I only wish I could give this little boutique 10 stars for service, which was above and beyond spectacular. Let's start this review by discussing the physical aspects of the hotel, itself. First, the location could not be more central or more convenient. The hotel is 1/2 block from the main plaza, which is as close as you can get... More

This was an excellent hotel and made our stay special in Arequipa. The location is very central, the service was excellent, the staff all spoke good English and were very polite and the breakfast was amaizing. We always found our luggage and laundry in the room. On returning from two days trekking at the colca canyon I needed some ice... More

Los Tambos is located close to the main square in Arequipa and provides nice modern rooms and facilities. Recommendations for restaurants were excellent and the staff was first rate at all times of day! We requested that they arrange our 3-day Colca Canyon hike to our needs and they did a wonderful job.

This was my 3rd hotel stay in Arequipa and the smallest room (dbl bed). Arrived 1:30pm, checked in but told politely room wouldn't be ready for an hour. Returned to find suitcase already in the room. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout. Some construction work right outside my room window, but it finished before sundown. The bed was just ok,... More

From start to finish, the service and convenience provided by Los tambos was bar none. They scheduled our colca canyon trip for us, Thomas (the manager) helped us to get our laundry done in a very short turn around time, and the entire staff was friendly and excellent. To add convenience, they put the extra costs on our room bill... More
