Amazing stay!

An amazing stay! The owners are so lovely and did everything they could to make our stay pleasant. They let us check in early after a long night bus which we appreciated so Much. The hotel is beautiful and just a 10 mins walk from the center so it’s really quiet. Breakfast is nice and the rooms are big with plenty of hot shower. Definitely our favourite hotel in Peru!

Helpful owner

Spacious room, convenient location, good breakfast on the patio, but most of all, the owner is incredibly helpful. He arranged for our laundry to be cleaned on short notice, he gave us a lot of advice on what to see and where to eat. He also arranged a driver to take us to Colca canyon. So helpful!

Rather pleasant inn 10-15” from the ❤️ of Arequipa

The service at this posada was excellent. Staff was very attentive to my requests and spoke very good English. The price I paid was excellent, but keep in mind that this is not a place to expect a soap, shampoo, or bottled water to be at the ready. Breakfast on the terrace was very nice. The room was reasonably comfortable and quiet. It about a 10-15” walk to the sites of historic Arequipa.

Simple and welcoming

We arrived at 01.00am and were welcomed by the night porter. The room is simple but clean and comfy. Breakfast on the roof terrace was fruit, choice of eggs with bread, butter and jam, juice tea and coffee. Really good value for money. Hot water was plentiful and wifi was OK but not great from the ground floor

Pension fantastique

Nous avons séjourné 2 mois en Amérique du Sud. De tous les hôtels et pensions que nous avons choisis, la posada Nueva España est notre favorite !, charme de la pension, accueil, propreté des chambres, le tout exceptionnel !! Le petit déjeuner, servi sur une très jolie terrasse, n'est pas en reste. Le propriétaire, José, et toute sa famille se sont montrés très attentionnés tout le long du séjour. Nous sommes retournés dans cette pension, un peu comme quand on revient à la maison. Enfin, l'emplacement est très bien, à quelques minutes à pied du centre historique, il permet d'être au calme le soir venu...après une bonne journée de vadrouille. Restaurants et supermarché à 2 pas. Quartier très propre. Merci encore à nos hôtes pour ce superbe séjour !

Wonderful staff who were extremely helpful. They arranged a tour to Colca Canyon for us. The hotel is very clean and well maintained. Made our stay in Arequipa pleasant and easy. One small note is noise transfer between rooms which may be an issue for light sleepers.

We had a great stay at this B&B. It's a 10 minute walk to the Plaza de Armes across a lovely bridge with great views. The area felt safe walking home. The room was clean and had hot water. The breakfast was a good size with tea/coffee, bread, jam, eggs and fresh fruit. There was some noise from a nearby building on Saturday night but we still slept well.
