A Wonderful Hotel We Kept Coming Back To in the heart of Cusco’s historic center
Pros:

This was our third stay at this wonderful hotel during our trip to Peru, as Cusco was the base for our excursions to Machu Picchu, Rainbow Mountain, and the Amazon.

The hotel is beautiful, elegant, and full of character, with stylish antique furniture that creates a unique atmosphere. We had the opportunity to stay in three different rooms, and each one was excellent. Some even featured a jacuzzi, which was especially relaxing after a long day of exploring.

The breakfast is delicious, with a wide variety of fresh and tasty options. What truly makes this hotel stand out, however, is its exceptionally kind and attentive staff, who always go out of their way to help.

We also greatly appreciated the hotel’s flexibility in storing our luggage between our stays, which made our travel arrangements much easier.

Without hesitation, we would stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cusco.

Impressionnant hôtel au centre de Cusco
Pros:

Magnifique hôtel, chambres spacieuses et luxueuses salles de bains.
L’emplacement est idéal, à 2 pas de la plaza de armas.
Le petit déjeuner est complet mais inconstant au niveau des extras (super le premier jour, rien de proposé le deuxième et de moins bonne qualité le dernier jour).

Cons:

Réception particulièrement impersonnelle, limite hautaine.

THE BEST OF ARANWA BOUTIQUE
Pros:

I stay three nights at this hotel. I was in Cusco to visit Machu Picchu, as well as several other a Incan sights. This hotel has it all. Close proximity to the city center, as well as excellent food and great hospitality. You get what you pay for at this establishment. I recommend it to anyone.

Fantastic location and very comfortable hotel
Pros:

We stayed 3 nights in a Deluxe room (including breakfast). Our room was spacious, quiet, very clean and comfortable. We ate at the hotel restaurant each night (although plenty of excellent restaurants very close by) . Service was very good and food excellent - plenty of variety. Breakfast buffet very good. Restaurant staff provided excellent service. Bartender very friendly. The only thing I will mention is that the men at reception were surly and not at all welcoming - luckily we didn't have cause to interact much with them. We would recommend this hotel for its location - just minutes walk to the main square, markets, Cathedrals etc.

Genuine Hospitality Meets Historic Beauty - Solo traveler
Pros:

If you appreciate elegance and exceptional attention to detail, Aranwa Cusco Boutique Hotel is an outstanding choice. The staff are incredibly courteous, attentive, and genuinely committed to providing excellent service—it’s clear they take great pride in their work.

I stayed for three nights before my trek and another three nights afterward. Returning to the hotel after 9 p.m. following five days of trekking, I was delighted to find that my luggage had already been placed in my room, making my arrival effortless. The hotel also kindly accommodated a late checkout, which I greatly appreciated.

Cons:

I hated having to leave...
