Best location in town , just by the main plaza. The plaza is very busy at times with parades and music. All that can be heard muffled from the rooms.

Perfect location with gorgeous view! Book the panoramic suite- you can look right at the church from your small balcony. Although the bed was hard, it was a large and clean room. The hotel was walking distance from all main areas of Cusco since this is in the main square. Good breakfast.

The best thing about this property is that it is right in front of the main square in Cusco. Get the room with a view to the square. It has a balcony with awesome views.

10/10 Exceptional

GREAT place to stay, especially if it's your first time in Cusco! Great location in the middle of everything. I had a room overlooking the main plaza and it was amazing. The staff is friendly and great. Fine Print: I wouldn't recommend staying here if you're driving a car or have a rental car, because parking is difficult in the area and the hotel doesn't have a parking lot of its own that I know of. Fine Print: I also wouldn't recommend staying here if you're a light sleeper because the plaza can get noisy with events. I slept just fine but other people who I was with did not. To Be Improved: everything is fine really but the only thing I can think of is it maybe they need to put cups or glasses in the in the room so you can drink water or other beverages.

GREAT LOCATION. Can't beat it. Very friendly staff. Stored my luggage for 2 days while visiting Machu Picchu. Beautiful decor. Very safe. Packed breakfast for me also.

The location for this property is the best, rooms are a little small but to be honest you only sleep and shower there's so much to do in Cusco! Tours will pick you up early. A lot of restaurants, bars, coffe shops, souvenir stores around and right in the main plaza. Staff was amazing. Zoila did our check in and she was very helpful. They have tea and coffee in the lobby as a courtesy abd everything you need just by asking.

The bed very comfortable. Hot water in the shower. Just in front of plaza the armas. Just a recommendation if your sleep is light use earplugs just for the front rooms. Because nightlife is wild.

Home from home in Cusco

Stayed here several times over the course of a couple of weeks in and around Cusco. Central, lovely friendly helpful staff, good breakfast, very clean, plenty of hot water 24/7 The standard double was fine (we had 1 night in this room type) but for other nights we found it worth paying a little extra for the Panoramic Suite which had loads of space, great while on an extended stay, a huge walk in shower which was great when returning from jungle trips and treks, and quite simply the best view in Cusco. The Plaza de Armas is lively though, especially in June, so expect some noise but grandstand views of all the parades and dance events. We didn't find the noise to be to much though and in fact during our stay the french doors onto the balcony were upgraded which gave a peaceful night's sleep even at the height of the Corpus Christ week celebrations

Great stay

It’s great place to stay and being a hub for exploring a Cusco and its surroundings. We stayed three nights here. It’s at the best location of the city-main square. All the restaurants are easily accessible. And tour companies are nearby so it’s easy to go for day tour. Before we left for Machu Picchu we left our big luggage in the hotel for two nights and they had no problem at all. We are grateful for that. It’s in the city center so we didn’t expect a big room. But actually it’s big enough for three of us and luggage our room doesn’t have a view of the square but I’m glad that. Because the square can get quite noisy during the day until late night (actually whole night). Heater and bathroom and shower everything works very well.

Great Place, Great Time

El Virrey's location could not be better. You're right in the middle of the square. So much to do right outside your door. Showers were hot and if you needed it they had a heater in the room. We were a party of 6 and one day we were leaving before breakfast and ask if we might get something to go. They did us one better, they set up a full breakfast for us earlier than they would normally open. The woman that ran the breakfast couldn't have been more accommodating. If there was something new to the buffet, she would walk around and ask everyone if they would like to try it. The front desk also was great. I used the laundry service, left the laundry at the front desk and when I got back late the next night stopped to pick it up and told it was already in my room! They were friendly and helpful. We had a great stay and would recommend it to my friends.

2/10 Poor

Very uncomfortable, the beds are really hard and the space in the rooms is very tight. We stayed in room 304 and we had to literally seat on the bed to be able to open the bathroom door. The space was very tight! We had booked for 3 nights and we checked out on the first night. We’re NEVER returning! The staff was very friendly but what you see in the pictures does not have an accurate description. Their dining room is on the basement with no windows, the table you see on the pictures is their superior triple room with balcony view, not their cafeteria/dining room.
