Guest Reviews
- Florian (8/5): -
- Sofialde (9/5): - El hotel es precioso, es una casona antigua habilitada como hotel, con mucho encanto. El personal fue muy amable, la habitación era muy grande, cómoda y limpia. El desayuno estaba muy bueno. La ubicación estupenda, cerca del centro.
- Raphaël (8/5): -
- FRANCO (8/5): - HOTEL IN DIMORA STORICA VICINO A PIAZZA DELLA CATTEDRALE STAFF DISPONIBILISSIMO OTTIMA COLAZIONE E SERVIZI NULLA
- Robert (10/5): - Schönes Hotel mit freundlichem Personal, guter Ausstattung, leckerem Frühstück und einem guten Preis-Leistungsverhältnis Das Hotel liegt fußläufig wenige Minuten vom Stadtzentrum, die Straßen, die zum Zentrum führen sind nachts nicht so schön
- Mattia (10/5): - Tutto perfetto, staff molto gentile e colazioni gustose. Stanza molto pulita e bella.
- Ramiro José Manuel (10/5): Si que vale la pena - La estancia y saber que todo estaba muy bonito y hermoso
- Janiana (10/5): Encantadora - A acomodação é excelente, muito confortável, bem limpa, e muito bem localizado. Amamos! Foi tudo ótimo!
- Henrry Luis (5/5): -
- Caroline (8/5): Stay in a manor! - The building is magnificent. The room was a good size. The staff were so attentive and kind. The breakfast was just perfect. Our room was right on the street and was very noisy most of the time but earplugs fixed the issue!
- Emma (7/5): Beautiful hotel, noisy street - Staff was really friendly and accomodating, the house is charming We had to switch to a smaller room as the noise from honking cars woke us before 5 in our first room, but the second room wasn’t much better…
- Angeles (7/5): - Desayuno no es bufet pero si está bien. Buena ubicación a unos 10 minutos del centro andando. No me gustó que se escuchara todo el ruido de la calle. La ducha no tenia temperatura intermedia.
- Virginia (10/5): - Great hotel. The service and cleaning is exceptional! The staff is super helpful!
- Johann (8/5): -
- Laura Marta (8/5): - El hotel es muy bonito, en una villa antigua. La posición está súper bien, a 10 minutos andando del centro. Los recepcionistas son super amables, fueron super disponibles con nosotros. Son muy detallistas. El desayuno estuvo súper bien, incluso nos lo prepararon para llevar un día que teníamos que salir temprano. Las camas comodísimas, tanto los colchones como los cojines. Las ventanas no son herméticas, por lo tanto hay tanto ruido de los coches que pasan fuera y que van pitando todo el rato, que es como si la ventana estuviera abierta. Hay que ponerse tapones, si no es imposible dormir. También las cortinas son muy claritas, en cuanto sale el sol, la habitación está completamente iluminada. La ducha está regular, ya que echa el agua hirviendo, o congelada, no se puede regular.

- Silvia (10/5): Estancia perfecta en Arequipa - Es una casa de época bien restaurada y cómoda! Los desayunos muy buenos. El personal siempre atento. Te preparan desayuno si tienes que salir pronto de excursión. Habitación muy bonita, colchón y almohadas cómodas! Sábanas suaves. La zona tranquila de noche., residencial. Fácil llegar al centro dando un paseo de 15’
- Mohamed (7/5): -
- Chlo4 (9/5): Super contente - Tout était parfait, cet hôtel est vraiment très beau et agréable pour séjourner. Vraiment rien à dire
- Sandra (10/5): -
- Camilla (10/5): - Everything was cured in every details. Breakfast was great and the room was very clean with comfortable beds. It was quite cold during the night. Woud recommed to consider installing some heat!
- Carole (9/5): Sehr angenehm. - Sehr gutes Preis—/ Leistungsverhältnis, saubere Zimmer, schönes Haus, sehr freundliches Personal.
- Lisa (8/5): - The facility is quite lovely. The staff is accommodating. I appreciate the little touches like the bottle of water and the chocolate. It is a little bit far from the plaza.
