3-Sterne-Hotels in Cusco, Peru

Ich blieb hier 4 Nächte vor und nach dem Salkantay Trek. Die ersten 4 Nächte waren in einem Studiozimmer, das sehr schön mit Pflanzen und Blumen dekoriert ist, die letzten 4 Nächte waren in einem Doppelzimmer mit Blick auf die Stadt. Ich genossen mein Aufenthalt in beiden. Der Checkout war sehr einfach, ich verließ den Schlüssel und Taschen in meinem Zimmer, als ich bei 4.30am zum Salkantay Trek verließ, und als ich zurückkam, wurde ich sofort in mein neues Zimmer mit meinen Taschen bereits ins Haus gebracht, die nach einem müde 5 Tage fühlte sich wirklich schön. Das Frühstück war schön, hatte frische Papaya oder Orangensaft. Die Lage war auch groß, nur etwa 5 Minuten zu Fuß zum Hauptplatz (ca. 10 Minuten hoch) und die ersten 2 Straßen vom Hauptplatz haben Polizeibeamte um mich, das Gefühl sicherer. Auch viele Cafés und Restaurants in den Straßen um sie herum. Ich hatte Diarrhö und fühlte mich am letzten Tag schlecht und war dankbar, dass ich später aussehen konnte, um längere Ruhe zu haben.

This was an absolutely FANTASTIC stay experience and I recommend it to all travellers to Cusco. The house is conveniently located in the historic centre of Cusco and you can easily access restaurants, cafes, main attractions within a few minutes of walking. The Wanchaq train station is at most a 20-minute walk on the main street of Cusco, thereby making it very safe and easy at any time of the day. Taking an Uber, it is around 20 to 30-minute drive to the Cusco Airport, costing less than PEN 20. The main gates are locked at night for safety, though all staff will make sure that front desk service is still available 24 hours for anyone needing to exit or enter the premises. Communications is conveniently maintained through WhatsApp and made very easy. There is some street noise in the rooms at night including music playing from nearby shops, but that seems to be more prevalent on the weekends. The room and bathroom are well-maintained and have all the necessary amenities, including welcoming packets of coca tea. There is an electric heater in the room for nights with lower temperatures. Breakfast is made-to-order for every item, and it feels like a private restaurant experience. Eggs cooked any way are of top quality; juices are freshly squeezed; breads are toasted warm; coffee and tea are made fresh and refilled at a moment's notice; and the fruit salads are filled with copious amount of fresh fruit. Service is all top notch: homemade breakfast every morning, housekeeping at appropriate times, 24-hour service for late-night arrivals or early-morning departures, and answering questions for travellers - the hosts are absolutely warm and welcoming in every way possible. They also generously kept my large luggage in storage while I travelled to Machu Picchu for two days (coming back to stay again after), which made my trip very convenient. Again, I would recommend this to all travellers to Cusco, especially considering that the value for money is amazing.

A Very Reliable and Well-Located Base for Machu Picchu My stay at Hotel Pakarina was a very positive experience. It served as an excellent and comfortable base for visiting Machu Picchu. Here’s a detailed breakdown of my stay: · Excellent Location: The hotel is perfectly located. You are within easy walking distance of the bus station to Machu Picchu, the train station, and the central market. Most importantly, there are ample food options and restaurants available right near the hotel, making it incredibly convenient for meals. How to Reach from Airport Cusco Airport to ollantaytambo train station. Taxi charges 35 USD Time: 1.5hrs ollantaytambo train station to Machu Picchu/ aguas calientes train station: 135 USD return tickets, per person. Time: 1.45hrs Aguas calientes train station to hotel is on walk of 500 meters. Aguas Calientes to Machu Picchu Bus available: 24 USD return ticket. Time 20min · Helpful and Friendly Owner: A major highlight was the owner. He was exceptionally helpful, offering great advice and guiding us on our tour plans. This local insight was invaluable and made our trip much smoother. · Good Daily Breakfast: The included breakfast was tasty and satisfying, providing a great start to the day. It's also the time when tea and coffee are served, so you can get your caffeine fix before heading out. · Clean and Tidy: Daily cleaning service is provided, and our room was always kept spotless. The hotel feels very well-maintained. · Convenient Currency: As noted, USD is widely accepted in the area at the market rate, which includes settling your bill at the hotel. This makes things very easy for international travelers. Things to Note: · No In-Room Tea/Coffee: Be aware that there are no tea or coffee making facilities in the room. You'll need to wait for the breakfast service or pop out to one of the many nearby cafes if you want a drink outside of those hours.

Ich hatte zwei separate Buchungen mit dem Hotel, als ich nach Machu Picchu ging und dort übernachtete. Während meines ersten Tages in diesem Hotel in meiner ersten Buchung wurde mir gebeten, für diese zweite Buchung zusammen zu zahlen. Kein Empfang gegeben, aber sicher war, dass es keinen Missverständnis geben wird. Es wurde gesagt, meine Sachen zu verpacken und bei der Rezeption zu verlassen und zu überprüfen und wieder einchecken. Also nicht sicher, warum ich für die zweite Buchung voraus in meiner ersten Buchung bezahlen musste (Vielleicht habe ich es nicht gefeuert, wie ich es wirklich versucht hatte). Wie in meiner vorherigen Post erwähnt, die Einrichtungen sind schwer fehlen, die Ursache für eine geringe Wasserversorgung, die Rohre und Toiletten füllen ist sehr laut und der Wasserfluss aus dem Tape ist wie das Bild in der Nacht und es war trickling und drehen eines der frühen Morgen, wenn ich eine Tour hatte. Kurz gesagt, werde ich nicht mehr hier bleiben.

