After a brief stay at the freezing cold Casa de Melgar I stumbled across this lovely hotel just down the road. It has only been open a year so is not in any of the guide books which is probably why it was almost completely empty for the 3 nights that we stayed there.

We only paid $35 a night which is very reasonable as the accomodation is of a very high standard. The rooms are a reasonable size and all have a fridge with a mini-bar. There are a number of rooms on the roof which also contains a terrace with views of the imposing mountains surrounding Arequipa.

Breakfast is also excellent and included in the price.
