Cusco Plaza Hotel (Saphi)

Located in Cusco, Peru

Description

“The Cusco Plaza Saphi Hotel is located one block from the Plaza de Armas, in a colonial house of the nineteenth century, which has been restored retaining much of its traditional architecture. In it you can see the arches, columns and stone walls, an exquisite collection of colonial style.

Cusco Plaza Saphi is located within the historic center of Cusco, a few meters from the main square of Cusco. It has 49 rooms and three interior courtyards which are ideal to rest while taking a refreshing coca tea mate.

You can use the patios or the dining room to enjoy a breakfast made with cereals, fruits, breads and Andean products that will allow you to get closer to the local gastronomy.

Despite being in the historic center of Cusco, you can enjoy the peace you need.

You will arrive walking to the main destinations of Cusco. During this walk you will see in front of our hotel, the Monastery and Church of Santa Teresa, baroque style of the seventeenth century, within walking distance you will discover popular art shops, restaurants, cafes. Very close to the hotel you can also find the beautiful Plaza de Regocijo and the Church and the Merced Museum.”

Chip’s Notes

To be brutally honest, this hotel was passable, but not wonderful. Services were fine, mid-line for this part of Peru. Service was good, the water was hot, and the room was clean, but I feel it needed a little more tender loving care. I will say the breakfast was first rate, and there is something to be said for that. If you’re staying in Cusco and need a conveniently located, clean hotel, this will certainly do just fine. Cusco Plaza Hotels operates two locations, Saphi, where we stayed, and Nazarenas.
