Stayed here twice before and after a trek. Very social, felt very safe and was staffed overnight, lots of spaces inside to sit and chill or work. Everywhere was kept clean and I appreciated little things like the railings to dry clothes or towels, the water refills and free coca tea, and that I could store my luggage securely whilst trekking. Staff all very friendly and helpful.

I had an incredible stay at Viajero Hostel Cusco, and I’m genuinely grateful for the amazing team that made my experience unforgettable. First, a huge shoutout to Ever, who brought so much joy, energy, and fun to every activity. He organized everything perfectly... from the games to the tours, creating an atmosphere where everyone felt welcome, connected, and ready to enjoy the best of Cusco. Ever truly made the social experience exceptional! I also want to highlight the impeccable cleanliness maintained by Roxana. Every corner of the hostel was spotless, and the rooms were always fresh, tidy, and comfortable. Her dedication and effort did not go unnoticedit made the entire stay feel safe, cozy, and extremely well cared for.

My experience at Kokopalli Hostel in Cusco was truly delightful. The hostel offered excellent amenities and a fantastic location. I want to give a special mention to Christian, the bartender and manager, for going the extra mile to make not only me but also other guests feel right at home every single day. Gracias! Ps. He also makes delicious Pico sours.

I loved staying here. Full of young-ish people with lots of energy. Ping pong and foosball tables. Social spaces. Really nice private room with bath. Pretty nice communal showers for the hostel-style rooms if you go that route. Staff were so helpful and friendly, it was amazing. Service on par with the finest hotels I have stayed at anywhere. The location is awesome, close to the main square in the historic center. I stayed here twice and would highly recommend it.
