Important information:

Please note: LOCATION
We are in San Blas neighborhood, the main artisan and touristic place in Cusco, San Blas is a hill in the city, people use steps up and down, narrow streets around, as you can read in our comments and reviews. physical effort is needed(medium to high), specially to return to the accommodations.
Casa Mirador is located at the upper part of San Blas, the reason of the panoramic and great views of Cusco; from our accommodations to San Blas' church takes 4 minutes walking (steps down), the return takes longer due deepness and the steps up.
From San Blas' church to the main square of Cusco takes 7-9 minutes walking
The distance between the accommodations and the main square of Cusco is 800-2789 feet.
Taxis will not be able to get the guests to our main door, however we always send information suggesting where to get (there is taxi stop behind the accommodations from here you just walk 1 minute steps down to get to the main door) here to avoid the steps up on your first day, especially if you have luggage.Please inform of your expected arrival time in advance. You can use the Special Requests box when booking, or contact the property directly using the contact details in your confirmation.
A deposit may be required at the property.

Pros:

O Carlos foi simplesmente perfeito , um anfitrião excepcional. Nos ajudou com as malas, com dicas e ainda guardou nossas malas após o checkout. As instalações são confortáveis e o único ponto de atenção é que são muitas escadas então para quem tem problema de locomoção seria difícil. Fora isso , a vista é espetacular , não temos o que reclamar dos nossos dias na instalação.

Lovely place, lovely owner
Pros:

The owner was very helpful and welcoming. The room was lovely (Queen with balcony), very spacious and the bed was comfortable with lots of warm blankets. The shower was nice and hot. The location is up the hill but so are a lot of things in Cusco, get used to it. Also it’s in a very cute neighbourhood and is close to the archaeological sites in Cusco.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

The host was incredibly friendly and very helpful and the room was super nice!

Cons:

It is stated in the description but the accomodation is very high up and quite far from the center. Combined with the altitude, if you are not used to it like us, it can be quite challenging going up there a couple of times a day…

Delusione totale. Salviamo solo cordialità dello staff
Pros:

Solo la cordialità dell'host

Cons:

Non mi è piaciuto nulla.
Siamo scappati dopo la prima notte.
Per raggiungere la struttura devi fare tante scale ed è molto scomodo con le valigie.
La casa si trova su una strada chiusa e solo pedonale quindi o dall'alto o dal basso devi caricarti da solo le valigie.
Inoltre trovi tanti rifiuti e cani randagi che ti abbiano lungo il cammino, se sei a piedi come lo siamo stati noi.
Stanza mini. Bagno pure e poco puliti.
Cucina in condivisione molto sporca.

L’hôtel est très bien situé, dans le quartier san blas ce qui offre un beau point de vu depuis le rooftop ! Merci pour la gentillesse de Carlos, il nous a soigneusement gardé nos affaires dès que nous avions besoin, il est très réactif et nous a toujours arrangé ! On se sent comme à la maison à Casa Mirador, les chambres et les espaces communs sont très agréables, on recommande à 100% !

Great place to stay, would recommend
Pros:

The host Carlos was very approachable, he was also fluent in English which was very helpful. The room itself was comfortable but quite cold at night with no heaters; the bed itself was warm however and there were multiple quilts available. There was complimentary tea (including coca tea) provided in the lobby and there are common areas for guests to sit down and socialise, with a nice homely atmosphere. There is also a beautiful view of the Cusco skyline from the common area.

Cons:

The showers were a bit inconsistent especially with hot water – water pressure was not the strongest, and sometimes the hot water would cut out halfway and take a few mins to return. Location was convenient – the main square was about 15 mins walk away – but there were a lot of stairs going up and down to the property, which might be difficult for those with mobility issues.

Cusco
Pros:

Trotz der vielen Treppen bis zum Guesthouse und der ausschließlich vorhandenen Treppen im Haus hat sich der Aufstieg absolut gelohnt. Der Ausblick über Cusco ist einfach traumhaft – sowohl vom Balkon als auch von der wunderschönen Dachterrasse.

Das Guesthouse hat viel Charme und eine tolle Atmosphäre. Die Ausstattung lässt keine Wünsche offen: Es gibt eine heiße Dusche, einen Föhn und alles, was man für einen angenehmen Aufenthalt braucht.

Besonders hervorheben möchte ich den Gastgeber. Er war jederzeit erreichbar, sehr hilfsbereit und hat sich hervorragend um alle Anliegen gekümmert.

Ich kann dieses Guesthouse uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen – vor allem für alle, die den fantastischen Ausblick und das besondere Flair zu schätzen wissen.

Pros:

The view from this hotel is absolutely breathtaking and worth every step of the climb. Waking up to such a beautiful panorama of Cusco was one of the highlights of my trip.

The room was comfortable, there was always hot water, and despite the cool nights, I was never cold thanks to the warm blankets provided.

What really made the experience special was the owner. He contacted me before arrival, gave clear instructions on the best way to get there, and was always available to help with any questions. Exceptional hospitality!

The hotel offers excellent value for money, and I would happily stay here again. Just keep in mind that you’ll need to walk up some stairs to reach it, but the incredible view makes it 100% worth it.

Cons:

Nothing

Blissful Stay
Pros:

Carlos was an amazing host from start to finish. He assisted me with getting a taxi from the airport and helping with luggage storage when I went to Machu Picchu which was a big weight off my shoulders. His property also boasted amazing views of the city center which was absolutely magical.

Pros:

Bardzo ładny widok z balkonu. Kontaktowy, pomocny właściciel. W pokoju było bardzo zimno, ale jak zgłosiliśmy to właścicielowi to zaoferował nam w grzejnik. Co było dużym plusem. W pokoju czekał na nas termos z gorącą wodą.

Cons:

Dojście do hostelu jest wyczerpujące, dużo schodów.

Pros:

El lugar, su vista increíble. El anfitrión muy amable y atento..

Cons:

Las escalera, pero la verdad que el anfitrión super atento para el ingreso y salida me ayudo con equipaje. Porque si vas sola con el equipaje es difícil llegar todo por escalera.
