Amaru Colonial

This is a quaint and comfortable property in the hills of San Blas. We had a nice view over the city and the mountains from our room. The breakfast staff were lovely , great choice for breakfast. Location was good, but it is in the hills. The climb back from Plaza des Armes on the first day proved to be a bit challenging as we adjusted to the elevation. Grateful for the easy access to Coca and Muna tea.

The rooms are only heated for a few hours in the evening so the rooms are cold especially in the mornings. Rooms are on the small side - difficult to find a spot for two med sized bags.

Great location, everything is walking distance. Beautiful intimate hotel. Breakfast was good. Gorgeous view from the balcony, lovely staff.

Room was nice but small, would have loved a small table with 2 chairs.

We had a great stay at Amaru Colonial. The location was perfect, only a 5-10 minute walk into the central square of Cusco, and the staff were always very helpful. There were a couple of times when we needed somewhere to store our luggage, for example for our two day trip to Machu Picchu, and they were happy to store them for us. We stayed in a few different rooms throughout our trip to Peru and they were always clean and well stocked. Breakfast also provided everything you’d need.

No complaints!

Fantastic stay at Amaru Colonial! The drop-off area can be a little tight for Ubers, but the location itself is great and the views are beautiful. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We especially appreciated having a heater in the room since it was quite cold outside, and the consistently hot water felt amazing after coming back from our trek. The entire property was very clean, and breakfast was delightful. One thing to be aware of is that there are quite a few stairs throughout the property, so be prepared for that, especially if you have heavy luggage or mobility concerns. We only stayed for one night, but it was such a comfortable and pleasant stay. I would highly recommend Amaru Colonial!
