Hostal Los Balcones De Moral Y Santa Catalina Arequipa

Review by hotel critic

The spacious room, featuring a balcony with a view of the cathedral towers, offered a glimpse into the city's rich history—especially stunning at night. Potential guests should prepare for the chilly evenings, as there is no heating available, making woolen pajamas a worthwhile investment. While the accommodations lacked some luxuries—irregular hot water and limited toiletries were noted—the hotel staff provided commendable service. They assisted with luggage storage, allowing me to explore the area unencumbered, and were consistently helpful in answering queries. The complimentary breakfast met expectations, though the Wi-Fi left much to be desired. The location is genuinely ideal, just two blocks from the main plaza, ensuring easy access to restaurants and tour operators. For those prioritizing value over luxury, this hotel proves to be a suitable choice, offering essential amenities like 24-hour reception assistance. In summary, for trekkers and adventurers looking to explore further afield, this hotel provides a historical touch with a reasonable price, making it a practical step for budget-conscious travelers.
