Our stay at Sonesta Cusco was excellent! The hotel is comfortable, beautifully maintained, and conveniently located just a short walk from the main square. The rooms are spacious, quiet, and very cozy—perfect for resting after exploring Cusco. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, always ready to help with anything we needed and making us feel truly welcome. The breakfast buffet was also fantastic, with plenty of fresh and delicious options to start the day. We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend Sonesta Cusco to anyone visiting the city.

Well-kept hotel with a great breakfast and attentive staff. It was a bit of a walk to the main area so access to restaurants required a bit of a walk. Rooms were large and clean but could get a bit stuffy… we opened the large window for a nice breeze but at the expense of noisy traffic we overlooked the main road. Overall an enjoyable stay!
