10/10 Exceptional

Loved this boutique hotel, the courtyard area was beautiful to relax in. There was a breakfast included from 6 am to 10 am which was great for our early morning starts and even when we left at 3 am for Machu Picchu the staff had a bagged breakfast waiting for us. They were always very helpful and polite, even the chef came out to help me take my luggage upstairs to the lobby because the altitude exhaustion is no joke! Luckily they always had coca leaf on hand. Would love to stay here again!

The staff is excellent! So friendly, they go above & beyond to take care of guests. The hotel is clean & comfy, as well as quiet. It’s a great location close to everything. I’m very picky about where I stay & I highly recommend this hotel in San Blas.

Amazing service, great location and comfortable facilities. We were a family of 4, and one fell ill to altitude sickness. The staff was incredibly helpful and provided oxygen to help the kid sleep at night, the breakfast was delicious and every time we needed something, staff was ready to provide it.

This place is in a great location in Cusco - close enough to things but far enough away to be peaceful. The outdoor area is beautiful, the rooms are nice, and the staff is incredibly accommodating! Bonus: they speak English :)

The location is great, away from the center but still within a walking distance. The staff is outstanding, very friendly and caring, ready to help with anything, even making good recommendations of where to go and how to get there. The hotel has several levels with stairs so you just need to be ready to go up and down for breakfast or go out. The rooms are very confortable and clean, with a lot of TV channels available and the bathroom and shower are roomy. Overall, a great choice!

Doesn’t have resturant or any other options to lunch or dinner, no service room. There are some closer options to eat, but close early, around 9:30pm. The breakfast included is pretty good

Good choice!

The hotel is nice and is within the heart area of San Blas. There is a store nearby and to find essentials. The breakfast buffet is fair enough. Special attention to Gerson and Karen for their support during our stay. They helped us a lot and giving all possible aid because of the altitude sickness. We are happy with the received services.

I left a higher review my 1st week here but my 2nd week here has been very different. Thus hotel is loud with people making noise most of the day & night. Other people staying here treat it like it’s all their party spot or their personal living room so now

San Blas hotel

We spent two days at this hotel at the start of our trip. We had planned to stay at a different hotel for the last portion of our trip in Cusco. We're so glad we only spent two days at Casa Andina Standard. The hotel itself was okay, but the room carpet was worn and looked dirty. The bathroom tub didn't have much padding beneath it and it felt like i would fall through. While I didn't like the room, the staff was great/helpful and the neighborhood is a good one.

Needs improvements

Recently stayed in several hotels in Peru in the same hotel category and price range. My observation is that for the price you pay, another chain ranks much higher than this one. Quite disappointed in some aspects with this hotel. Staff is fantastic. Great service, they really do seem to care. However: • In the reception area, you can only find coca tea. I believe they should also offer hot water and other types of tea such as Muña tea for those suffering altitude sickness but better to drink right before night time as it relaxes you. • No free water available in the rooms for brushing teeth. Must purchase it additionally. • Same blunt breakfast served as all other hotels in the same category. Could differentiate a bit by providing some local specialties and to change it a bit each day. I would highly recommend adding avocado which tastes really good in Peru to the menu. • Too many stairs, no lift in the section of the hotel that has 3 floors. This can be pretty hard to climb several times a day at this altitude. • Free wifi connection and speed is horrible. They offer a better quality wifi at a cost (€3 per day) which I found non acceptable for the price range of this hotel. • Not all rooms are equal. Some are great and look into the beautiful courtyard, and some don’t even have windows. Price should be different. • We were not informed that the hotel offers shuttle service to airport for $5 (found out by other reviewers). Would be good if guests were informed

Localização exelente, fica próximo a varios restaurantes, próximo a praça central, fizemos tudo a pé. Além de ter uma conveniencia e farmácia logo em frente. O quarto é limpo e acomoda de maneira aconchegante duas pessoas. Os funcionários foram todos incrivelmente gentis e prestativos, sem exceção, todos foram excelentes. O café da manhã é bem servido, e tem opção de tomar no pátio, que é bem charmoso. Também disponibilzam lanche ou entrada antecipada no café da manhã quando se tem passeios que saem antes do horario do mesmo, definitivamente voltaria se estiver novamente em Cusco

Hotel com boas instalações e equipe muito prestativa. Fica próximo ao Centro de Cusco, podendo ir facilmente a pé até la. Banheiro com tamanho excelente. Apenas o café da manhã que poderia melhorar, pois possui pouquíssimas opções e demoram muito a repor os itens (mesmo sendo poucos).

Conforto e ótimo custo benefício!

O hotel é novo, muito confortável e a cara de Cusco. Quartos espaçosos, tivemos um problema de falta de energia com o primeiro, mas resolveram muito rápido. Funcionários muito atenciosos, café da manhã bem completo e justo (e com um horário bom também). Ficamos depois de Machu Picchu nele também, deixamos algumas bagagens no hotel e, quando retornamos, elas já estavam no novo quarto. Note que o hotel fica em uma rua com subida, mas nada que atrapalhe a experiência. Fica pertinho da Plaza de Armas!
