Hotel close to Plaza de Armas
Whatever you do, don't accept Room 118 or 116, they are Too close to the lobby and therefore very Loud. Also 118 Has no Windows. The only good thing here is the breakfast.

Two night trip to Arequipa
The stay was a longer one for such a quick city to see. The breakfast was good and plentiful. The water was hot and the room was always clean and well put together. There are no windows, so it does get really dark at night. The hallway is beautiful to the rooms, but the doors closing and the voices do echo down the hallway. The water heater was behind our room and would go off when anyone in the hotel would use hot water and that was loud. It kept me up all night one night. The front desk help was very friendly and helpful, but couldn't help the noise. It is a while walk down the hotel (20 minutes) from the Plaza.

When we got there the hotel was empty. I got my reservation and the staff pretend that the hotel was completely full, and that the could not find my reservation, luckily for me I printed out the confirmation, and suddenly they found my reservation. No natural light in the rooms. We have to asked for hot water.

Highly recommended
Excellent hotel, in a refurbished casona in the colonial quarter. Has all the charm of it. The only things that differs it from a 4 star one is that there is just a window in the roof. But then for 20-25 Euro per night this is the best value for quality I've probably encountered on my many travels. Highly recommended.

I attended a conference and although my stay was for one night the service was very good. The room was well put away and I was able to enjoy a good night's sleep. - was supposed to stay at the colonial and due to being overbook I stayed at aQ. The staff ensured my experience was a good one

Excellent
It has everything you expect from a hotel- clean, comfortable, breakfast, wifi- for a very affordable price. It is not a luxury hotel- but sure does the job when all you need is a place to stay while enjoying the tourist attractions in town, because in reality, while in Arequipa you will be so busy and will only have time to come and sleep. This hotel provides that very well in the "American comfort " way.

Overall hotel was good, but beds were not that comfortable abd the pillow was ridiculous. Also, the rooms are off a central courtyard which provides the only natural light but is also open to courtyard, so noise and light in the evening were a bit of an issue. The breakfast was quite good and location was excellent.

Nice building but poor service
The room was beautiful and mostly clean, but the woman at the front desk was not very friendly or helpful. We tried to ask about good restaurants and small stores near by and she always looked annoyed that we were asking for her help. The beds were very comfortable thought and the shower was excellent, once they turned on the hot water for us. Overall, pretty good but I might try somewhere different next time I'm in Arequipa.

Really nice and charming hotel
We loved our stay at Casona Plaza Colonial. Staff was nice, breakfast was great (however, there is only breakfast from 6-9, which was a little early for us, since we enjoyed the city at night as well) and the rooms was a little small, but very comfortable. We would love to return!

Very comfortable Hotel and great value
We were really impressed withis building. It is certainly old and I bet has some history. If our Spanish was up to scratch and the staff had more English then we might have got more info on the history. Our room was a large double ensuite. Overlooking the courtyard. The staff were very willing. Our pick up for the bus was really late arriving and the young girl made several phonecalls on our behalf. Highly recommended. This hotel.
