A really great hostel with everything a backpacker could want! It's a fantastic place to meet people and to chill out and have some fun before or after the Inca trail. The heart of the hostel is a lively bar with great food during the day, and great fun at night. The dorms are clean and comfortable. The beds are... More

Went there as a solo traveller. Didn't know this is where I'm going to meet the love of my life :) The staff is amazing and the hostel got a lot going on from day to night. I loved their theme parties when everyone wear costumes. The food in the menu is good (really liked their tomato soup!), the alcohol... More

Upon checkin I was told I had no reservation even while showing the email confirmation. We were then put in a dorm more expensive than we had booked and upon checkout they used the currency differences as the excuse. Breakfast consists of dry flat rolls mostly non exsistant. Also ONLY my top bunk bed was mysteriously made at 6pm and... More

LOKI has internet, a bar with a happening party crowd, hot water, and informative staff. Inside the bar/cafe area, one could easily forget that they´re Cuzco because of the fraternity-style partying in the hostel. Not what I was looking for, but appeared to be haven for many young backpackers. More

I stayed at the Loki hostel, Cusco and ended up working behind the bar! After months of backpacking, it is exactly what you need, especially before an arduous trek. Comfy beds, Western-style food and cheap alcohol. This may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it certainly is a great place to meet new people. There are different activities happening... More

We arrived at the Loki without a reservation but that wasn't a problem, we were shown to a 4 bed room which was nice, the beds were very comfortable, cleaned every day as were the bathrooms. We arrived on saturday and that night there was a toga party in the bar which was fun. The Loki is good for meeting... More

Not a great location, up a very steep hill. Staff not that friendly. Do not think it’s a good idea that once you get into the hostel you cannot lock your bedroom door – not safe as they have a bar that is open to the public and anyone can walk passed you room and go in. Also when we... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 1 week. We found the bar staff in particular to be unfriendly and unhelpful. My boyfirend and i had to stay a night in hospital due to food poisoning, yet we still got charged for the night in Loki! They also overcharged me as they didn´t take off my deposit that I paid...
