial style, breakfast was pretty good (also one of the only ones with avocado for breakfast for ex), the only one I stayed with free coca tea, tea or filtered water for any guest (can save you some money!), super friendly staff! I’d stay there again any time I came back to Cusco! Too bad it was fully booked for the other days.
