My husband and I spent a couple of nights in La Posada del Cacique in September 2010. The place is a family business run by very friendly and helpful people. The rooms are basic, but cosy, the bathrooms are basic, but there is hot water available all the time. There is a small kitchen facility. The roof terrace is a... More

I stayed here with 5 other friends (3 couples) for a few nights. They were pretty accomodating and flexible with us, because we'd booked 3 rooms for 3 nights, but then wanted to cancel last minute the second night only. They let us leave all of our stuff there for a night while we went to Colca Canyon, for a... More

I love the Posada del Cachique. We have been there twice, the first time during our holiday 2008 in Peru and the second time in 2009 while travelling around the world....and both times we had a great time there! The owners Jose and his father are very helpful...they suggested a good company for the trip to Colca Canyon, good restaurants,... More

We liked being able to make our own tea/coffee and also liked the rooftop terrace (great view of the volcanoes). Location was excellent and Jose was very... More

The hostal is located in the beautiful old part of Arequipa. All interesting places are in a walking distance. The place is one of these old colonial houses, so there are some details like in all old houses, but the rooms are comfortable and clean. They offer a nice roof terrace and a little kitchen where you can prepare breakfast... More

Picked up the place in LonelyPlanet Peru 2007. Big mistake ! Stayed 4 nights in 4 different rooms. We booked by phone. The owner said that he will be waiting for us at the bus terminal with a car. That was true but once arrived at the hotel, we had to pay the driver (who was not an official taxi).... More
