About

Hostal Casa Del Inka

Hostal Casa Del Inka sits on Calle Resbalosa in the heart of Cusco, a short walk from Plaza de Armas and the Cusco Cathedral. The building is set on a hill, so expect a gentle climb, but the reward is a terrace that guests consistently highlight for its sweeping views over the city's rooftops.

Rooms range from doubles with shared or private bathrooms to a studio apartment with a kitchenette. The hostal offers practical touches like Wi-Fi throughout, luggage storage, currency exchange, and paid airport shuttle. Many guests mention the warmth of the family that runs the place, who help with bookings and local advice.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Terrace views that guests remember — The rooftop terrace offers a panorama over Cusco's rooftops, especially praised at breakfast. Several reviews call the view 'superb' or 'like a postcard.'
  • Helpful, personal service — The family running the hostal is repeatedly described as warm and supportive, assisting with bus tickets, bookings, and local tips.
  • Quiet yet central location — A short walk from the main square and historical center, but guests note the street stays tranquil despite nearby nightlife.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Some rooms face an internal shaft — A few double rooms have windows overlooking a narrow gap between buildings, limiting natural light and views.
  • Steep hill to reach the hostal — The property sits high up on a hillside, so it involves a climb — something to consider at Cusco's altitude.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not permit pets, which may limit options for travelers with animals.

“One night here with family was a genuinely pleasant experience. The double room was reasonably sized, the bathroom was fine, and the decor was charming — plus a desk, coffee/tea maker, and TV were all in good shape. The location was perfect, close to the main square yet very peaceful.”

“The location was handy for both the nightlife and the historical center, and it's very near Yakumama Restaurant for lunch. The room was extremely spacious and quiet, even with the window onto the shaft, and I couldn't have asked for more. The decor was tasteful.”

“We loved it! It's high on the hill, so be ready for a climb, but the rooftop view is superb. The room is cozy, the bathroom well equipped, and the family is genuinely nice and super helpful.”
