Hotel Agustos Cusco

The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and cozy with quality mattresses. Guests enjoyed the high-altitude breakfast and praised the attentive and friendly staff. Some mentioned spectacular views and quiet surroundings.

Since we were on a tour, we didn't choose this hotel as it was arranged by the tour. All of our other hotels were very nice, but this one was not so good. First of all, it is located in an industrial area, so when we went looking for a place to eat after a late arrival, there were few options. The next day during our free time we walked around quite a bit looking for anything interesting but only found machine shops, hardware stores, garages, etc. As for the hotel itself, we found ourselves in a room with twin beds, and we prefer to sleep in the same bed, even if it is a double, but twins are too small for two people. It was surface clean, but details were lacking. The floor drain in the bathroom was absolutely disgusting, and we noticed it every time we used the toilet. We were only there for two days and nights, and on the middle day I wasn't feeling well so I opted out of the tour. The whole day staying in that room with the street noise was awful, and for one hour there was a fruit vendor with a loudspeaker walking back and forth along the block in front of the hotel, super annoying. The internet was really slow and kept stopping, causing me to have to reboot everything over and over. The breakfast buffet was fine, with lots of traditional breakfast foods, fruit, yogurt, etc., and although the second morning they offered only hard-boiled eggs, which I can't stand, they made me a couple scrambled eggs on request, which I much appreciated.

The staff at this hotel go out of their way to make you feel welcome and valued. The restaurant serves a very reasonable 3 course set meal for 50 soles, about £10 at current exchange, and the waiter, Hester was amazing. Initially we were aware of a lot of traffic noise in our room as there are 2 busy roads outside, but during the night this was much less of a problem. We had ample hot water, clean towels and a comfortable bed. We tend to walk everywhere and it took us about 35 minutes to walk to the main historical square, though taxis are available and cheap. This is a pleasant low cost hotel where the positives hugely outweigh the negatives and we would recommend it to anyone.
