“What stands out is its enviable spot right on the Plaza de Armas; you're immediately part of the city's pulse. I appreciate the thoughtful touches, like the made-to-order breakfast, a welcome change from typical hotel buffets. It's a solid choice for those wanting to be in the heart of Arequipa, with a few caveats about potential noise.”
