The best thing about this property is that it is right in front of the main square in Cusco. Get the room with a view to the square. It has a balcony with awesome views.

This place is so charming! Beautiful facility, right on Plaza de Armas - easy access to everything tourists/visitors may need. We had a wonderful time on our visit to El Virrey.

The bed very comfortable. Hot water in the shower. Just in front of plaza the armas. Just a recommendation if your sleep is light use earplugs just for the front rooms. Because nightlife is wild.

We chose this property due to its location right in front of plaza de Armas.
The staff seemed a bit odd, and not very friendly.
Everything seemed tolerable until I got severely beaten by what seem to be bedbugs and fleas!!!
I immediately notified the staff, and they switched us to another room in the middle of the night, but I was leaving for a tour very early in the morning, and so I left that morning with my body covered invites, and when I came back, we simply decided to leave this dirty and old hotel! The staff cooperated as far as releasing us without having to pay for the stay, but did end up spending extra money in a doctor and medications as the bites were extremely uncomfortable. The hotel refused to help compensate for the inconvenient and helping perhaps pay for the medical expenses.
Please if you want to have a great time and not get bitten by nasty bugs please reconsider before booking El Virrey Boutique!!!!

It’s great place to stay and being a hub for exploring a Cusco and its surroundings. We stayed three nights here. It’s at the best location of the city-main square. All the restaurants are easily accessible. And tour companies are nearby so it’s easy to go for day tour. Before we left for Machu Picchu we left our big luggage in the hotel for two nights and they had no problem at all. We are grateful for that. It’s in the city center so we didn’t expect a big room. But actually it’s big enough for three of us and luggage our room doesn’t have a view of the square but I’m glad that. Because the square can get quite noisy during the day until late night (actually whole night). Heater and bathroom and shower everything works very well.

Great location, staff was accomodating and helpful. The location is really everything, you are right in the middle, travel around the area was easy. If you get lost just walk to the cathedral

The lady at the front desk was very reserved and quiet. I let her know we were celebrating our 12th anniversary and told her I was willing to pay for them to have chocolate covered strawberries with champagne and she never contacted me. They didn’t even leave us a happy anniversary note. Maybe I expected more from them because from previous hotels they were all and above making us feel welcome. The location is great but be prepared to hear the noise of cars and people all night.

The property is clean and staff is friendly, however since it is next to plaza de armas it is very noisy at all hours of the day and hard to sleep.

The only good thing about this property is its location.
3.0
Location is central and very close to the best restaurants, shopping and pick-up/drop-off point for tours. Room and bathroom are very small, tight corners, and internet in room is dismal. Buy your own data plan for full coverage. Breakfast service is nice. Server makes your fresh eggs to your liking. Front office staff are friendly and helpful. Overall fair value for money.

We were crazy about this hotel. It is a small hotel but very pretty inside. Gorgeous wood floors, very comfortable rooms. The best part was the balcony with an amazing view. Breakfast was a little underwhelming but sufficient. Staff was friendly. Would absolutely recommend.

I did want to pay the price to have a good stay in Cusco and when I checked in this hotel , the receptionist assure the room has all the comfort but it was a nightmare to take a shower,it was cold weather and also a cold water in the shower , after 2 hours to try to fix the shower by myself and not result I asked the receptionist in turn of the night to do it. But he couldnt fix it. We have to take a chilli shower. In the next day the manager in charge didnt recognize the hotel issues ,even no apologies , You. dont get the service that you pay in the Virrey Boutique Hostal.

The hotel was located in the main square, which is the Plaza De Arms. Therefore walking distance to everything. The rooms are clean & cozy but the rooms & washrooms are very small. The breakfast was good & basic. Due to high altitude issues one cannot eat a lot and therefore a good continental b'fest is fine. Staff are very friendly & helpful too .

Worst hotel in the Best Location in Cusco - right outside the main square (plaza de armas)
we stayed for 3 night there - Day1: we had room#304 - this room was really small. felt very claustrophobic and suffocated. Checked if they had a fan for some circulation/ventilation but nope. could not sleep all night.
Day2: we moved to room#302 - which had a small window for some ventilation. But the bathroom had a stink to it. And the stink was maddening. used up half a perfume bottle to barely breathe.
Day3: we covered drain holes with a towel to get control the smell which helped.
the smell was probably due to flooding under the tiles. but ruined the experience.
only two rooms in the entire hotel are good - the ones with the view are better and bigger. but double the price.
I would not recommend this hotel . Stayed at a different hotel when back to Cusco.
