Services & Amenities

Picol Hostal holds the Gold's Q'ente 2015 for Touristic Quality Services and an additional award for environment practices. The 24-hour front desk provides luggage storage, safety deposit boxes, and multilingual tour desk advice. Airport shuttles to Alejandro Velasco Astete Airport (3 km away) are arranged for an extra fee, and guests booking five or more nights receive a free taxi to the airport on check out.

Rooms & Comforts

All rooms have private bathrooms with 24-hour hot water, cable TV, and a heater for Cusco's cold nights. Daily housekeeping provides clean towels and fresh linens, and guests also have access to a fridge and microwave. The rooms offer well-lit, well-ventilated spaces with tasteful décor.

Breakfast & Dining

A complimentary Continental breakfast with tropical fruits is served in a breakfast area with rustic red-bricked walls. Each breakfast is individually prepared by room number and covered with cling film, avoiding a chaotic buffet. For early tour departures, the staff packs a breakfast box with snacks.

Location & Access

“I think this is a stellar choice in Cusco; it's quiet despite its central location. The service-focused approach really shines, particularly with helpful staff and extras like breakfast and even airport transport. For me, it represents excellent value.”
