About
Saqray Hostel - Cusco
Saqray Hostel sits on a quieter street above Cusco's historic center, a short walk from the Plaza de Armas and the San Cristobal church. It's close enough to reach the main sights on foot, yet tucked away for a calmer night's sleep — though some rooms face the street and can pick up noise.
The hostel offers a mix of shared dorm beds and private family suites, some with views over the city. A complimentary breakfast is served in a room with a wide outlook, and guests consistently mention the coffee. On-site you'll find a restaurant, a lounge with board games, luggage storage, and a locker room. Staff are frequently praised for going out of their way — storing bags, arranging tours, and helping with logistics like PCR tests.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
3 reasons to book- Breakfast with a view — Served from a room that overlooks the city, with coffee, fruit, yogurt, bread, and sometimes smoothies — guests mention it often.
- Helpful, empathetic staff — From storing bags around trekking schedules to helping with PCR tests and offering emotional support during a family crisis, the team is consistently praised.
- Quiet yet central location — Tucked away on a hill above the main square, close enough to walk everywhere but removed from the busiest streets.
–
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Street noise in some rooms — Rooms facing the street can be loud at night, and one guest suggests bringing earplugs.
- Uphill walk from the center — The hostel is on a hill, so getting back from the main square means a short but steady climb — a consideration at Cusco's altitude.
- No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
