El Balcón

This charmingly rustic property is located a short walk from Plaza de Armas. After being uncomfortably cold for several nights in another Cusco location even with a heater turned on, we were pleasantly surprised our room was so warm that the included heater wasn't even needed. The shower has amazing pressure and plenty of hot water. Breakfast included in the rate is far beyond expectations, as are amenities like thick robes and quality toilet paper. The English-speaking staff is so kind and helpful. Without hesitation we recommend El Balcon for those who enjoy staying in an authentic location that reflects the country's culture.

Breakfast was great, check-in went smoothly, clean room

El lloc d’esmorzar és molt maco i acollidor

Està mínimament apartat del centre

This is a beautiful hotel not far from the Plaza de Armas. The gardens and view of the city from the second floor are very special and the breakfast is excellent. Have stayed here on three separate trips and have had an excellent experience every time.

We travelled the region for three weeks, and El Balcón was our favourite hotel out of all the places we stayed. The staff really is something special and sets this place apart – we were always greeted with warm smiles, attentive service and help with all our needs. Our room (the family suite) was both charming and comfortable, and we appreciated the fact that there were heaters in the bedrooms as well as hot water in the shower. The location is also quite central, within walking distance of everything in the city centre. All in all: A wonderful stay, and great value for money!

Sehr freundliches Personal, leckeres Frühstück und sehr sauber, ein altes Gebäude mit besonderer Atmosphäre, abends werden im Hof Kerzen angezündet

Leider sehr laut, da viel Verkehr durch die kleine Gasse geht, kaum Steckdosen im Zimmer,

Stanze bellissime, miglior colazione del viaggio, personale disponibile, miglior posizione a Cusco

Migliorabile la doccia

This was a quaint, well kept, Peruvian style place with helpful staff. Restaurant was really good but limited. Was a good value! Would stay again.

Staff went above and beyond during our stay. It felt like staying in an upscale hotel!
