I had an incredible stay at Viajero Hostel Cusco, and I’m genuinely grateful for the amazing team that made my experience unforgettable.
First, a huge shoutout to Ever, who brought so much joy, energy, and fun to every activity. He organized everything perfectly... from the games to the tours, creating an atmosphere where everyone felt welcome, connected, and ready to enjoy the best of Cusco. Ever truly made the social experience exceptional!
I also want to highlight the impeccable cleanliness maintained by Roxana. Every corner of the hostel was spotless, and the rooms were always fresh, tidy, and comfortable. Her dedication and effort did not go unnoticedit made the entire stay feel safe, cozy, and extremely well cared for.

Stayed here twice before and after a trek. Very social, felt very safe and was staffed overnight, lots of spaces inside to sit and chill or work. Everywhere was kept clean and I appreciated little things like the railings to dry clothes or towels, the water refills and free coca tea, and that I could store my luggage securely whilst trekking. Staff all very friendly and helpful.

Great place to stay. They switched our rooms a few times which was a pain but fine regardless. The showers don’t have much water pressure and often are cold but that’s expected! The bar is fun and the atmosphere is lovely. Food is good, walking distance to everything.
