I really liked the location of this hotel. It was steps away from the Plaza de Armas and other attractions. My room was an inside room with no outside window (the only window was a view of the stairwell), and it was much smaller than I expected. A window for ventilation would have helped with the altitude sickness, but all in all the room was perfect for 1 person. It had a refrigerator which was a nice surprise. The staff were very helpful and accomodating. I like the charm of the decor, and the breakfast was hearty and filling. I did experience the noise other reviewers have referred to, but it did not disway me. My head was pounding already from the altitude sickness!

Overall, a good hotel that includes most amenities. Very cozy. Stayed in a room with windows only overlooking the internal atriums, so at times a little stuffy (and our room did not have A/C). The only major problem we encountered with this hotel was the loud music from the club across the street that continued until 4AM on weeknights! From our room you could hear/feel the drum beat.

The Del Prado Inn is a gorgeous, well-functioning hotel with one very big problem - it's basically sandwiched between two nightclubs.

We stayed at the Inn for 6 nights all up - four before going to Macchu Picchu and two afterwards. Our room the first time around was very small, but it was comfortable enough and the staff did all they could to help make arrangements for trips into the Sacred Valley etc. The ear plugs they provided on the first night warned that it might be loud, but we didn't expect it to be that loud and for that long - it didn't wrap up until 5am. Not ideal when you have an early start!

When we returned from Macchu Picchu we were upgraded to a much larger room which, for some reason (it was basically in the same place, just on a lower level), was considerably quieter. You could still feel and hear the thud of the bass but it probably would be okay for heavy sleepers.

It's a great hotel but I would be reluctant to stay there again because it's simply too loud.

I have just returned from a 5 days at Cusco and Machu Picchu and I really appreciated the 4 nights we spent at Del Prado Inn. Staff is wonderful (muchas gracias Cesar), location is wonderful (just in Plaza de Armas)and we really felt among friends.The room is quite confortable, clean and their Inca wall at the restaurant is fabulous. Thank you all for everything!
