I loved my stay at the hostel, the kindness of everyone who served us, Julio and Antoni, and the food at the restaurant. Thank you! It was one of the best times in Cusco. And Alex was very friendly at the bar.

The location is good, just a few minutes walk you get to the plaza. The dorm room is nice and clean. There is a small kitchen that can be used, which is great for a long-term stay. The owner/manager, he is super nice to welcome every traveler. I can not speak Spanish, for me it is a bit difficult to communicate with locals, and he, and is his staff is really friendly to help me with assistance. One night I was sitting outside using my laptop under cold temperatures, the owner asked me I could go indoor cuz it was cold. I told him that it should be fine, then in the next 5 minutes his staff delivered a blanket to me! (How touching it was!)

We loved our stay with Romulo and Helga (and their cute pets). When we arrived from a night bus, they welcomed us straight into the kitchen and made us a delicious (complimentary) breakfast. So kind. Our room wasn’t quite ready but they allowed us to shower and rest in another room until it was - this was much before the check in time so we were really grateful for this too. The house is a little out of town but we really liked that about it. It seems far in a taxi (only 10-15 soles though) but walking the Inca trail only takes about 15-20 minutes. The house is right next to Inca ruins and Romulo took us on a walk to show us the main sights, he also gave us so much information about the local area. Helga and Romulo make a great breakfast and they put a hot water bottle in our bed every evening. Also, my laptop broke whilst I was there and they got me in touch with someone to fix it. They are wonderful hosts and we would more than happily stay here again.

Yani and her family are wonderful hosts. Very helpful and friendly. They speak good English. The room is very inviting and comfortable. At nighttime it's very quiet. I loved the hot showers! Bathroom was only shared with 1 more room. Some may prefer to stay right in the city center of Cusco, I actually liked to be a few minutes away from it.

had a wonderful stay at Casa Terra. The accommodation is extremely well maintained and beautifully set within restored historic walls right in the center of Cusco. I could walk everywhere which made exploring the city very easy. The check in process was flexible and smooth, and I received many excellent local recommendations that made my stay even better. The hosts were exceptionally attentive and friendly. They took real time to help with every question and made me feel genuinely welcomed. Casa Terra is a place with great character, comfort and warm hospitality. I would happily stay here again and can recommend it without hesitation.

One of the best hostel where we stayed in Peru. Position is perfect, less than 10 minutes from the main square and 2 minutes from the main market. The host Josè was very kind and super friendly, he makes the difference and makes you feel to be in a family. Breakfast is good and we met a lot of interesting people from different countries. Rooms are clean and there is also a common room for watching tv. Finally there is the possibility to store baggage for free.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
