Top Characato Hotel Reviews

Los Tambos - Colonial

10/10 Excellent

"Very good breakfast, clean and friendly staff. Also centric location."

ARIQUEPAY HOTEL

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, very good breakfast and the rooftop bar is perfect ! Rooms are great too, comfortable bed and the staff was so sweet packing us a lunch and arranging airport transportation at 5 am. One thing to note is there is no AC- depending on time of year may not be an issue. I assume some rooms have windows so that would have been helpful. You can leave the top of your door open but then the noise is a bit much if you are trying to sleep early. Still a great spot I’d recommend !"

Tierra Viva Arequipa Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel with ample rooms, impeccably clean, great staff who was extremely helpful and professional. Perfect location, quiet but close to everything, so you can't lose staying in this hotel. Definitely recommend!"

Katari Hotel At Plaza de Armas

8/10 Good

"This review is tricky because I feel there are better rooms and we just got a bad one which is why I can’t give 5 stars Let’s start with the good. Loved the staff and location. You cannot get a hotel with a better location and the staff goes above and beyond. Do note that the view in the photo of the plaza del Armas doesn’t look like that right now. The trees are very over grown and the entire left side you cannot see. That isn’t the hotels fault but it was badly obstructed. Luckily you can go to other roof top restaurants for a better view Now for the reason I removed one star and almost more but I am sure I got a bad room because I find it hard to believe no one else has complained about the rooms… our room was so hot.. no AC and there’s just a fan and a sliding window that goes to a shaft that reaches outside. We would even leave our room door open to get some air flow but it didn’t help. The first night we were able to sleep with the sliding glass open… the second night… we had neighbors who apparently had full access to this shaft location cause they were standing right in front of our bed …. It was totally nuts. On top of that we could hear them talking the entire night because we had to have some air in our room and left the window open This hotel is not the place if you want rest. It’s loud from everyone leaving early on their hikes and even more loud if you get our room and have to basically hear your neighbors."

Sonesta Hotel Arequipa

10/10 Excellent

"Great customer service. Great place to stay. Open, comfortable, great amenities, nice breakfast"

Mint Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I travelled with family and we had a great experience at Mint Hotel! The property location is great, it took approximately 10-15 mins by car to the main attractions. The staff and restaurant service were amazing!"

Casa Andina Select Arequipa Plaza

8/10 Good

"Great location, the restaurant had good variety and the food was good The staff was very friendly. I feel the mattress wasn’t very comfortable"

La Casona de palacio Viejo
