We had a great stay in Pariwana hostel. The room was comfortable and spacious and the staff were so friendly and helpful. There was a little kitchen with a microwave and hot water which was great. Very good location. Would recommend.

It is very close to the city center and San Pedro station. The staff is very helpful and super kind :) Regy (I hope I wrote it right) helped me a lot with everything. It was especially nice that he made me tea when I was affected by the high altitude, I felt like I was at home :) The accommodation also has a restaurant. They offer many delicious options at affordable prices. The hostel also has a perfect city view :)

I had one of the most welcoming stays at this hotel, nestled in a beautiful area. It’s the perfect location for those looking to connect with nature and explore unique parts of Cusco that aren't widely known. The rooms are comfortable and well-appointed, featuring a lovely terrace with stunning views. The hospitality of Romulo and Gelga is truly exceptional. Romulo picked us up and ensured we were comfortable after a challenging bus ride. They were always available to answer our questions and provide directions. The following day, we enjoyed a fantastic horseback ride through the area, visiting the Templo de la Luna, the Wind Temple, Paqcha K'usillo, and Kusilluchayoc, the Temple of the Monkeys. We were fortunate to have Romulo as our guide; his extensive knowledge and passion for the region enriched our experience. Hearing the history from his perspective was a true honor. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were sad that we could only book a few nights. I highly recommend this place—it's just a 20-minute drive from the center of Cusco, with taxis readily available. Romulo is always there to assist if needed.

All hostels in Cusco

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Great service, super welcoming, nice breakfast and the perfect budget hostel. Its surrounded by cheap food options and a 5 min walk from the main plaza. Cheap and cheerful. Kevin is really helpful with suggestions and recommendations. Not a party hostel, so be aware, but still had fun and a few nights out with the staff and guests!
