My wife and I stayed at the Buena Vista Hostal, in Cusco, from about the 16 June to 3 July, 2012 and found it very friendly and comfortable, although the rooms are cold during the cool months. We stayed in room 11 for a few days then moved to room 5, which is supposed to be the best room. It... More

Cusco is quite a noisy town that has to struggle with pollution which bothered me a lot, especially after coming back from the peaceful and quiet sacred valley. so Buena Vista is the perfect "hide away" in a very quiet part of Cusco. I stayed in room no. 13 which used to be the owners appartement, two big rooms and... More

We stayed at Buena Vista for one night as part of our Intrepid Inca Express Tour. The place is clean and quaint. The staff was pleasant and courteous, always willing to help. Rooms were spacious and well-ventilated, but can get cold at night. There is a nice patio for breakfast and just to hang out. Coca leaves are available. Hot... More

Was booked here as part of an Intrepid Travel Inca Trail Express package for 1 night before/ 1 night after the trek. Because we wanted longer acclimatization time, we also decided to stay 1 extra night here before our 10AM orientation meeting the next day and after spending 2 nights in Sacred Valley (at Green House, awesome place!). First, I... More

I just loved it here. It really felt comfortable just lounging around, there has been great attention to detail, really artistic, great views... I had a cheaper room and shared a bathroom, but it was worth it... great breakfast too..

We stayed here a couple if nights in June. Hot water although when there were a few showers at once the pressure was average and the water was hot and cold. We had a small heater in our room so we were very comfortable although others were colder. Make sure you ask for a heater. Decent breakfast with a bit... More

A fantastic place to settle while visiting Cusco. Nice rooms, friendly staff, fair prices and a terrific atmosphere. Highly recommend this hostal, the best in Cusco.

I recently returned from Cusco and stayed at this hotel for two out of the five nights. I was not all that satisfied with the not so friendly staff, the noisy unappealing rooms (dogs and people in the reception area creating most of the noise). After two nights, I ended up moving to the La Casa Escondida 100m up the... More