- Nadezda (7/5): Good - The building is an old Spanish villa, full of character. The hotel is very old needs some renovation.
- Jason (8/5): Lovely hotel in a great location - Felt like a classic home. There was a shared terrace and living room. The staff and owners were friendly and the location was convenient. Our room had lots of natural light and a very comfortable bed. Traffic noise could be an issue but it never kept me from sleeping.
- Sara (9/5): Superb -
- Lisa (10/5): Highly recommend this historic accommodation - Four night stay in April. Friendly attentive staff; delicious breakfast that included fruit or yoghurt, fresh juice, eggs to order, and variety of breads; comfortable beds with plenty of blankets for chilly nights. All in a lovely old converted mansion in a pleasant shaded area of the city just a 10 min walk to the center. There are also some excellent restaurants within a few blocks of the hotel.
- Allister (10/5): Great hotel for a few nights in Arequipa - Lovely old colonial building with a very friendly staff in a great location.Extremely clean and tidy with a good breakfast All good
- Jorge (10/5): Wonderful - Great location, clean and friendly staff. Nothing
- Jorge (10/5): Very nice - Their quality Kitchen closed to guests
- Elena (7/5): Not bad, not good - The hotel is walking distance from the historic center The hotel is next to a busy street and there is a lot of noise which was quite annoying. The showerhead was damaged therefore having a shower was a bit challenging. Most of the staff didn’t speak a word of English which made the communication very difficult
- Emily (9/5): Superb - Nice hotel within a short walk to the main square. The room was nice and the beds were comfortable. They have secure parking for a small fee. We had to change dates multiple times and the staff were very understanding and accommodating. The breakfast was good. Nothing
- Diana (10/5): Exceptional - What a gem of a place to stay. Loved the historical building. We were able to walk to the historical centre. Staff were amazing and really helpful. Our room was cleaned daily. Breakfast included fruit or yogurt, eggs cooked to your preference, toast, bread, cake tea or coffee and fresh juice. I highly recommend this hotel. Nothing. It was perfect.
- James (10/5): Exceptional -
- Claudia (9/5): Superb - Very nice old house with extremely helpful staff. Rooms with outside windows on upper floors are the best. Make sure you don't get the room behind the recption, with "window" only to the reception desk. .
- Cassandra (10/5): Exceptional - The staff were very helpful and friendly. The hotel is beautiful and only a short walking distance from the main square. Our room was comfortable, the shower had good pressure and was hot. It would have been nice to have some vegan options at breakfast (E.g avocado on toast or cereal).
- Tracey (9/5): Enjoyable stay, nice staff, good breakfast - Good location. A small walk into town but not too far
Great staff
Nice, simple breakfast Liked most things except I had some early tours and it was a while before the person on duty came to the desk to let me out. Luckily I was there in plenty of time and my tours were both late but if they’d come on time it could have been an issue.
Road traffic notice is really loud, cars honking, braking etc and there is no sound proofing. Very loud in mornings and afternoons. I can sleep through most things and block most noise out but if you can’t, then choose somewhere else.
- Верон (10/5): The best place in Arequipa - The perfect place. We would give them 11 out of 10 😊
The building itself is historical, staff is supernice - they gave us anything what we had asked, helped with everything, cleaned the room each day despite we didn't ask them. Big and tasty breakfast.
Just perfect! Thanks a lot. Nothing
- Rob (10/5): Mooi hotel, geweldige service - Fantastisch hotel, gerund door een Peruaanse familie. Echte aanrader. Goed gelegen, en gevestigd in een mooi historisch koloniaal huis. De service tijdens ons verblijf was uitmuntend. We hebben dat op een bijzondere manier mogen ervaren. Zeer vriendelijk en gastvrij, en veel extra hulp toen mijn vrouw ziek werd. Nog zeer veel dank daarvoor! We hopen nog eens terug te komen naar Arequipa. We zullen dan zeker weer een kamer boeken bij El Balcon.
