The rooms and facilities here are of a good standard for a hotel. Reception staff is distant and check in may seem cumbersome - but the rooms are really nice and the bathrooms are of good quality. Careful if you have a room out back - you might have the music of the clubs of the neighborhood in your room.... More

We were extremely disappointed at this hotel. The staff were unfriendly and not very helpful. You have to pay for botled water (have not had to do this anywhere else)! The breakfast was poor (the worst coffee we had on a 5 weeks trip in 3 countries - very stewed). The staff were often surly and almost always unsmiling. Our... More

The location and staff of this hotel was great. It is right next to the monastery. Close to plaza de Armas. The rooms where nothing special, they are clean and have hot water and for $60 a night it is well worth it. I would not pay more.

We woulden't go back, the staff and the front desk...I was expecting something different, I only like the main square and the colonial look of the entrance and the lobby. Average hotel? I don't think so.

A wonderful hotel - slap bang opposite the Monastry Beautiful grounds and superb views from the hotel over the city Nice breakfast Slight problem with discos/pubs in the vicinity which went on until 4 am the first night and 5 am the second - not hugely loud but just enough to slighlty disturb sleep

Truly one of the prettiest and most unique hotel's in Arequipa at an affordable price. The entrance, the lobby area and the dining room really portrayed the monastery and colonial look and feel I was expecting. Sometimes you are bought by hotel pictures and when you arrive nothing looks like it. This was not the case with Hotel Posada Monasterio:... More

We stayed at this hotel twice - either side of a trip to Colca canyon. On both occasions we were given rooms in the central section near to the lifts. It may be that the rooms are in better condition in other parts of the hotel but both these rooms were in need of a good clean up.The first room... More

This hotel is in an excellent position and has some very good restaurants within a short walk. The entrance courtyard is charming and there is also a small internal garden. Although the bedroom was on the small side it was clean, comfortable and the shower had good pressure. We had no trouble with noise and did manage to get wi-fi... More

We stayed twice, before and after visiting the Colca Canyon. Best to request room on top floor; very nice views of the city. Nice breakfast. Wi-fi works only in lobby. Also have 2 computers for guest usage. Very nice location--a couple of blocks from the Plaza de Armas and across the street from the Monestary de St. Catherine. We'd stay... More
