Probably one of the best hotels in Arequipa
Pros:

An amazing hotel all around. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, especially Alexandria and Emily. They even offered to bring us breakfast when it was closing and we couldn't go. Patient with my Español too.

The room was great, I can't think of anything to improve on which is hard to find these days. Very hot water, good lighting, a comfy and big bed, a desk for working, and the hot tub was fantastic.

The outside areas are beautiful, they have two gardens inside the hotel with seating to enjoy. As I worked from the hotel, I used them to eat which was a nice break from the hotel room. Everything was spotless.

The surrounding area is also very nice and modern, there's a large beautiful park nearby with llamas. Ubers arrive in less than 10 minutes.

Cons:

Nothing.

A bit spartan. Clean, well-priced, well-located.
Pros:

The hotel arranged a transfer from the airport for my 6:30 AM arrival. I had been traveling for 24 hours and it was great to go directly to my room and get a little shut-eye. It was a garden room which, later on, meant that it was noisy because there was a day-long meeting going on in the Garden. But I got several hours' sleep before the decibel level went up so I was able to use the day to sight-see. The noise didn't really bother me until late afternoon, when I returned and tried to take another nap. The staff was most accommodating in giving me tips for getting about and in arranging a cab to the airport the next morning. The wifi did not reach to my room ( a circumstance not that unusual in Peruvian hotels, I learned). It's a bit spartan, but it's a f placeine for someone on a budget.
