Le Foyer Arequipa

Amazing atmosphere in the heart of the city! I enjoy my stay here and definetely advice everyone☺️

I couldn't find a room, but I took a tour with them, had breakfast (delicious!), good service, and a cozy terrace with a super view.

Poor service, I don't recommend it.

We stayed at this hotel and, honestly, our experience was not a positive one. The rooms lack ventilation, and while the lack of air conditioning is understandable, the windows are very low and overlook the passage of guests, without grilles. This makes it impossible to open them to ventilate or cool the room without fear of someone breaking in. The bathroom only had hand soap; basic toiletries were missing. Breakfast is only served until 8:30 AM. We believe this information should be clearly communicated at the time of booking, especially if it is included in the package. After a night of traveling, we were unable to get adequate rest for this reason. The hotel is also very poorly soundproofed and is located on a busy nightlife street; earplugs are highly recommended. At reception, we were told that the opening hours are for tour guests (6:30 AM to 8:30 AM). However, we had also booked three tours with them in two days: the first was in the afternoon and would have allowed us to sleep in longer. The next day, despite being told to arrive at 6:30 for breakfast, it was served at 6:50 and coffee at 7:00, forcing us to rush unnecessarily. The only positives are the tours organized through the property and the very efficient laundry service, but it's quite expensive compared to other accommodations where we've had laundry done for a third of the price. We believe there are several areas for improvement.

Just steps from the Plaza de Armas. Very close to every point of interest. There are many places to enjoy an aperitif or a meal. Free luggage storage is available before and after check-in.

Top hostel with super good service and nice rooms! Highly recommended!

Excellent place, everyone very friendly, just like the photos, highly recommended.

Stayed here for two nights (Sunday–Tuesday). After reading the previous reviews, we actually tried to switch hotels because of the noise complaints, but unfortunately couldn’t. We figured, “It’s a Sunday and Monday night, how bad could it really be?” but the noise was honestly unbelievable. The live band across the street played at full volume until 5:00 a.m. Earplugs, noise-cancelling headphones, none of them made a difference. You could hear everything. Traffic sounding like it was inside the room, people walking by in flip-flops, multiple songs competing from the reception area, the upstairs restaurant, and the bars across the street. Our room faced the street, so that may have made it worse. The hotel has tried to help with a sliding door sound barrier, but unfortunately it didn’t reduce much noise at all. The room itself was decent. Good size with a smart TV, balcony, and standard amenities. The bathroom, however, was extremely cramped. I’m 5’3” and 115 lbs, and I had to stand partly in the shower just to brush my teeth comfortably. There was also a noticeable sewer smell throughout the bathroom. On the positive side, the breakfast was excellent with lots of options and surprisingly the first place in Peru where we were served more than one egg! You can also order additional breakfast items for a reasonable price. The location was okay: not too far from the main square, but it’s on a very busy street. Honestly, if it weren’t for the noise, this probably would have been a fantastic stay. If you do book here, I’d strongly recommend requesting a room away from the street or going to party with the band itself.

A very well-located, quiet hotel with incredible views and amenities, close to the center of Arequipa. The staff was very friendly and helpful; we will be back!

Excellent service, very central, clean, and the best part is the breakfast on the rooftop.

Very nice hotel! Friendly staff and beautiful views!
