This is a charming boutique hotel away from the hustle and bustle - but still within easy walking distance (10-15 mins) to major attractions such as the Basilica, main square, convent, and market. The garden is an oasis away from the crowds and noise of downtown. There is also a small heated pool with jets. Breakfast features a nice selection of fruits, yogurt, cereal, meat, cheese, olives and made to order eggs. The vibe is warm and unpretentious, very much like staying with friends - this is only enhanced by the staff. In particular, Carlos was always friendly, helpful and genuinely caring. He is a true gem.

Excellent service

Very clean room, friendly staff. Like staying in a beautiful colonial villa with lush gardens and beautiful antiques

Loved this place. Don’t even want to think how much place like this would cost in the States.

Well manicured gardens, spacious rooms. Walking distance ro the old town.

It's a very lovely property within walking distance of the city centre. There were a few things that made our stay just not as nice as I was hoping. 1. Smoking is allowed on the balconies and in the garden. While we were there a lady

Wonderful facility

Beautiful old mansion updated tastefully Excellent service

This place is so good, we left for a 3 hour drive to our next destination, and didn’t like it - so we came back the same day! Comfortable rooms, excellent food, nice garden and jacuzzi, and it’s about a 15 minute walk from the old city centre.

Property was beautiful and well maintained. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Buffet breakfast was lovely, staff offered a packed breakfast when I was leaving early for the colca canyon trek

The hotel is beautiful! It's like a garden in the courtyard. Love the breakfast. Handcraft coffee, order to make omelet and tropical fruit are exceptional for the price of the hotel. Hotel is very Very quiet. The best are the staff. They are exceptional helpful and frindly. Yes they all speak English.

Absolute hidden gem. A true Boutique Hotel. The breakfast is fabulous, the garden beautiful. It’s quiet. Owner lives on site and is a great resource. Conveniently located , only a 10 min safe walk to the Plaza de Armas. We highly recommend Villa Elisa.

I had a wonderful stay. Location is fantastic. 15 min walking distance from downtown, 25 mins from the airpot by taxi. The area is quiet, residential, near a park. The kindeness of the staff is remarkable. The hotel has a restaurant that offers a variety of tasty dishes and drinks. The decor of the dining room and the hallways is very nice, with lots of details and antique objects. There's a beautiful garden and a jacuzzi. Breakfast was also very good, with plenty of options, fruits, juices, eggs, etc. The place has a long and interesting history in the hospitality business. I enjoyed my stay and will definitely chose it again if I return to Arequipa.

I had a wonderful stay st Villa Elisa. The location of the hotel is perfect, in a quiet area, next to a park, just 15 min walking distance from Plaza de Armas. It is ideal. Also, the place is very nice and well kept by their owners and a very friendly staff. There's a garden with plenty of flowers, humming birds, a fountain and a jacuzzi. Jean-Louis is a wonderful host. He gave me all sorts of tips for my trip around Colca and Cotahuasi. He's very knowledgeable about the whole area!

The staff were super friendly and helpful. Breakfast was quick and amazing. Definitely support small hotels like this.

I would come back here to stay over and over. It’s a lovely property and the staff are excellent!

Espectacular casona de la antiguas, el decorado vintage muy bonito, un lugar encantador y muy buen servicio

Lovely property, away from the madness which means a little walk to all the amenities, friendly and helpful staff, would definitely stay again

Fantastic boutique hotel oasis - walking distance to the historical centre - but in a really quiet location - really enjoyed our stay and the incredible hospitality of the staff and owner JL - highly recommend.

Simply excellent!
