    beautiful garden
    comfortable loungers
    loose outlets

    What an absolute gem of a place! I loved relaxing in the beautiful garden area with its comfy loungers and stunning views. The cozy seating made it feel like home. The only hiccup was the outlets being a bit loose, which made charging my devices tricky, but it didn’t ruin my stay at all. 😄

    warm hospitality
    uphill walk

    The unique charm of El Balcon captivated us, especially the

    Beautiful courtyard and the serene ambiance. The attention to detail in the decor was excellent, and we appreciated the warm hospitality from the staff. The location was very convenient for exploring the sites, albeit it involved a bit of uphill walking.

    charming decor
    limited restaurant menu

    Charming stay with good touches

    We enjoyed a fine room with amazing views and charming decor. The staff were warm and cute, offering great tea service at any hour, and breakfast included a lovely variety.

    The restaurant menu was limited, and we found ourselves needing to venture out for dinner after one unsatisfactory meal. One early morning, loud neighbors interrupted our rest.

    delicious meals
    noise disturbances
    difficult location

    The meals in the restaurant were delicious and a full breakfast was provided.

    The noise from neighboring rooms was unbearable, especially early in the morning. I found myself waking up at 4 am more than once due to loud knocks and footsteps. The location, while beautiful, involved a significant uphill trek to get to the center of Cusco, which became exhausting quickly.

    noise
    billing

    The street noise was unbearable and my sleep was ruined. Quite inconsiderate from a hotel of this caliber. After I dealt with some serious billing issues, a complimentary breakfast would've been a nice touch, but I guess that's too much to ask. Almost thought of giving a decent review, but just couldn't.

    charming garden
    really good attention
    delicious options
    steep street
    limited privacy

    The charming garden created a serene atmosphere, complemented by the staff's really good attention and the comfortable dining area. Breakfast offered fresh local fruits and delicious options, making each morning good.

    The street leading up was steep.
