I just returned from another fabulous journey to Lake Titicaca, Peru staying AGAIN at the Taypikala Lago Hotel. This hotel is right on the lake in Chucuito ~ 20 minutes from Puno. You are away from the hustle & noise of Puno with only the sounds of nature and your heart to keep you company....the breeze, the local sheep &... More

Great place to enjoy the lake and your travels and adventures around the lake. Food adequate, rooms nice...but get a room AWAY from the lobby...and hopefully one with a lake view. Rooms had been updated...but some things weren't working, and things had fallen off the walls. Overall however, good quality. More

Interesting to read reviews by KilgoreTr... and dlandryqb . It is true that many guests were seniors - like us! It is a fact that it is 20 minutes outside town. I really liked this hotel. The fact that it was out of Puno was a plus. It was good to relax after touring round. We had 7 nights in... More

Just visited peru for three weeks and this was the most expensive hotel we stayed in but it was far from the best value. The worst thing was that it was so far from anything. 30+ minutes from Puno and a 27 to 30 soles cab ride each way. luckily the resturante is good although it can take a long... More

I spent a night here, and the hotel certainly had nice views and the staff was friendly enough. I could see how some people would like this hotel (the patrons were generally in the 40s and older crowd). It just wasn't for me: it was very far from Puno, and the town that it is in (Chuquito I believe) literally... More

Fabulous hotel away from the hustle and bustle of Puno. Right on the shores of Lake Titicaca, you can watch the sun rise from your bed or from one of the lovely crystal gardens. If you want a little more zen energy, walk the labyrinth. The hotel rooms, grounds, staff, food and location are fabulous! More

Taypikala Hotel Lago is located outside of Puno by about 15 minutes and just down the road from a quiet little town of Chuquito- where ever store owner is pleasant, smiles and is extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel is situated right on the shores of Lake Titicaca and waking up to the sunrise over the lake each morning was... More

strange-looking hotel, architecturally quite different but the food, room & location are quite good - one of the better places we stayed during our time in peru. there are beautiful views of lake titicaca from the rooms & rooftop & it is located in the small town of chocuito, outside of puno, which is a plus!
