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.

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.

Very kind staff and excellent location. Great breakfast. This is an old building with a central courtyard. Rooms are not sound proof so bring your earplugs. We stayed 2 different times and some mattresses were great, others not so much. For the price, it was worth it.

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!

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 😀 .

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.
