We had a wonderful time staying at Casa Tunki! We stayed in a private room and utilized the unisex shared bathroom. Our beds and linens were comfortable and there was enough space in our room to lay out our suitcases as we needed to repack. There was also housekeeping services who made the private room when we went out to explore (I didn’t know there was housekeeping service so this was a nice surprise). The courtyard patio is beautiful. Breakfast is included and I highly recommend you attend! My favorite was the poached egg on toast. The coffee and pineapple juice was also wonderful. I was told that the chef sources organic ingredients from the Sacred Valley :)
The only critique I have is that the wifi was a little weak in our room; the connection was stronger on the balcony. Not a big deal.
Location wise, they’re on top of a hill and is a close walking distance to the central square. There are some cute speciality shops and cafes nearby the hostel as well.
The staff was absolutely incredible. From check in, during our stay, to check out, we felt very cared for. They helped us carry our 20 kilo (43 lbs) suitcases up the stairs when we checked in as well as when we checked out. They were excellent communicators, helpful, friendly, and so kind.
Overall, I throughly enjoyed my stay at Casa Tunki and would book here again the next time I come to Cusco!
This is actually my second time staying here, but my first review.
To start with the location is really close to everything. If you go south two blocks you will be at Plaza San Francisco. San Francisco is where many local activities happen daily and on the weekends (street performers, bands, tribal dances, etc.). San Fran area is also where you will find the Cusco Theatre (very good tours visit Cusco), restaurants at good prices, barbershops, and clothing shops too. If you go west about 2-3 blocks you will be in the Plaza De Armas area. This is the most popular area in Cusco (bars, clubs, restaurants, museums). If you go southwest about 4 blocks you have the San Pedro market where you can buy almost anything under the sun.
The owners are very personable and are a beautiful reflection of the Cusco people overall. Also, the staff speak very good English. They assisted me with places to go and how to get there, ticket buying for Macchu Pichu, restaurant recommendations, and helped me with tons of little things that saved me time and money.
The facilities are very clean and very cozy. The mattress on my bed was so comfortable, and the sheets were always fresh. I enjoyed my breakfast every morning, and the coffee was good too.
Overall, I loved my stay. I will definitely stay here again.
It is for people that want a nice comfortable place to stay and are looking for great service at a good price. (in my humble opinion )
