The room and bathroom were spacious. First morning, we enjoyed a buffet style breakfast. Second morning, we ordered from their menu. The natural fruit juice and the crepe made with quinoa was delicious!

This is the best hotel we stayed at during our trip to Peru. Super location!!! Super building with a lot of character and super staff!!! We had to leave one day at 2:50 am and as we were exiting, a gentleman at the counter saw us leaving and asked us to wait a couple of minutes. He returned with two bags for breakfast to go. This was a great touch! Highly recommended to anyone looking for a great place to stay, right at the center of Arequipa.

Great hotel in the center of Arequipa! Rooms are clean, beds are comfortable, and breakfast was great! The staff was outstanding! Everyone that I interacted with knew some English, and was eager to help with anything from recommendations of activities and restaurants to a corkscrew and glasses so we could enjoy a bottle of wine in the courtyard after a day out on the town. And the rates were very reasonable for what you get!

An oasis in the middle of city center!

We loves staying here. The presidential suite was amazing with all the amenities. The staff went above and beyond with serivices. The whole city had water crisis for 3 days but they made sure the guests had water to shower. They even prepared to go breakfast when we had an early departure. And the breakfast was so gourmet. I would definitely recommend staying here

I really enjoyed staying in this hotel. It’s very clean and safe, and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. The design of the hotel is very unique and authentic. Front desk was very helpful with all our needs. The location of the hotel is superb, walkable distance to the heart of Arequipa. I can’t be more grateful for the experience my partner and I had during our stay. Thank you for being so welcoming and friendly to us!

Our stay at Los Tambos Colonial was perfect. Every member of the team was helpful and attentive and communication with them during booking was excellent. Nothing was too much trouble, including arranging taxis and breakfast boxes due to an early start one morning. We recommend Los Tambos Colonial without hesitation.

Great hotel.

Wonderful place in a great location. Very walkable. We did request 3 doubles. And we got 3 rooms with 3 beds each. Would’ve liked the extra space instead but it works! Staff spoke English fantastic. They were very helpful too.

Very cool colonial style building with updated rooms. Nice breakfast included. Very clean. Staff is very helpful. Rooms are comfortable. Only complaints are that it is you can hear all the noise from the hallways and bathrooms back up to another bathroom with a wall and window so that you hear everything that is happening in the adjoining bathroom.

They charged me for the night I ve already paid online when I arrived. So I paid twice. When I asked the guy who checked me in to cancel it he told me it was not possible. I will never come back here.
