    The room was a little loud with other guests coming and going at all hours but most everyone was respectful of the time and minimized noise.

    I was very pleased housekeeping came daily to empty trash and make beds, plus bring fresh towels. This was above what I expected at this price point/style of accommodations and it went a long way to increase comfort.

    Only thing is that the bed sheets were a bit yellow, they have less plugs, and the heating only works from 7 pm to 7 am (hot water works always).

    Nice hotel with Charme, very friendly staff, great location. Offered us a lunch box as we couldn’t make it to breakfast due to a trip, and breakfast the other day was also nice. They have Coca tea 24/7. Can recommend!

    The hotel itself is very pretty being set in a colonial style building. The facilities were great with unlimited tea, coffee and coca tea. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Very happy with our stay and would return again.

    Well, they only provide heat from 7pm -7am in our room? Im not sure about AC during Summer months. We stayed 2nd week of March 2025, So, it was still a bit chilly during night time. and the bathroom sink has no Hot water, just regular 1 cold water faucet. The breakfast is Med. but staff are so friendly and helpful.

    The main thing here is the Location. when you're at this elevation (Cusco) , you don't want another flight of steps to climb on. And its very close to the Plaza de Armas. The staff are friendly and attentive. Most of them speak other languages. The hotel setting is nature inspired and cabin/ranch style. Cleanliness is superb. They clean our rooms daily, even though we didn't request it. Wifi is pretty fast. and most of all, they offered 24hr hot drinks e.g Munia tea, Coca Tea, coffee. Self serve.

    The WiFi was very weak in our room and cut out frequently.

    The hotel is located in a steep narrow street in the heart of the Cuzco historic city and had great views. Despite its location, it was quiet at night and very comfortable. House keeping was provided - we could have reused our towels instead of having fresh each day though - and the property was very clean. A great breakfast selection was provided each day, plus they would provide a packed breakfast if you were going on an early excursion.

    The location is simply amazing, a few blocks to the Plaza and right next to the San Blas neighbourhood, its walkable from essentially everywhere. The staff was super welcoming and helpful, the breakfast absolutely delicious, and the hotel is beautiful as well. Overall, very happy and highly recommend Amaru and also their location in Urubamba.

    We stayed a few times during our travels near Cusco. Really friendly and helpful staff always. We were able to leave luggage during each trip away. Rooms very comfy and well decorated. Bathrooms great. Beautiful garden courtyards with outside seating. Great views over the rooftops with the occasional burst of fireworks! Tasty breakfast with typical choice. 5 minute walk down shop filled road to Plaza de Armas. Good restaurants very nearby. Loved it. Shall stay again. Thank you all

    I stayed in two separate rooms on the ground floor and first floor. The one on the ground floor was smaller but more practical. Heating takes a bit of time to get started.

    Cozy place, loved the courtyard and the flexibility (for example when it came to luggage storage)

    The shower could be a bit better, once there was no hot water (very early in the morning, like 3 AM).

    It was very nice! We had a very nice room, clean and comfortable. They had an overnight heating, which was nice. The breakfast is also a big plus, and the fact they offer coca tea/muňa tea is very convenient. We really felt at home.

    This was my second 2-night stay at the Amaru Inca. I emailed the hotel before my visit, pointing out that the first room I had been offered on my previous visit had been unsuitable, and this time I was given a perfectly satisfactory ground floor room. (It even had a wardrobe to hang some clothes!) So I would have awarded 9/10 this time (with minus one for an unexciting buffet breakfast). It's a great hotel! But then the internet packed up at lunchtime on the second day. I was flying home the following day and so I needed internet access to get some stuff sorted out. I asked at Reception and was given the unsatisfactory and unhelpful response "Try again in 30 minutes." Hence I twice had to go out to a nearby cafe and purchase food and drink that I didn't really want so that I could use their WiFi. The internet was back on in the Amaru Inca on my return from my second such visit at 8 pm, so the total internet outage must have been 6-8 hours.
