    We had a fantastic stay at this hostel. The owners were extremely helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. The hotel facilities were excellent, particularly the comfortable and spacious rooms. The location was perfect, just a few blocks away from the main square, on a charming cobblestone street. We really enjoyed our time exploring the beautiful surroundings of this city. the staff were accommodating, the accommodation was clean, and the value for money was great.

    All was great.

    Kind staff, hot shower, great location near Mirador de San Cristobal and Calle de Siete Borreguitos, lovely decor in rooms, wonderful quiet location.

    Nothing I didn't like to be fair.

    Great value for money, spacious and clean private rooms with comfy beds. Convenient location on a peaceful pedestrian street. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help.

    Breakfast option could be more varied or include more choices.

    I keep coming back because Gaia House Hostel is the best. The staff is kind - they helped my old parents. It suits me perfectly with Wi-Fi, laundry, flat-screen TV, and a 24-hour reception. I'll be back for Easter!

    The room at Gaia House Hostel was cozy and comfortable, with a flat-screen TV and free WiFi that kept me connected. I loved having a patio to enjoy my morning coffee and the shared bathrooms were clean and well-stocked with toilet paper. I felt right at home in this room.

    Personally, I would have preferred a private bathroom instead of the shared one. But hey, that's just my preference and I'm sure others would still enjoy the facilities.

    The owners were super cool and helped us book epic tours and taxis, they even spoke English! The rooms were spacious and had a separate sitting area, which was perfect for our group of friends. The location was sick, just a few blocks from the Plaza de Alma's. Can't wait to go back and stay here again!

    The one thing that would make it even more lit for young party-goers like us would be if there was a chill common area or rooftop terrace where we could hang out and have fun with other travelers. It would be so dope to meet new people and have a sick party vibe.

    Located in a charming neighborhood, this small, quiet hostel is exceptionally clean. With cozy common areas and a kitchen, it offers a comfortable stay. The dorm beds, resembling little bedrooms, provide a restful sleep. The staff is kind and helpful. The uphill location is convenient for visiting nearby attractions.

    The staff were super cool and hooked us up with the best tours in Cusco. We went to the insane Rainbow Mountain and explored the ancient ruins of Machu Picchu. The rooms were cozy and chill, with plenty of space for all our swag. Can't wait to go back!

    If there's one thing we wish was better, it's the party scene at the hostel. We were ready to turn up and have a blast, but the vibes were a bit low-key.

    The staff spoke so many languages at the front desk! I felt like I was at a UN summit. Breakfast and WiFi were included, making it the perfect hideout to avoid interacting with other travelers.

    Dust bunnies and dirty floors under the bed. I guess they were keeping them as pets.

    The staff at the front desk spoke so many languages, it felt like I was at the United Nations. And the free WiFi was a godsend for my Instagram addiction.

    The shower water temperature was a delightful surprise; it's amazing how a little cold water can wake you up in the morning.

    This hostel was mind-blowing! The location was super, in a beautiful area only a short walk from the main square. The double bed was jaw-droppingly comfy and spacious. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The bathroom facilities were top-notch, the best we've ever had. Plus, they stored our luggage during our excursions. Highly recommend!

    I had an amazing experience staying at a cozy place in Cusco. the showers were the best I've had in Peru and the whole place was always incredibly clean. the kitchen and other facilities were well-equipped, and the owners, Jose and Gonzalo, were friendly and helpful. They provided us with all the information we needed about Cusco and Peru. the location was perfect, in a cute area just a few blocks from Plaza de Alma's. I would definitely come back and stay here again. Great value for money and a peaceful atmosphere. Cons: Nothing bad to say 😊.

    I had a fantastic stay at Gaia House! The location in San Blas was perfect, a quiet and beautiful neighborhood. The dorm beds were like little bedrooms with curtains for privacy. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. The hostel was exceptionally clean, and the bathrooms had lots of shelves and hooks. I especially enjoyed the hot shower with good pressure. Gaia House is one of my favorite hostels, and I highly recommend it!

    Totally recommend this hotel.
