Stayed for 2 nights. Arrived early and they let us into our room once it was cleaned at no extra cost. Nice gardens etc to relax in and watch out for the resident tortoise! Room itself fine, everything smelt clean. Around a 10 minute stroll to the main plaza, staff can help you with directions etc and there are drinks... More

We stayed here for 2 nights and had an amazing time, from the moment we arrived after our 11hour bus journey the receptionists treated us like family and organised our colca canyon trip and even booked our onward bus tickets to Puno. The rooms are fairly basic but you want to spend your time in the amazing central courtyard with... More

We spent 2 weeks at casa de avila and found the most helpful and charming stuff on our trip around the world. They make everything possible! The rooms are clean, the beds are good and it is a quiet place although it is only three blocks away from central plaza de armas (8 min by feet). There is a really... More

We stayed at La Casa de Avila the night before our trek, left our bags there during our trek and rented a room for the day we returned. All in all, our experience was very positive. The hotel is cute and clean. The rooms have nice showers, comfortable beds, tvs and free wifi. There is a great central garden area... More

Excellent staff - well-informed, professional, helpfull, pleasant, smiling and warm - that is what makes this hostel the place to stay while in Arequipa. They can suggest and arrange various tours for you and answer all your questions about the city. Another great advantage is the location.

This hostel is used as a school for cookery classes and spanish classes, and therefore is not like a traditional hostel and attracts a much older crowd. If you are looking for crazy nights and new travel companions, this is not the place for you. Its main attraction is its location, less than a 10 minute walk to the main... More

Lovely green area and lovely people, it's near the downtown. There's a lot of peace and they have really nice activities like Peruvian Cooking Expirience :) Loved it. Excellent service and a really nice view to the garden from the second floor. There's a really nice and beauty turtle which is called as Paca :D Nice expirience
