Cabin with fireplace and spectacular view
Vascos cabin was one of the most beautiful places I've stayed. It had a view of the entire city since it was at the top of the hill but also a close walk to markets, restaurants, and cafes. The fireplace also kept us cozy at night! Also, one thing to note, since Cusco is at high elevation, we were out of breath the first night walking to the house, but that's just part of the experience!

Casa Maruri, Loft in Cusco's historic downtown
Paul and his wife Liz are very kind and nice people, they greeted us personally. The place is just like the photos, warm and more with the powerful heating. Shower with hot water, everything was very clean. It is only one block from the main square and Korikancha is the same distance away. The place is excellent for getting to know the entire historic center of Cusco. There are restaurants, shops, pharmacies, within walking distance. With a great value for money, it's the best choice. I'd go back without a doubt.

Luxury Triplex Penthouse with an Incredible View and a Barbecue Grill
Reyna was an excellent host, we arrived at the apartment at 2am and she answered the phone despite it being early morning and she was attentive to us, I'm sure I'll return to Cusco and I'll return to that apartment. Thank you very much Reyna for your hospitality

Panaqa wasi C2 cabaña simple
I loved my stay here! Anahi and Antonio (and their cute little pup) are super friendly and made me feel right at home. The room is comfortable and quiet, and the shower has hot water. The neighborhood is great, an easy walk to all the main tourist spots and near some beautiful parks overlooking the city. The shared spaces have everything you need and the kitchen has a beautiful view. I'd definitely stay here again the next time I'm in Cusco.

Cozy with a beautiful view 503
Excellent apartment! I stayed with Magdalena, my partner, for 3 nights. Luis is friendly, reliable and attentive to answering all our questions. The space was spacious, comfortable, with a beautiful Cusco design. Equipped with everything you need. Near the Real Plaza, a mall that we used the first few days to stock up since we prepared our own breakfasts and snacks. Close to the Avenida de la Cultura, the main street, and quite attractive for touring and getting to know Cusco. We walked about 45 minutes to the historic center, passing by the UNSAAC, hospitals, schools, restaurants, etc. We also used the Buses that for S/1 leave you in the historic center. Finally, we used taxis for S/7 (bargain) or Uber for S/10 approx. The only thing to note is that the apartment is on the top floor above a gym, and music classes start at 6am during the week and they play loud music, but it's a detail that doesn't affect my rating with Luis

Casa Arcoiris I Lovely apartment magnificent view!
Paula's place was beautiful! The primary bedroom, living space and views were wonderful. Bathrooms were well done and kitchen was nice (with access to filtered water). We also loved having the fireplace (it was a bit chilly, so much needed). It is located at the top of a hill, but that wouldn't prevent me from booking (I supposed you can always taxi back as needed). We had two teenagers with us, and there are two beds downstairs. One is a couch and wasn't super comfortable. With that said, it was nice for them to have their own space. Overall a great stay in a beautiful, well-located home!

Beautiful Townhouse and garden in historic center
Excellent place to stay when traveling in Cusco! Very central, lots of space inside, and they even light a fire for you each night. Had a wonderful stay.

Cozy with balcony in Cusco 502
Very cozy apartment with all you need for a nice stay in Cusco. It’s not very close to the central plaza, but the Uber to the centre is 10-12 Soles, so that’s not a problem. An advantage is the Plaza Real shopping centre which is a 12 min walk. Yaqueline is very nice and helpful!
