Miguel was very nice! The interior is so nice - loved the paintings! Very cosy common areas. Can have hot tea any time. Have a microvave and a fridge. Have a laundry service. Have social activities in the bar every night. Breakfast is very nice and has a selection you can choose from. There is a nice view of the mountains in the mornings from the breakfast zone. Bar has a wide menu till 10pm (very delicious) and sells drinks till 2am. Receptionist available 24hrs. Common area has nice music on, but inside the rooms is very quiet. Beds are very comfortable with warm blankets, bed-light and plugs. All is very clean. Location is just in the center with plenty of shops, restaurants, and places of interest around. Have a free 2-hours walking tour around the city. The best homie atmosphere gives a feeling of being welcomed.

Beds in the big room were magnificent. Really sound design and a curtain to dim the light and sounds. Best hostel beds I've experienced. Breakfast was also good and staff was helpful and nice.

Kosko Casa was an unexpected gem. I booked it after having seen the beautiful pictures of the place on booking; despite being a new hostel with only a few reviews, it gave me the impression of the kind of spot I would like to stay at. It wasn't in the heart of Cusco like most hostels, and i had a feeling i would benefit from more views and less tourists. I was right :) Romulo, Helga and Marco made me feel welcome from the first moment I met them. Romulo knows every fascinating bit of history there is to know about Cusco and the surrounding areas, he was thrilled to show me around and share with me his unbelievably vast knowledge; Helga's cooking, her attention to details, her quiet but killer sense of humour, made my stay feel even homelier; and finally Marco, one of a kind - a funny, attentive, lighthearted presence in such an already warm environment. The hostel is of course still quite new; during my stay (had planned to leave after one night, ended up staying over a week) I saw everyone's relentless efforts to make the place even efficient, the best that it can possibly be - and it was already so so close :) I recommend it to whoever is craving to learn more about Cusco's history and tradition, its incredible ruins and cerimonial sites, to anyone looking for a spot equally peaceful and vibrant; truly a familiar place away from home.

had a wonderful stay at Casa Terra. The accommodation is extremely well maintained and beautifully set within restored historic walls right in the center of Cusco. I could walk everywhere which made exploring the city very easy. The check in process was flexible and smooth, and I received many excellent local recommendations that made my stay even better. The hosts were exceptionally attentive and friendly. They took real time to help with every question and made me feel genuinely welcomed. Casa Terra is a place with great character, comfort and warm hospitality. I would happily stay here again and can recommend it without hesitation.

All hostels in Cusco

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
