Nice hotel in the center of the city
Pros:

We had a very pleasant stay at Hotel Los Tambos Colonial in Arequipa. The hotel is perfectly located in the heart of the city, just a 5-minute walk from Plaza de Armas, making it an excellent base for exploring the historic center.

The rooms are on the smaller side, but they are very clean and feature large, comfortable beds that ensured a good night’s sleep. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with any questions or requests.

One of the highlights was the breakfast. Rather than a buffet, breakfast is made to order from an à la carte menu, allowing you to choose exactly what you would like each morning. On the days we had very early tours and activities, the hotel thoughtfully prepared breakfast bags for us to take along, which was greatly appreciated.

We also appreciated the complimentary coffee, tea, and coca tea available at two stations throughout the hotel, as well as the drinking water stations, which were very convenient.

Overall, a clean, comfortable, and well-located hotel with excellent service and thoughtful touches. We would happily stay here again when visiting Arequipa.

Cons:

The only minor drawback was that the bathroom windows face the neighboring rooms’ windows, so sound can carry between bathrooms. However, we did not find this particularly disturbing during our stay.

Pros:

1. 櫃檯人員可以英文溝通,會用地圖指引餐廳、夕陽觀景點、換匯所等資訊
2. 早餐是點餐式,包含熱飲、果汁、麵包、主餐(有七種選擇),女生吃完很有飽足感
3. 公共空間乾淨整潔,前庭、後院都漂亮舒適
4. 浴室熱水要等1-2分鐘但水量充足,洗手台也可以調熱水(冷水非常冰)
5. 房間內的迎賓小點就是有名的阿雷基帕巧克力

Cons:

1. 房間提供小罐二合一的洗髮潤髮乳及一小顆肥皂(我喜歡大罐固定在牆上那種),洗髮乳不太容易起泡
2. 飯店內沒有電梯,可能跟老建築有關
3. 早上約6-7點開始會有人員移動、開關門、使用對講機的聲音,傳到房間裡非常響亮
4. 房間內沒有空調但6月住宿時沒有感覺寒冷或悶熱

Pros:

Great location on a main street close to the Plaza to Armas but set back so quiet. Allowed to check.in early after a night bus in return for a TripAdvisor review

Cons:

Communal hallway/ central building was beautiful but extension where the rooms were situated was fairly generic.
Breakfast was limited, ie had to make a special request to have fruit & eggs.
