I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Cusco! Beautiful place and lovely helpful staff! Very walkable distance to the main square but just far enough away to be a quieter area. Also a nice walk/hike from the hotel to the ruins!

Maria at reception is the best! She helped our family with coordinating transportation and finding out information about Cusco. All of the staff were friendly and kind. The rooms and property are beautiful and extremely well maintained. The meals in the restaurant were delicious and a full breakfast was provided.

El Balcon is a nice hotel. However it is not reccomended for people with disabilities or problem with walking steep roads or climbing steps. The hotel breakfast is excellent and staff is very courteous and helpful.

A quiet, friendly corner with a view!
Ei Balcon was perfect for me. Time for myself and writing in a beautiful place; an excellent breakfast, a good supper and glass of wine if I wanted it. Friendly service and easy access to the centre, along with wonderful views. I hope I will have the chance to come back.

The best breakfast in Peru
A delightful place. Nice room in an historic building and the best breakfast we had in the whole of Peru: the formidable lady in charge of the restaurant was really keen that we had a nice meal. A pretty good location - about 15 minutes' walk from the main square but you wouldn't want to be any closer in than that, probably

The physical location in an old traditional house is great. Food was awesome. Rooms needed more places to store or hang clothes. Biggest negative was bathroom. The steam from the shower would accumulate and condense in the skylight. Then it dripped on you as you stood at the sink, brushing teeth, washing hands, etc. As a result, it had a very dank, unpleasant smell.

Pictures are deceiving. This "hostal" was located on a very dangerous road in Cusco. The road is so narrow that you're nearly struck by traffic entering or exiting the premises. The front door is locked and you must buzz your way into the property like a delivery person. There are no televisions in the room and generally everything is dated. The staff was rather rude upon our check-in. Breakfast was also sub-par. If I was forced to say something positive about this hotel, I would say their interior garden area is beautiful. It is also located only 5 or 6 minutes walking to Plaza de Armas. I stayed in Abittare hotel for 2 days prior to this stay and it was far superior. I recommend another hotel for your stay in Cusco.

Fantastic place to stay in Cusco. The second floor really offered us a good view of Cusco city with Andean backdrop. Breakfast was very good, with everything was made in house including yogurt, jam, coffee and hot breakfast.
