This place is in a great location in Cusco - close enough to things but far enough away to be peaceful. The outdoor area is beautiful, the rooms are nice, and the staff is incredibly accommodating! Bonus: they speak English :)

The hotel is nice and is within the heart area of San Blas. There is a store nearby and to find essentials. The breakfast buffet is fair enough. Special attention to Gerson and Karen for their support during our stay. They helped us a lot and giving all possible aid because of the altitude sickness. We are happy with the received services.

I wish I could give this hotel a glowing review, but for me it really missed the mark.
The first thing was that as a tourist, I was very far from the central touristed area. Way up a hill away from the main plaza. At 11,000 feet, unless you have just finished or are training for the Inca Trail the climb back to the hotel would be arduous. The view was fine, but hardly worth the walk in my opinion.
The first thing that I saw in the lobby was a gleaming Espresso machine. The second thing I saw was a sign that a cup of it would cost me about $1.50. Same with the room, two large bottles of water, each with a 5 Sol sign on them. Come on! You are charging me over a $100 USD a night and want to charge me for a bottle of water I can get on the street for less than a dollar?
Check in was smooth and efficient. My room was 415.This hotel was nothing but stairs. Stairs up to the room. Stairs down to the lobby. More stairs down to the restaurant.
The room was small and efficient. Kind of like a college dorm room. Bed, table squished into one corner, TV on the wall that could be pulled out to face the bed. Oddly shaped room, few right angles. He bed was comfortable and I didn’t notice a lot of noise from the other guests. The one window in the room looked out onto the landing for that floor. Really! If you had the shades open you were on display.

We stayed at Casa Andina San Blas three days before a 5-day trek and one night after. The rooms are nice and spacious. The last night we got upgrated to a suite, which was apprechiated after a 5-day trek. The guys in the reception were always friendly and helpful. The hotel is also close to main attractions in the old town. The only negative experience was trying to get in contact with the hotel to book transport from the airport, this was difficult and I never got a reply. This Even when I replied to an e-Mail I got from the hotel 48 hours before our scheduled stay. There were no problem getting a taxi at the airport, but getting in contact with the hotel should be easier. Would still recommend staying at this hotel!

It was a relatively big hotel with decent space. The room was spacious and clean enough not to feel uncomfortable. The location is a bit far from the central area, about 10-15 min walk, with quite a hill in the middle of the way. It was overall satisfactory.
3.0
Great hotel. The room was spacious. The shower had great water pressure. We were allowed to leave our bags for the 4 days we went on the inca trail. Breakfast had lots of options.
You could hear noise from the hallway in the room. Had to walk up a bit of a hill to get there.

Very good rooms and locations, but the there were chaos in the street outside the hotel because of narrow parking slots for cars.

Very close and within a 10 min walk to the town center, it is quite a climb to the top of the hill but we do not mind the walk. Safe area, and very quiet. The breakfast is very simple but good enough to start your day, eggs with juices, cereals and bread with jams. Very clean and the folks are very helpful and friendly. The only problem we had was with room 201 or 210,same room we stayed at both times, please make the curtains longer or add another set, they won't cover the whole window which makes you have to choose what part of the room you want privacy in, and it lets all the daylight into the room when the sun comes up. Besides that, it was all perfect, thank you and would not hesitate to find another hotel if we return.

I cannot fathom what I read to have reserved one night -- thank God, not longer -- at this dismal spot, which has probably not been updated since the Dark Ages. Yes, San Blas is a wonderful neighborhood, but there were far superior options steps away! From arrival to departure, it was a let down...at best! The room doors are cheap and the walls far from sound proof. I was awakened at 3 am when another guest returned to his room down the hall, then listened as he vomited for som time. Breakfast offered was barely acceptable.

