I was impressed with the kindness and cordiality of the staff , especially with Kenia and Suly. They helped and guided me with the different tour packages. La Posada del Viajero was the perfect place to stay in Cuzco for my family. It is very close to the Main Plaza and the rooms are a good size for a family of four.They offer breakfast and it was a good variety 😀 .

The people at the counter are very nice. They pack you a lunch if you are going to leave on a trip very early in the morning which is really helpful due to most trips starting around 4 am. Coca tea is available for the guests, a genuine lifesaver if you get altitude sickness.

Cozy away from home

It is a nice economy Hotel. The staff are super nice, always willing to help. It made the environment feel cozy. Free breakfast and what I love the most is that if you had an early trip before breakfast, you can ask the night before to prepare you breakfast and they will have a breakfast bag for you. Around. the hotel a lot of little places to sit and relax. Really enjoyed my stay.

This was a functionally good hotel for us. We needed a clean, safe, and convenient place to sleep and shower. This hotel did just that. The free breakfast was more than expected and the staff was very friendly. The wifi was weak and I had to stand in the courtyard to get any service. It is not a fancy place, but it is functional.

Conveniently located close to the Plaza de Armas. Rooms could use some improvement. Very cute and cozy Hotel. One of the members in our party fell ill. The staff was amazing, not only did they provided us with Oxygen, they arranged for an ambulance service. Thank fully after a very well established protocol in the Clinic, We were able to board our train to Machu Picchu on time, the staff prepared for us breakfasts to go. Thank you so much, La Posada de el Viajero! We hope to see you again and enjoy more of your hotel ( minus the Soroche) - Beautiful Cusco.

Second time staying here and will definitely return!! Great rooms, this time stayed in a single room with my husband. Last time we stayed in a room with three or four beds. Both were great! The price range is great!! Extremely clean! Great location, about 6 minute walk to Plaza de Armas. The food for breakfast is perfect. It’s buffet style, fresh bread, eggs, potatoes, bacon, yogurt, fresh fruit, fresh juice, coffee, tea. Can’t ask for more!! The staff is always friendly and professional. Can’t wait to return!

Pontos positivos: localização. Pontos negativos: no quarto não havia frigobar e nem armários. O hotel todo era feito de madeira e, sempre que alguém andava em qualquer parte, se escutava o barulho. As portas dos quartos fechavam com dificuldade, então o tempo todo também se ouvia portas batendo. As pessoas falavam muito alto, tarde da noite, nas áreas de convivência e o hotel se recusava a pedir silêncio. O chuveiro só aquecia de vez em quando. O mesmo para o aquecedor do quarto, que sequer tínhamos o controle. A recepção que ligava com um único controle (as vezes estávamos de pijama dentro do quarto e tínhamos que receber os funcionários para ligar o aquecedor). As vezes o aquecedor desligava sozinho no meio da madrugada e também fazia estrondos. O wifi caía toda hora. Vários dias, após a limpeza, a porta do meu quarto foi deixada destrancada e a janela ABERTA, com a minha mochila exposta a quem passasse. Mesmo reportando o problema, a situação se repetiu. Por último, o café da manhã acabava muito rápido e poucas coisas eram repostas.
