The property is high up but just take it slow and you will be fine, and once you see the views all is good. He can give you directions to give to the cab drivers to get you close to the property if you prefer. Ten minute walk down to Plaza de Armas

Carlos was the most amazing,friendly, helpful host. The views over Cusco are amazing. One room has its own private terrace and there are two more public terraces. San Blas is a great area. Many restaurants near by. We stayed there three times and he always stored our bags for us when we went off on a trip to Manu jungle and to hike the Inka trail. Even gave us advice on getting tickets to a football game!

The location was a but inconvenient. Many travel services offer to pick you up at your hotel, but this hotel is not accessible by car. In fact, you have to climb up like 5 flights of stairs to get there from the historic center, which was a bit annoying.

The room and the staff were amazing. The host helped me with restaurant recommendations and things to do if needed. He also provided coca leaves and tea which was helpful.

Found two rabbits being kept in a shed, conditions seemed unclean and the rabbits did not seem healthy and happy. It would be great if the living conditions for these rabbits were improved.

The host was very quick at responding and helpful. We were able to leave our bags after check out and the host booked us a taxi. The view from the balcony was really good.

It isn’t easy to get to by taxi. Most taxi drivers insist on dropping you off at San Blas square- which then requires a serious climb uphill. This is pretty unpleasant if you’re not used to the high altitude and have lots of luggage! We enjoyed our stay but it definitely isn’t a 3 star hotel.

The staff were incredibly helpful and lovely - letting us check in early and use the communal areas and store our luggage after we’d checked out. The hotel is conveniently located near to several great restaurants in San Blas and has great views over the city.

Perfect sty here, Carlos was super kind and helpful with local advice, ordering a taxi and storing our bags. Also nice touches like providing a thermos with hot water for our arrival so we could have some tea 😁. The kitchen was super helpful and saved us some money. Room balcony was lovely and also a really nice rooftop area. The area felt safe at night not too far from bars and restaurants- the stairs helped us prepare for Salkantay 🤣 There were loads of warm fleeces on the beds which made our stay cosy and comfy. Thanks!

Carlos was super helpful when we needed to extend our stay and leave our bags and the view was so lovely!

The pillows are very lumpy and not very comfortable. The shower temperature was always too hot or too cold and the water pressure was not very good. There isn't even a reading/night lamp, only an overhead light.

Well, when I first got to the airport the location sounded like it was way up on a mountain and I almost canceled. Its actually just a few minutes walk up the hill from cafes and restaurants, a few minutes more you can be in the main sightseeing area. Also it was very cheap. Only like $13 per night. And it has very nice views of the city.

Nothing! Tho if you don't like walking uphill, this might not be your hotel, quite a walk with stairs up to the hotel around 15-20mins from plaza de armas. But why are you even in cusco if you are not willing to walk up a little bit.

Rooms were clean, the owner Carlos was very accomodating to our request such as checking out very late + storing our luggages while we do our salkantay trek with no extra charge, he also helped us booked taxis after check out even before I could ask him. Views from the balcony and top floor were amazing! You could see the whole city from the night, during sunset and sunrise. Must stay! Carlos is a very good Host.

Cosy rooms, amazing views! Carlos was super helpful so we actually ended up staying here before and after our Salkantay hike. They're not kidding about the stairs up to this place! If you have a suitcase with wheels then you should get a taxi. With just backpacks you will be fine.

The view is amazing, the room has all you need, but I really need to give here a special comment about Carlos. He is amazing, really! Since before we’ve arrived he helped us with everything we need to make our trip perfect! Near Casa Mirador there’s a lot of great places to eat, and is near San Blas and Plaza de Armas, which is amazing! I highly recommend staying at Casa Mirador.

The kitchen was dirty. It was the other residents who were filthy because many didn’t clean after themself very good.

It was a nice spot with an amazing view of Cusco and the man who worked there was very happy to give us tips in the city.

Other reviews have mentioned the stairs, but we didn’t mind it because 1) that’s how you get the view and 2) Carlos always offers to help with luggage. One downside of the location is that you have to walk ~10 min to get picked up for tours (big buses won’t go to Plaza San Blas) and you’re often one of the first to get picked up, which could mean ~30 min less sleep given the 3-4am pick ups - that said, we thought it was well worth it, for the pros above.

The view is AMAZING. When you’re doing back-to-back day tours and need to choose between exploring the city or getting enough sleep, it’s nice to still be able to briefly enjoy the view of the city before passing out. Room is small but comfy, and has everything you need. Also, Carlos is the nicest host ever, and made us feel safe and welcome from the moment we landed in Cusco (he even talked to our Uber driver to make sure we didn’t get scammed).

Maybe you can find little bit cheaper hotels, but I don't regret money.

Super kind and helpful host Carlos. He's speaking English very well. Gave us some tips, provided us taxi driver from airport for 30sol and kept our backpacks during our trips. Beautiful view from balcony as in the photos. Hot water and some tea available. Comfortable bed. Recommended.

No negatives!

The friendliness and attentiveness from Carlos was incredible. He was very accommodating for our every need. The view from Casa Mirado was unmatched.

This place is exceptional value, Carlos the host goes above and beyond to get you settled. We didn’t have a room with a personal balcony but it was clean, comfortable, and we spent a lot of time on the roof deck - the view is something else. The hike up to the hotel from the main square is a fairly steep 8 mins but it’s worth it.

- Location is described so it is not something that we actually did not like however please keep in mind that coming back from the city might be a hike itself - Water pressure but again it is something I was expecting taking into consideration the location of the premise (on the hill)

We extended our stay in Cusco to the total of 5 nights and all the nights we spent in Casa Mirador - Amazing view from the top terrace, no problem with early check in / late check out, tea and hot water available for the guests. The owner, Carlos is really hospitable person, he patiently answered all of our doubts and questions regarding the Cusco city, He also helped with issues we had with one transportation company. If I would only come back to Cusco, I would definitely stay there. The location is a 10-15minutes from the city center yet it do not feel crowded and toursity.

Too much stairs in altitude like this were killing us.

The host Carlos is simply the perfect guy, the communication with him was abundant, he organized airport transport for us and gave us some useful tips. The view from the terrace. Amenities like hair dryer, iron and other stuffs were available for everybody to use. I spotted three cute rabbits there. Location has an astounding view of Cusco.

Showers do not get super hot . But hey you can't have it all!

The view here is one of the best in cusco and has the most comfortable beds in Peru.

Carlos, the owner, was everything you would like a host to be. He pays attention to all the details to make you feel at home. He greets you at the entrance of the facility, offers you some coca tea for free whenever you want, he even has a rack full of goodies for you to pick (soroche pills and other things). The rooms were lovely, really clean and tidy. The hot water works everytime. The hotel is in a very good location, near to Plaza de San Blas, which is one of Cusco's most attractive zones. As the name of the hotel says, it has a lovely balcony with outstanding views of the city. Would recommend to go at night time. Lovely place to stay, and the value is amazing.
