In Peru's second-most populous city, aka "The White City," stunning colonial buildings made of pearly sillar stone vie for attention with the surrounding volcanoes and snow-capped peaks of the western Andes. Founded in 1540, it's a smorgasbord of mansions and museums. The top attraction, 215,000-square-foot Santa Catalina Monastery, is like its own city within a city, complete with fountains and cobblestone streets. Arequipa is the favorite base for visiting Colca Canyon and its massive condors.

I looked around a lot in the central area of Arequipa and found this to be the best of the cheaper places .The rooms were also warmer than some of the other places I looked at. I found the breakfast ok as most hotels provide no breakfast and here there is at least a small one.

I stayed at La Casa De Chamo for almost a month, my experience was amazing as it felt like home. Anita and Chamo made me felt welcome to their place and treated me more as a friend/family more than a customer. Would recommend this place if you are staying in Arequipa, affordable and close to the centre.

I booked a room at Casona Moya through one of the biggest booking platforms. The ad was accompanied by details and pictures. I paid for a large, comfortable double room with a bathroom for the use of one person but the room I was given upon arrival was nothing like described. It was super tiny, had no windows (!), no ventilation whatsoever, there were insects on the walls and in the air, a TV rack with no TV, no place to hang a jacket, no wardrobe, no sofa; even though it was all listed on the booking platform. There was a walk-through bathroom in my room with a second (not lockable, see through) door leading to another room where one of the relatives, I suppose, lived and watched loud TV. In a nutshell, what was written in the ad was pure science fiction and I felt tricked with what I was being offered. Upon my request, the owner, Mr Moya, agreed to change my room but the alternative room I was offered was even further detached from the false advertising on the internet. The owner started getting frustrated, I reckon, and when I asked for some time he started texting me on Whatsapp insulting me and saying that I was not able to appreciate a real beauty of a XVI century casona (falsely being presented on the internet in the first place). With no reaction or decision on my end, Mr Moya wrote that there were plenty of accommodation in the centre, I was free to search for something else and that he would gladly cancel my booking for free. So basically, before I was able to make a decision about what to do, I was being uninvited from Casona Moya. After these rude messages, I had no choice but to pack my heavy bags, leave and go search for somewhere else to stay. All in all, I have travelled and stayed at various types of accommodations around the world but I, honestly, never came across such a rude, dishonest host as Mr Moya. I am quite surprised the accommodation has, supposedly, such good ratings (friends?family?). I felt extremely uncomfortable at the property (the short time I spent there) and I am writing this review hoping other travellers will avoid the unpleasant disappointment.

I travel the world and I love homestays. I was in Arecuipa for 10 weeks learning Spanish and found this perfect little cozy house. The family welcomed me with open arms and much more. The family consisted of mom, dad and 2 sons ( 24 years old and 11 years old). They provided me with a perfect little room and my own bathroom. It was near town so I was able to walk everywhere I wanted to go. They were so excited to have me and did everything they could to make me feel like one of the family members. If I wanted to join in the festivities I could or if i wanted to relax alone I easily could as well. They speak both Spanish and English but mostly tried to speak Spanish just so I could learn. I felt at home when I was there and never felt lonely. I highly, highly recommend stating with this prefect homestay family.

Nous sommes restés 5j à La casa de Asterix; tout s'est très bien passé pour un prix honnête ! Notre chambre était grande et nettoyé tous les jours, avec une belle vue sur le parc et une salle de bain privée. L'auberge est proche du centre mais située dans un quartier calme et sûr. Coup de coeur pour le personnel qui est adorable et très serviable !! Nous recommandons chaudement We stayed here the past 5 days and everything was perfect with a honest price ! Our room was big and cleaned everyday, with a great view on the park and a private bathroom. The hotel is near from the center and located in a quiet neighborhood. Big up for the staff that was truly kind and helpful !!
