First, Iquitos has litte or nothing to offer......other than noise, pollution, and animals on the street, so if you do not need to stay there then I would avoid it. If you are staying in Iquitos and just coming out of a jungle hike this place may look like paradise and it has a lot of potential. Clean rooms, nice... More

After spending some time in Iquitos, my friends and I just happened upon La Casa Fitzcarraldo and could not have been happier. After a couple of sweaty days in town, we were elated to find this beautiful hotel with an outdoor pool, beautiful grounds and lots of animal friends. The room was spacious, clean and modern- a nice change from... More

My wife and I just spent 5 amazing days in this private tropical jungle. Walter and the staff were very friendly and the sea food ceviche was incredible!

Iquitos is not for everybody, but we loved it. We stayed at La Casa Fitzcarraldo because I loved the Werner Herzog film that was made there. Be sure to see it before you go. If you arrive or leave by boat, it is not very far to the docks. The fun and crazy mototaxis are everywhere and can get you... More

Following positive reviews from Tripadvisor, we decided to stay here for two nights. We were not disappointed. Located about 15 mins away from the downtown of Iquitos, La Casa Fitzcarraldo was an oasis. Included in the price (~60 USD for a double room) was an excellent and filling breakfast, and hanging out in the beautiful compound of La Casa Fitzcarraldo... More

La Casa Fitzcarraldo is the place to stay in Iquitos. It's a great escape from the madness that is Iquitos. Not being in the centre of town is a bonus as you can escape the hustle and bustle but still easily access everything in very little time, by mototaxi. Walter (the owner) is very helpful, friendly and accommodating. The rooms... More

What a time. We stayed here on our way in and again on our way out from Iquitos. When we arrived we were hustled in off the plane around 8 at night. Walter sent a car to pick us up which was a big help. As we were driving down the main road we were a bit nervous looking around,... More

This place was anything but quiet. First, it's next door to a very noisy, street that likes to stay up and party all night. Garbage collectition on that street is questionable. I had difficulty sleeping. Secondly, the room to the Bungalow is not secure - anyone could easily break open the door with a screwdriver or credit card . It... More

Both Walter and the Casa Fitzcaraldo are a little eccentric but perfectly placed to counter the madness of Iquitos. Walter, interestingly was the producer for Fitcaraldo the movie and bought the hotel to house his stars and production crew. For Iquitos the hotel is a shining beacon of peace and tranquility. Everthing works in a fashion, and Walter and his... More
