The location for this property is the best, rooms are a little small but to be honest you only sleep and shower there's so much to do in Cusco! Tours will pick you up early. A lot of restaurants, bars, coffe shops, souvenir stores around and right in the main plaza. Staff was amazing. Zoila did our check in and she was very helpful. They have tea and coffee in the lobby as a courtesy abd everything you need just by asking.

Very uncomfortable, the beds are really hard and the space in the rooms is very tight. We stayed in room 304 and we had to literally seat on the bed to be able to open the bathroom door. The space was very tight! We had booked for 3 nights and we checked out on the first night. We’re NEVER returning! The staff was very friendly but what you see in the pictures does not have an accurate description. Their dining room is on the basement with no windows, the table you see on the pictures is their superior triple room with balcony view, not their cafeteria/dining room.

Home from home in Cusco
Stayed here several times over the course of a couple of weeks in and around Cusco. Central, lovely friendly helpful staff, good breakfast, very clean, plenty of hot water 24/7 The standard double was fine (we had 1 night in this room type) but for other nights we found it worth paying a little extra for the Panoramic Suite which had loads of space, great while on an extended stay, a huge walk in shower which was great when returning from jungle trips and treks, and quite simply the best view in Cusco. The Plaza de Armas is lively though, especially in June, so expect some noise but grandstand views of all the parades and dance events. We didn't find the noise to be to much though and in fact during our stay the french doors onto the balcony were upgraded which gave a peaceful night's sleep even at the height of the Corpus Christ week celebrations

We chose this property due to its location right in front of plaza de Armas. The staff seemed a bit odd, and not very friendly. Everything seemed tolerable until I got severely beaten by what seem to be bedbugs and fleas!!! I immediately notified the staff, and they switched us to another room in the middle of the night, but I was leaving for a tour very early in the morning, and so I left that morning with my body covered invites, and when I came back, we simply decided to leave this dirty and old hotel! The staff cooperated as far as releasing us without having to pay for the stay, but did end up spending extra money in a doctor and medications as the bites were extremely uncomfortable. The hotel refused to help compensate for the inconvenient and helping perhaps pay for the medical expenses. Please if you want to have a great time and not get bitten by nasty bugs please reconsider before booking El Virrey Boutique!!!!

Great stay
It’s great place to stay and being a hub for exploring a Cusco and its surroundings. We stayed three nights here. It’s at the best location of the city-main square. All the restaurants are easily accessible. And tour companies are nearby so it’s easy to go for day tour. Before we left for Machu Picchu we left our big luggage in the hotel for two nights and they had no problem at all. We are grateful for that. It’s in the city center so we didn’t expect a big room. But actually it’s big enough for three of us and luggage our room doesn’t have a view of the square but I’m glad that. Because the square can get quite noisy during the day until late night (actually whole night). Heater and bathroom and shower everything works very well.
