Hotel Casona Solar

Beautiful restored historic building. Great location. Nice in-house breakfast. Allowed early check in but charged almost full rate for it.

No air ventilation into room only via bathroom which opened onto courtyard and had no privacy. (we may have been unlucky with room allocated to us) We had read numerous reviews on how friendly the staff were. We found them uncharacteristically unfriendly for Peru. The boxed takeaway breakfast we were given had stale mouldy sandwich provided and had to be thrown out.

Most comfortable, clean and beautiful hotel. The bed is amazing and the garden an oasis of peace in the exciting, but hectic city of Arequipa. Breakfast ist excellent and the staff very friendly. Especially the Dutch owner had many stories to tell about the history of the building and the country of Peru. Not to forget the valuable inside travel advice for our next days towards colca and Pino.

Slightly pricy for my standards, but the hotel backs it up!

Beautiful Hotel, even better than on the pictures

Struttura storica, molto accogliente e ben curata. Il giardino e gli spazi comuni sono una piacevolissima isola felice in cui rilassarsi. La camera è stata davvero molto apprezzata, con i suoi interni in pietra sillar, il materiale tipico della zona. La signora che gestisce la struttura è stata sempre cortese e disponibile nella soddisfare le nostre richieste.

Nulla.

El personal muy bueno y atento, la habitación estaba muy limpia y comoda

Hotel Casona Solar is a beautifully preserved historic property, with ashlar‑stone walls, vaulted ceilings, and impressive doors leading to two stunning courtyards. It was once a house owned by a notable Peruvian president, and it still exudes old‑world grandeur. The hotel is perfectly located, just a few minutes' walk from the center of Arequipa. We booked the mini apartment that had a small kitchenette, a large king size bed and a double. This is a gem of a hotel and we loved staying here. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. There was Wi-Fi and breakfast included. The entrance is a street‑front doorway with camera monitoring, so staff can see who’s at the door. It felt very secure. Highly recommend a stay at this hotel if you are in Arequipa. We enjoyed every moment here and would absolutely stay again.
