During the year 2017 I have stayed in hotels on four continents and in over a dozen national and international cites and the best hospitality anywhere was at El Mirador! The owner Talma is a "hands on", greet you at the door, take care of your every need owner. This was my fourth time to stay at El Mirador - it was the first hotel I stayed in when visiting Tarapoto and I would not go anywhere else. The rooms are clean and comfortable; the breakfast on the rooftop is amazing - fresh fruit juice, fresh baked breads, wonderful cheese and olives and eggs, all with a great view of the nearby mountains and included in the very reasonable room price: and the staff members are all polite and responsive and genuine.
If you visit Tarapoto I highly recommend staying with Talma and staff at El Mirador!