The hotel is a few minutes walking distance from the Machu Picchu train station and right on the side of the rails. The best thing is that it is also only 2-minutes away from the bus stop that takes visitors to the entrance of Machu Picchu so it is ideal for any early morning excursions. During the day and up until around 9pm there will be trains passing by every once in a while and can get loud, but otherwise there is not too much source of noise. Since Aguas Calientes is a tiny town, most of the restaurants, marketplaces, and cafes are within a 10 to 15-minute walking distance. The hotel is clean and well-maintained, with a great balcony view of the surrounding mountains. Receptionist Mary was extremely helpful through WhatsApp communications, even coming to the train station to pick up guests, and gave a lot of information about visiting Machu Picchu. Breakfast allowed for an early start to accommodate those having early morning entrance tickets, and it was a decent buffet of varied food and made-to-order eggs. They were also very generous to allow guests to stay and rest in the reception area after check-out time and keep bags in storage before taking a late afternoon train. All in all a great choice if you are planning to visit Machu Picchu

Let me start with the positives, stylish design, exactly like the pics advertised, from entering the hotel to the resting area to the balcony to the room, all very nice. But you need to be ready for the stairs if you not getting here by car, going out and coming back from the square, especially if you have luggage or backpack, everyone arriving here were out of breath. The bathroom has odor coming up from the pipe, which is normal for house this old, if you are okay with it. I was in room 201, sound proof does not exist, can hear car passing, dog barking, guests coming back from partying at night, tourists cheering & leaving hotel for trips at 3:30am, didn’t get much sleep. Most disappointing thing was hot water, I arrived in the afternoon climbing up the stairs, was hoping to have a quick shower before heading out for dinner, stood in the bathroom waited 5mins for hot water, was told be staff hot water was out they are trying to fix, came back after drinks, still no hot water, was very late so didn’t call staff, tried to have a shower before check out at 7am, hot water was still not available after another good 5mins standing in the shower… sigh

The hotel was in a very good location, within a less than 5 minutes walk to plaza de armas. There was plenty of food options, convenience stores, shops, pharmacies and markets all around. The breakfast was simple but filling featuring juices, cereal, coffee, teas and assortment of cheese, ham and jams. Elmer the owner was very accommodating and attentive to every aspect of our stay. When we asked if there was a toaster, he went out and bought one the next day so that we could have toast. On the days we had early morning tours, they provided us with a packed breakfast. The room was very spacious. At times there was a lack of hot water but after waiting a few minutes, the hot was comes back. It seems to be an issue in the city rather than just this hotel. The hotel was charming, the rooms were clean and the staff were friendly and very helpful. A canister of oxygen was provided when my partner was suffering from a bit of altitude sickness. Thank you Elmer and Soledad for your excellent hospitality and for making our stay thoroughly enjoyable.

**Absolut herausragender Aufenthalt – 5 Sterne! ** Wir haben vor kurzem ein paar Nächte in diesem Hotelzimmer verbracht und überstieg alle Erwartungen. Von dem Moment, als wir ins Haus gingen, fühlten sich der Raum frisch, unverschämt sauber und gezielt gestaltet. Das Bett war unglaublich komfortabel, schwimmende Matratzen, hochwertiges Bettwäsche und Kissen, die es schwer machte, morgens aufzustehen. Das Zimmer selbst war geräumig, hell und schön eingerichtet, mit modernen Möbeln und einem erstaunlichen Blick, den wir nicht aufhalten konnten. Alles funktionierte perfekt: starkes WLAN, ein ruhiges und effizientes Klimaanlage und eine gut gespeicherte Minibar. Das Badezimmer war spotless, mit ausgezeichnetem Wasserdruck, weichen Handtüchern und luxuriösen Toiletten. Die Hausaufbewahrung war aufmerksam, aber ununterdrücklich, und die allgemeine Atmosphäre fühlte sich friedlich und hochend. Für den Preis war der Wert außergewöhnlich. Wir haben uns völlig entspannt und bereits unsere nächsten Besuche planen lassen. Sehr empfehlen Sie dieses Zimmerund dieses Hotel jedem, der einen wirklich komfortablen und erinnerlichen Aufenthalt sucht.

I stayed at this hotel twice; in between I went to Macchu Pichu and left the baggage at the hotel. Location wise - it’s very central with a PeruRail office next door albeit the other ones are not too far. Reception is 24hr and there is a nice courtyard with a restaurant as well as a common area with a kitchen at the back. I stayed in the Teepee tent on both occasions; first time the rate was more affordable at around gbp40/night. In July, the night gets cold. But the tent does have additional blankets and a heater. This worked except on the last night as it seems it stopped in middle of the night. Without the heater, the room was quite cold. The common bathroom is at the back; the showers are ok and you get enough privacy. I noticed the hot water does take a while to come through. I left the baggage in the storage - no issues. Overall good but for same price bracket I would try somewhere else.
