Un superbe séjour dans une ville magnifique
El Retablo est l’un des meilleurs hôtels que nous ayons réservé lors de notre séjour au Pérou. Vous y trouverez tout le confort : un lit immense, des rideaux opaques, de l’eau, une salle d’eau moderne avec des serviettes moelleuses ! Le personnel est adorable et vous aidera pour vos recherches d’excursions, resto... Le petit déjeuner est top, de bonne qualité et varié ! Le cadre est très accueillant et chaleureux. On a hâte d’y retourner et on vous recommande cette adresse sans hésiter !

This was an incredible place to stay in Cusco, I loved every part of this hotel! The atmosphere and aesthetic is beautiful, the colorful paintings everywhere really brighten the hotel. The breakfast is exceptional, particularly compared to other experiences in Peru. Finally, the hotel is conveniently located just a few blocks from the plaza and San blas.

Beautiful views, warm reception, colorful decor
Beautiful mountain views from the hotel room balcony. Front desk and security staff were very kind and helpful. There was quite a bit of noise from construction and celebrations on the plaza del armas. But would definitely recommend this adorable and colorful place.

Beautiful place
Really nice and beautiful place. We enjoyed several nights there and the staff was very kind. We also got a breakfast box when leaving early and could leave our bags. Note that it is on a hill, so not for old or disabled people. But that hill also gives a beautiful view of the city! (Not all rooms have a view)

One of the most unique hotels I've ever stayed in. The art in every room and outside at the property is amazing. Very unique and nothing like I have ever seen. Staff was informative and helpful. For the price you will not find a better hotel in Cusco

I loved the fact that it was clean and decorated with bright colors. I loved the staff. I think transportation to and from the airport should be included.

Beautiful decor and close to main square
Unfortunately, I was suffering from altitude sickness while staying here, but the staff did everything they could to make me more comfortable. The hotel is beautifully decorated. Word to the wise though: don't think you're going to have an easy time lugging heavy bags up the two or three sreep blocks to access the hotel from town.

Cusco is Pretty cool.
We had a great stay in Cusco. This hotel was in walking distance to a lot and when we did need a taxi, they were very helpful in arranging that for us.

Loved the beautiful blue doors and painted flowers everywhere. The bed was amazingly comfy and we had a great view of the city. The breakfast, included in the stay, was delicious with lots of variety. The wifi was fairly weak due to the heavy stone walls and the property is up a steep cobbled side street so be prepared to walk (9 out of 10 taxis we asked refused the ride because the street is one-way and too steep).
