Review

This is a cosy and inviting hotel at the banks of Lake Titicaca, offering uninterrupted views of the lake and a convenient base from which to explore the surrounding area. Part of the Casa Andina group it forms part of one of Peru’s most well-established hotel chains. Although the rooms are standardised across the Private Collection properties, the design of this hotel with its terracotta exterior, stone walls and clay tiles, is much more in keeping with the altiplano area than the other larger hotels and for that reason we feel that is has a lot more character to offer!

Just a 7 minute drive or taxi-ride from the centre of Puno, the hotel is located outside of town in the same area as the Libertador and the Sonesta hotels. Positioned right next to the Lake, the hotel has its own private port and stunning views, which are especially spectacular when seen from the hotel’s sunny outdoor terrace.

The hotel is made up of 45 rooms and suites with a mixture of mountain and lake views. Rooms are simply decorated but come with lots of modern features, including cable TV, heating, coffee makers and oxygen upon request. The best of the Lake View Rooms come with private balconies, while the suites are more spacious and have a separate living area with a wood burning fire and large bathtubs.

Facilities at the hotel include a welcoming lobby and reception area, with sofas and a well-stocked refrigerator-bar, where guests are invited to sit and relax in the evenings. The hotel’s restaurant serving local Andean specialities is located on the floor below and is reached by walking through the hotel’s outdoor terrace. At night, open fires are lit in the lobby and restaurant, helping to contribute to the cosy and relaxed feel of the place.

Small hotel with great views and cosy feel

Some of the rooms feel slightly dated and a bit dark
