- Lima, Peru
Housed in a lovingly restored 1920s villa just a block from the Pacific, this Barranco gem wins hearts through its attentive staff, manager Isaac pointing out garden birds, Victor presiding warmly over rooftop breakfasts of fresh fruit, eggs and pancakes, and the team quietly arranging a boxed breakfast with coffee and orange juice for a 3 a.m. departure without a moment's hesitation.
- Cusco, Peru
Tucked into the highlands of Chinchero, this warmly run family home offers spacious, beautifully decorated rooms with individual heaters to ward off the Andean chill, hot showers, and a breakfast of fresh-baked bread, local fruit, and avocado, all presided over by Edgar, Carolina, and their family, who greet arriving guests with tea, offer hugs on return, and have been known to invite travellers along to a cousin's wedding.
- Lima, Peru
Tucked into the heart of Miraflores, this intimate three-room colonial house charms with vintage-furnished, exceptionally comfortable bedrooms, a delicious breakfast, and the devoted personal care of hostess Erika, who greets late arrivals at the door, offers pinpoint restaurant recommendations, and brings a warmth that guests across several languages single out as the finest hospitality they have encountered.
- Barranco, Peru
Tucked into a handsome historic building in Barranco, Casa Cáceres wins hearts through attentive, named staff, Antonio, José, and Mafer among them, a loft room reached by a winding staircase, honeysuckle drifting from the garden wall each evening, and the reassuring presence of an owner-occupied household that makes the whole place feel warmly, personally run.
- Miraflores, Peru
A quietly charming guesthouse in Miraflores where attentive hosts arrange airport transfers at midnight, prepare made-to-order breakfasts, eggs, mini pancakes, and fresh fruit, and will even leave a packed breakfast in the fridge for early departures, all within colourfully decorated, clean and peaceful rooms that guests consistently describe as a perfect retreat for couples.
- Cusco, Peru
Tucked into a courtyard in Cusco's San Blas artists' quarter, this charming hotel wins hearts through its thoughtful particulars, hot water bottles slipped into beds each chilly evening, eggs made to order at a richly stocked breakfast, mulled wine offered in the lobby, and staff who think nothing of packing sack lunches, sourcing oxygen for altitude-struck guests, or producing a birthday cake entirely unprompted.
- Cusco, Peru
Presided over by the warmly attentive Zuzan, who stores luggage, runs laundry errands, and keeps hot tea and water on hand throughout the day, this quiet, spotlessly kept B&B a short walk uphill from Cusco's centre offers spacious rooms adorned with local art, a breakfast guests describe as delicious, and the rare, unhurried feeling of being welcomed into someone's home rather than merely checked into one.
- Lima, Peru
Run by a warm team of women, Pati, Flavia, Jessica, and Ingrid among them, this Miraflores B&B wins guests over with its homemade breakfasts of fresh yogurt, jams, and made-to-order eggs, interesting art on the walls, and the kind of attentive, personal service that stretches to packed breakfasts for early flights and the occasional smell of cookies baking the night before.
- Barranco, Peru
A boutique stay in the heart of Barranco where attentive, personalised service, with staff singled out by name, meets a beautifully original building adorned with Peruvian artwork, comfortable rooms, and a good breakfast.
- Cusco, Peru
A no-frills, spotlessly clean little guesthouse perched on the hillside above Cusco's centre, where simple, comfortable beds, reliably hot water, tasteful décor, and owners willing to adjust breakfast times or share their dinner table make for a warmly hospitable stay at a remarkably modest price.
- Pisac, Peru
A small, family-run hospedaje where hosts Janny and Alberto keep rooms spotlessly clean, beds freshly made each day, and arrive each evening with a thermos of hot water for tea or coffee, a quietly thoughtful touch that makes this well-placed Pisac bolthole feel far more like a home than a hotel.
- Cusco, Peru
Tucked on a quiet street within easy walking distance of Cusco's Plaza de Armas, this charming boutique hotel wins hearts with its lovely courtyard, heated rooms stocked with thoughtful extras, complimentary coca-leaf tea available throughout the day, and a breakfast buffet of fresh fruits, ciabatta, and croissants, all delivered with the kind of attentive, warm-spirited service, led by the much-praised Dante, that has guests promising to return.

Tucked close to the heart of Cusco, this warmly run boutique hotel wins guests over with its comfortable, well-heated rooms dressed in Inca-inspired décor, a generous breakfast that can be packed up for early-morning excursions, and an attentive staff, including the much-praised Pilar, Heidi, and Luz, who go out of their way to arrange tours and attend to every need.
- Cusco, Peru
A home-from-home tucked in Cusco's historic centre, Casa Elena wins hearts through Elena's made-to-order breakfasts of eggs, bread, and homemade jams, spotlessly clean rooms with reliable hot water, a covered courtyard, a small library stocked with books on Peru, and the kind of hands-on, knowledgeable hospitality, from organising Sacred Valley treks to arranging late-night taxis, that leaves guests feeling thoroughly looked after rather than merely accommodated.
- Cusco, Peru
Hosted with unstinting care by Yolanda, who arranges airport shuttles, early check-ins, laundry, and taxis without being asked, these spacious Cusco apartments with private terraces, sensational views over the historic centre, reliable heating, and thoughtful touches such as coca leaves for the altitude offer the warmth and charm of a well-run home that, as one returning guest put it, beats a hotel room hands down.

