  • DM Hoteles Tacna

    South Coast

    Bringing the feeling of an old-school resort to the city center, the architecturally uninteresting DM Hotel Tacna is certainly large but is well past it's…

  • Hospedaje las Portadas

    Ollantaytambo

    At these prices you can't be picky. Front rooms are dated and dark, with tired pillows – go for the fresher new ones behind the flowery courtyard. Despite…

  • Samay Wasi

    Cuzco

    A friendly, rambling hostel clinging precariously to the hillside, hidden up a flight of stairs teetering way above town. There’s a proper kitchen and…

    Aguas Calientes

    This small campground has toilets, showers and kitchen facilities. It’s a 20-minute walk downhill from the center of town on the road to Machu Picchu,…

  • Pensión Ibarra

  • Pisko & Soul

    Cuzco

    This Peruvian hostel goes for the Spanish-language-school formula, with free lessons, evening events and barbecues. Small dorms have snug down covers but…

  • Hostal Manco Sixpac

    Cuzco & the Sacred Valley

    The town’s biggest building, this guesthouse is run by the Cobos family of local guides. There's hot water for showers, a rare find in these parts. You…

  • Andenes de Saphi

    Cuzco

    At the far end of Saphi, where the city starts to peter out, this hotel has a rustic wooden construction with skylights and murals in most rooms. Choose…

  • Hostal Kaminu

    Lima

    Tiny and rambling, this sardine-can hostel sits in the thick of Barranco nightlife – for better or worse. Highlights include an ambient rooftop deck. It…

  • Hostal Municipalidad

    Cañón Del Colca

    These scruffy digs are the only option on Madrigal's Plaza de Armas. Rooms are basic but it makes a good base to explore the nearby archaeological sites.

  • Alojamiento Cordillera Blanca

    Huaraz & the Cordilleras

    A rather grubby little place near the market with cramped rooms a few years past their best-before date. OK if you're desperate and/or broke.

  • Hitchhikers

    Cuzco

    In a very central location, this hostel is a bit run-down with sloping floors but it's clean and not too busy. Rooms are on the cold side.

  • Hostal Volcanes

    Arequipa & Canyon Country

    Perfectly fine, if basic, accommodations with 24-hour hot water.
