After reading the poor review of this hotel in Lonely Planet, we were pleasantly surprised to find this place charming, clean and in a decent location. We paid USD $38/night for a double including breakfast which we felt was an excellent value. PROS: -The staff bent over backward to make sure that our every need was attended to -Breakfast included... more

This was the most "normal" hotel we stayed at during our trip to Peru. It was also the only hotel with consistently hot water and good pressure, it was the best shower I had in two weeks! One of my main complaints about this place was we arranged a taxi through them from Ollantaytambo and the taxi they sent didn't... more

We stayed at Amaru II for 3 nts prior to our Inca Trail trek. Sure nice to see the little sign at the aiport with your name on it (they send a driver for p/u). We were welcomed with a smile and hot tea. We stored our bags while on the trail and they also arranged laundry service.( Drop by... more

My husband and I stayed at the Amaru II for a total of five nights, prior to and after completing the Inca Trail. While the hostal is tucked away in the San Blas area of the city and is a 10-15 minute uphill walk from the main plaza, we certainly wouldn't have wanted to stay closer to the centre as... more

Loved it!!

2 friends and I stayed at Amaru II for 5 days in January. I contacted them via e-mail prior to arriving in Peru and they were very quick to respond, and very polite and helpful. We had a driver pick us up at the airport which was included in the price. We stayed in two different triple rooms, both of... more

We stayed at this hostal in December and found the rooms to be cold and damp, with no natural light. There are rooms out the back which seem a little better though. The staff were very unpleasant, and even followed us for several blocks one day when we went out with our day packs. They thought we were trying to... more

Great Hostal

I had a very pleasant stay at Amaru II hostal. I contacted the property directly they confirmed my stay. I also booked the tours through them. The breakfast was good although they served the same thing each morning. The room was very clean. they had clean towels and soap every morning. the hostal is close to sanblas square where there... more

We stayed at the Amaru II in September 2008 for about 5 days and had no complaints. The staff was very attentive and helpful, from our initial communication via email before we arrived in Peru (arranging airport pick-up and so forth) to helping us hire a private driver for a day to see far flung sites around Cusco. Rooms were... more

Two weeks ago my friend and I stayed one night at this so over valued hostel, which turned to be the worst experience in Peru. First they took so long copying our document when we arrived so exhausted, then we asked if everything went well, they gave us a cold look and said: “that’s what the machine takes warming!” After... more