An unconventional converted house filled with art and character in a charming neighbourhood, with comfortable rooms and attentive service, though operational inconsistencies (access issues, maintenance problems) and dated infrastructure occasionally undermine the intimate atmosphere.
- Barranco, Peru
Stuffed floor-to-ceiling with teacups, bayonets, religious statues, and eccentric art in a 1918 building, this Barranco curiosity-shop of a hotel wins hearts through its warmly attentive staff, Ragnar, Giancarlo, and Sean Carlo among them, who offer local maps, spontaneous room upgrades, and late-night airport shuttles, though prospective guests should know the clutter is considerable and cleanliness has proven inconsistent.
- Cusco, Peru
Tucked into Cusco's historic centre, this colonial-style hotel wins guests over with its peaceful patios, spacious and well-heated rooms, a breakfast terrace that earns consistent praise, and a spirited pisco sour workshop led by the enthusiastic Moisés, all delivered by staff whose warmth is mentioned time and again.
- Barranco, Peru
This Barranco boutique has real character with its rustic 1950s rooms, high ceilings and ceiling fans, consistently praised breakfasts, and friendly staff, though one guest found their room a touch dark and the service can be inconsistent.
- Cusco, Peru
The hotel offers warm touches, wooden room details, attentive staff, complimentary coca tea for altitude sickness, and a generous breakfast, but feels more like a well-run, comfortable guesthouse than a truly intimate retreat, with one guest already planning to look elsewhere next time.

- Cusco, Peru
Tucked into the tranquil San Blas quarter of Cusco, this family-run B&B wins hearts with its welcoming central courtyard, thick duvets on the beds, and breakfasts built around legendary banana fritters and muña tea, though a handful of guests have noted that amenities such as hairdryers, toiletries, and towels can fall short of expectations.
- Barranco, Peru
Housed in a beautiful building adorned with stained glass and original artwork, this charming Barranco boutique hotel wins hearts through its spacious, well-appointed rooms, attentive staff who go out of their way for guests, and a tranquil setting just blocks from the ocean and the neighbourhood's lively plaza, though lighter sleepers should note that some rooms suffer from noise carrying through the building.

Perched above Cusco with sweeping views from balcony rooms, Encantada charms returning trekkers with skilled spa therapists burning Andean herbs, hot water bottles tucked into beds each evening, attentive staff who check in at breakfast, and a peaceful colonial setting, though the occasional bathroom odour and a somewhat hidden location are worth bearing in mind.
- Cusco, Peru
Perched above Cusco's historic centre with sweeping city views, this characterful, terracotta-and-timber property wins consistent praise for its attentive, warm-hearted staff and hearty free breakfast, though travellers should arrive with open eyes, the many stairs, variable hot water, and no-frills rooms make it far better suited to those happy to rough it a little in exchange for an atmospheric setting and remarkable rooftop outlook.

A large resort with manicured gardens, multiple pools, and restaurants that inspires family loyalty but reads as a comfortable, well-run destination rather than a place of intimate warmth or distinctive character.

- Cusco, Peru

- Cusco, Peru
A no-frills family-run hostel just three blocks from the Plaza de Armas, where the warmth of the female host, spotlessly clean rooms with private bathrooms and television, and wonderfully thick blankets make it a sensible, welcoming base for budget travellers tackling Cusco's altitude.
- Cusco, Peru
A modest guesthouse with comfortable, clean rooms and a charming central patio, though service inconsistencies and limited breakfast variety prevent it from feeling truly intimate or characterful.
- San Sebastián, Peru
A bright, newly furnished guest house in a peaceful neighbourhood just ten minutes from the centre by bus, where the affable owner Francesco greets every guest with good humour and a ready willingness to help.

A compact, well-located little guesthouse just a short walk from Cusco's Plaza Mayor, where attentive, warm-hearted staff, comfortable beds, and a decent included breakfast make up for the snug rooms and modest facilities.
- Miraflores, Peru
The staff hand guests a take-away breakfast box for early-morning flights, the rooms are spotlessly clean, and the Miraflores location puts the city's most beautiful streets within an afternoon's stroll.
- Miraflores, Peru
The hotel delivers friendly, personal service from named staff and satisfying home-style breakfasts, but reads as a clean, modern business hotel rather than a space with intimate character, warmth of materials, or the small-scale charm that defines true cosiness.
- Barranco, Peru
The hotel offers friendly service and comfortable rooms in a well-positioned Barranco location, but lacks the intimate character details, fireplaces, distinctive lighting, natural materials, or architectural charm, that would elevate it beyond a serviceable, characterless stay.
