Great location, nice room, friendly helpful staff, decent food.

Wow it is noisy at night (8pm to 4am) you need earplugs to sleep. They have tried to reduce the sound with special doors and it helps but it’s still a rager on the street all night and then the taxis all start honking outside once the music stops.

Fantastic location with really lovely, helpful, friendly staff. Spotless and very comfortable room, with lots of hot water. Really good breakfast, and it was nice to have options so not the same thing every day. Le Foyer also gave us a good packed breakfast when we had to leave extra early for a day trip. The view at breakfast is unbelievable, simply stunning and the reason why it is also a sunset bar. Excellent choice of lighting in the rooms, a well thought through touch.

There is a bar/restaurant downstairs in the inner courtyard and bars/restaurants close by on the streets around the hotel, so it can be noisy, but this is made very clear before booking so we knew all about it. The staff at reception hand out ear plugs as soon as you arrive.

Perfect location, nice staff, comfy room with veranda, rooftop restaurant where they also serve breakfasts. Good value for money.

Just a few observations: 1) the hotel is on a busy street. The room is equiped with additional noise cancelling screen which helps a bit, but we stayed on sutarday night and the party was going on till the morning. So if you like calm places, you may want to reconsider the choice. 2) brakfast was very nice but it is served a la carte so we had to wait ca. 30 minutes after placing the order. You shoul take it into concideration when you have a tight morning schedule.

Clean room and facility. Location was good. Mattresses comfortable. Hot water. Comp Breakfast (w room) was nice and the restaurant views on the top floor of the snow cap mountains were very nice. Had a nice sunroom, w TV, on top floor we used while waiting for our room to get clean (we arrived extremely early).

Saturday night there was all sorts of different noises. Cars beeping loud, a group singing happy birthday repeatedly and being loud till about 3am, construction below in courtyard from neighboring cafe open to the rooms…it just seemed like the hostal should control some of these loud noises. Sunday night everything was quiet. Water pressure was weak. Small kids toilet in room. Should have a fan in the room as there is no window the opens to the outside. There were two different doors we left open to the outside when we were not sleeping. Had approx 100 channels but the channel guide on the remote didn’t work and there was not an information tv channel guide. Nobody knew what channel ESPN was.

A good stay in the old centre of Arequipa, with a nice terrace for breakfast and more with a wonderful view of the mountain peaks. Very welcoming staff and options for luggage storage, also a wide range of trips around the city as well as few-days treks that the hotel can arrange even at the last minute. Some rooms may be noisy as the balcony gives into a lively street, the house has the typical architecture of the neighbourhood, but that is the price of being in the heart of the city, and we got used to it quickly.

This is a wonderful hotel set in the heart of the old historic centre of Arequipa. We loved staying here and it is literally a 5-minute walk to the Cathedral and Main Square. It is pretty much the perfect location for exploring the city and for drop offs / pick ups. The staff are so lovely and helpful and nothing is too much trouble. The hotel has a colonial olde-worlde feel to it and retains many original wooden features. The rooms are a good size and the showers are warm. The roof terrace is a great space and we enjoyed some nice breakfasts up there with views across the city. This morning we were the first ones up there for breakfast and there was a hummingbird flying around which was beautiful to see. The hotel feels chilled out and relaxing and served as a good base for when we were out during the day. Make sure you go towards the church which has the backdrop of the mountains and to your right go into the courtyard restaurant area where there is a circular iron staircase that takes you to the rooftop where you can get some gorgeous photos - especially in the evening light. We would definitely recommend Le Foyer.

This is quite a nice place to stay in Arequipa, the rooms were comfortable and the atmosphere was good. The rooftop has a great view. Location was very good.

Breakfast - it took a long time to be served, around 1h. The problem is that it's served only for a short period of time, between 6.30 to 8.30, and everyone comes at the same time, and not enough staff to cover it. I believe this could be improved. If you have plans for the morning consider that it may take a while.

The location of the hotel is in the middle of the city center of Arequipa - its close to everything. The staff was very helpful with booking activities for us and for preparing breakfast for us the days we were leaving before the breakfast had started. The room was spacious and clean, and we could not hear any noise from the street. The breakfast was very good! And the restaurant at the roof top was also very good, so we ate there every evening. Also a good spot for watching the sunset

We had a really lovely stay at Le Foyer! We arrived early in the morning after our night bus and were allowed to check in straight away since our room was ready - which made a HUGE difference for us! Our room was well sized with a great balcony, and we were given the option to have breakfast there if we preferred. The laundry service was well-priced and speedy. Rooftop bar had a great selection of food at very reasonable priced, and had a great view over the city. Tasty breakfast options. Free coffee available all day. Plenty of options available for organised trips. Fab location only 5 mins walk from the main square. All the staff were really welcoming too - thank you all!

Can't fault it

They were able to provide us with an open space to rest prior to our check-in as we arrived super early. This gave us a head start to explore the city. The staff was nice and friendly. The location is very central to the city, everything is accessible at a walking distance.

Our soup at the dinner took more than half an hour. We ordered veg soup and there was beef in it. The showers are way too small.
