“Wonderful hotel in a great location.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 November 2011

We absolutely adored this hotel! The room itself was huge and very clean and the bathroom had a deep, jetted tub. The hotel grounds were beautifully landscaped and inviting and had many seating areas and outdoor tables situated throughout. There was a quaint reading area nicely stocked with books and magazines. The breakfast room was inviting and the complimentary breakfast was served rather than buffet. The meal was very enjoyable.

The hotel is situated just a block from the heart of Nasca so is more quiet than other hotels yet a short walk to shops, restaurants, and a small planetarium.

Since there was a small table and chairs in our room in, we opted for picking up a few empanadas from a local panaderia for dinner rather than dine out. The room was so large this was not uncomfortable at all.

“Nazca Peru: Hotel Oro Viejo”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 October 2011

We stayed overnight to visit friends and this hotel had been mentioned in Lonely Planet...It looks like a door in a wall as so many hotels in Peru do. When you go through the door, it's lovely; hacienda style...open seating areas, a garden, small pool, grass! We walked in and booked/ paid about $45 for a 3 bed room upstairs in mid Sept. and the room was charming and large...bathroom with lots of hot water. Great breakfast buffet with eggs to order....very nice staff. Location is right in the business district a few doors away from a terrific souvenir shop.

“just great”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 September 2011

We were a walk in booking at the last moment, due to the bus to Cusco being fully booked. Lady luck sometimes throws you an ace ,and this was it. We had an extra day to relax by the pool and time to do the double decker bus city tour . The hotel ticks all the boxes .
if you are going to do the flight over the lines DO NOT book with the hotel as they charge120US dollars whereas if you go to the airport yourself its only 100US dollars for the same trip.Try to fly 3.30 - 4.00pm which gives much better light to see the lines. Excellent breakfast, clean tidy room with hot strong shower. Although you are required to check out by 11.30am the hotel has no problem with looking after the luggage and letting you use all the hotel facilities while you wait for the night time buses. Good all round value. Highly recommended.

We stay only 1 night in Nazca, it does not deserve more than that, only the Nazca Lines and the Chauchillas Cementery are worthfull.

The hotel is very nice, the rooms are very comfortable and it has a small swimming pool and a beautiful park. The location is excellent!

“A nice option for a stay in Nasca”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 June 2011

people found this review helpful

Reading a travel guide regarding Peru and Nazca I decided to book this Hotel for my one-night short stay in the city. But this was not the only reason for it. Oro Viejo was the only top-rated considered hotel that accepted it. I tried to contact other ones but they did never answer me back when I pointed my trip duration. So beware some hotels in Nazca may just accept a reservation for 2 or more nights.
Luckily they refused my inquiries. Oro Viejo is really a nice spot to rest and enjoy.
It is located just 2 blocks east the Ovalo, where buses to-and-from anywhere in Peru stop and 5 minutes or less from the central Plaza de Armas main square.
Front-desk was attentive and courteous. Check-in was a bit slug-paced anyway. They can either give you options to wander around the city or arrange side-trips to discover Nazca sights (and guess what...Nazca Lines is the first one to be delivered).
I've got a room with bathroom. Probably the largest room taken during my whole trip to Peru. Bathroom was nice and huge. The hotel itself is a cozy and well-decorated place.
Breakfast was fine and convenient to hold you up (avoid it before flying the Nazca Lines). Free internet was also provided in the lobby area.
But what really counts on favor and makes all the difference was the incredible-freshy pool opened the whole day. After a fiery and dusty day in Nazca there's nothing better to do than dipping in the pool.
As a final remark, I tried to get a late check-out once I would just leave Nazca too late in the night but the hotel was fully booked. They offered my a sort of warehouse room with key to store my luggage and also they permitted me to use the hotel amenities for the period I needed, including the pool, while I wandered the city awaiting for the never-coming bus to Cuzco...That's was really a nice gesture to their guests.
I have no complains about Oro Viejo and certainly would recommend it to whoever wants to stay in Nazca...for a short...or even longer period...
