This is a basic but excellent hostal 10m from the Plaza de Armas in Arquipa. I got a large room with abundant hot water in my shower. Breakfast was good but basic. The service was excellent, the staff was very friendly and really made an effort to answer my varied questions about the city, tours, etc...Location is great, literally 10m... More

10 seconds walk to the main squares, it's amazingly convenient! The place is clean and tidy and have the roof top balcony where you can sit there and relax. Room is clean and tidy with good hot shower. No hair dryer and I think the scent in the room was too strong (they probably did spray some air fresher or... More

I stayed at La Compania hostel twice while visiting Arequipa. It is by far the best hostel in Peru. The rooms are spacious and tastefully decorated. The towels and bedsheets are white and spotless. The atmosphere is peaceful and sophisticated. The service, breakfast, any assistance is superb. The manager and stuff are very friendly, helpful and they all speak English.... More

We were very impressed with Hostal La Compania. It is a very relaxed place right next to the Plaza de Armas. It is a hidden gem in a great location. We loved being so close to everything. We also loved our large, comfortable room. The bathroom in top condition was also a plus.

Very beautiful place, nice rooms, hot water and a great location. Breakfast wasn`t very good, but the rest of the hostel was great.

Found this place by its website (http://lacompaniahostal.com/moran/) and had no idea whether it would be good, but we loved it! It's on Moran just a block away from la Compania church. Our room was bright white, spacious, and sunny with reliable very hot water (although the shower curtain wasn't really long enough so it was impossible to shower without getting... More