Recently stayed in several hotels in Peru in the same hotel category and price range. My observation is that for the price you pay, another chain ranks much higher than this one. Quite disappointed in some aspects with this hotel.
Staff is fantastic. Great service, they really do seem to care. However:
• In the reception area, you can only find coca tea. I believe they should also offer hot water and other types of tea such as Muña tea for those suffering altitude sickness but better to drink right before night time as it relaxes you.
• No free water available in the rooms for brushing teeth. Must purchase it additionally.
• Same blunt breakfast served as all other hotels in the same category. Could differentiate a bit by providing some local specialties and to change it a bit each day. I would highly recommend adding avocado which tastes really good in Peru to the menu.
• Too many stairs, no lift in the section of the hotel that has 3 floors. This can be pretty hard to climb several times a day at this altitude.
• Free wifi connection and speed is horrible. They offer a better quality wifi at a cost (€3 per day) which I found non acceptable for the price range of this hotel.
• Not all rooms are equal. Some are great and look into the beautiful courtyard, and some don’t even have windows. Price should be different.
• We were not informed that the hotel offers shuttle service to airport for $5 (found out by other reviewers). Would be good if guests were informed

Everything was great but the checkout could be later, though and the room could be much better by having a refrigerator.The hotel doesn't have room service or restaurant ,just the buffet breakfast,which is very basic.But overall the hotel is great,the attendants are really nice and is near Plaza de Armas ,restaurants,bars,shops,everything by foot and the price is good .I would stay there again for sure.

This hotel had very helpful and friendly staff. The room was clean, spacious with all the amenities including a room with computer to print boarding passes. The only problem was the barking dogs in the neighbourhood. Unfortunately this was not within the hotel's ability to correct. The staff was able to communicate in English and were helpful to arrange taxi to the airport. Would highly recommend.

Very nice place to stay and service is very attentive. Great attention to detail form everyone!
Hotel is located in a quiet uphill street, very nice and spread out like a "hacienda"

Great hospitality and service. Very nice breakfast and tea service. Plaza San Blas is my new favorite location for lodging in Cusco (visited many times), far enough from the busier part of town to provide a more authentic flavor of Peru while still super convenient to all points of interest and services in Cusco.

It is an old hotel that seems to have been renovated. The included breakfast was very good and that makes up for a good part of the stay.

The hotel is alright. We meant to stay at the casa andina private but booked the wrong place. We walked by the casa andina private and it looked super nice. This place was good too. A little cold in the room, and the breakfast was not good, but overall it got the job done.

THis is a small, no frills hotel. I had booked it sight unseen for my arrival night (before heading out on the Inca Trail)because my trekking group had also booked us in there on the night before our departure.
The place is very clean and the staff are absolutely great.There is a decent breakfast buffet but no meals are served. The hotel is situated in the oldest part of the city, San Blas, and surrounded by narrow,cobbled streets,and small shops, making for an interesting browse. There are many adobe brick homes behind the hotel,from which I heard barking dogs at one point in the night.
As with many economy South American hotels, the heat was barely adequate.
I found in later conversation with other members of our group, it is possible to get more for less at other hotels, if you are interested in amenities.

The hotel is good, conveniently located a walking distance from plaza de armas. A little thin walls allow to hear your neighbors. But it was comfortable.

Although the website photos are very elegant, and this hotel is located a bit further up a mountainside road than some others (in proximity to the central plaza of Cusco,) it is not nearly as quiet or refined as expected. Breakfast is OK, although I stayed at another hotel in the area (Rumi Punku) and found my overall experience to be a lot more enjoyable. The staff at Casa Andina seemed not to communicate effectively between one another and were not very personable. Example, I requested a car service weeks in advance from the hotel back to the airport, and upon arrival to the airport did confirm with 2 separate front desk members about that pre-arrangement. The day of/time of return, said car was nowhere to be found and we had to wait an extra 25 minutes for another car to arrive. Shouldn't be a big deal, yet when traveling internationally small details like transit become very important. Not the best but not the worst hotel either.

I asked them to set me up for a ride from the airport to the hotel since it says they can on our website...well I have them my payment info and there was no cab available to pick us up when we arrived. Still charged though. Also the night we returned from the inca trail the front desk says they have no more rooms and would move us to their other cusco location. Umm it's nearly midnight and I've been up since 3am...and I prepaid for my room months ago to avoid this. Thanks though, no like I'm dead beat tired and have a flight in the crack if dawn or anything...
