About

Casona La Recoleta

Casona La Recoleta occupies an independent building in a historic quarter of Cusco, roughly a 5-minute drive from the Religious Art Museum and not far from Qenko Ruins. The property has just 8 rooms, most with garden outlooks, and the atmosphere is more private residence than standard hotel. Wood fireplaces appear throughout, and the sitting areas are designed for slow mornings and cool Andean evenings.

Breakfast is a recurring highlight in guest feedback — fresh fruit, eggs, and local bread are replenished daily, and the attentive staff are often singled out for their patience and care. The guest kitchen is a practical bonus, and the location places you within easy walking distance of Cusco's main square, shops, and restaurants.

Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Small property, limited scale — With only 8 rooms, availability can be tight and on-site facilities are modest — don't expect a large hotel's array of services.
  • Check-in only until 23:30 — If your flight or train arrives late, you'll need to plan accordingly; the reception isn't open for check-in after midnight.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accommodate pets, so you'll need other arrangements for traveling with animals.
  • No on-site parking mentioned — If you're driving, note that the hotel doesn't list parking as an amenity; find public options nearby.
  • Historical area can mean street noise — Its location in a lively historical district brings plenty of foot traffic and activity; light sleepers might want earplugs.
