Overview

Maytaq Wasin is a charming and unpretentious boutique hotel conveniently located in central Cusco, just 100 metres from the city’s main historic square. The hotel is an ideal, comfortable base for anyone keen to discover this beautiful city's vast collection of cultural sights and attractions.

The hotel’s 24 rooms are generally well presented, with plenty of modern conveniences. All rooms come with an en-suite bathroom with shower, and some have a separate bathtub as well. There’s a flat-screen TV with cable channels, along with a hairdryer, desk and fan. Rooms offer a good amount of space and are available as twins or doubles.

Although the hotel is located in the city’s historic area, it has a decidedly contemporary character and is bright and airy throughout. Guests can enjoy pretty views of the surrounding area and nearby buildings from the shaded terrace, which is a lovely spot for relaxing at the end of a busy day. A complimentary buffet breakfast is served, with additional meals available at an extra cost. The hotel’s restaurant serves an array of locally inspired dishes, using only freshly prepared ingredients procured from close by.

There's plenty to do in the immediate vicinity and across Cusco. The nearby Plaza de Armas is the beating heart of the city, a lively square steeped in history, with numerous cafes, restaurants and communal seating areas. Wander through the city’s zigzagging streets to discover quirky eateries offering local delicacies and thriving markets selling all sorts of wares. There’s also an impressive collection of well preserved churches, cathedrals and other buildings of cultural importance, with many museums that reveal the city’s rich history.

Although there are no designated facilities for children at the hotel, families are more than welcome and there's plenty of entertainment for all age groups in and around Cusco.

  • I would like to say a massive thank you for organising our Vietnam trip. The itinerary and execution were superb, as was the attention to detail. I would also like to thank the agent who was on the end of my whats app chat (I have no idea who they were!) – always available, always quick to respond, and kept me updated regarding times etc. Also, the guides Dan (north) and Tien (mid) were just excellent, and we really enjoyed their company. The lady (whose name I have forgotten) who was our additional guide for the DMZ day was exceedingly good and made that day very special.

  • Trip was great and all the arrangements were excellent so thank you for all the help!

    Drivers and transfers were all good - on time and very good service on each trip.

    Accommodation was lovely - Douar Samra was amazing (weather could have been better but lovely regardless). Riad in Marrakesh was also great!

    All in all a great trip and we loved the variety of the mountains, Marrakesh and the coast.

    Thanks you once again!

  • I was also just about to email you to thank you and the team for arranging yet again, another wonderful experience.

    Mount Kenya was spectacular and wild - I think I prefer it to Kili in many ways. The entire support team was professional, friendly and all round fantastic in making sure that we were safe, well fed and well looked after. In particular, we would commend Peter the guide as well as Paul one of the porters who doubled-up as his deputy on summit day. Our route was often shrouded in mist and rain that rapidly gathered in the valleys and moorlands, and we were very impressed at how Peter managed to navigate us safely through all of that notwithstanding. In addition, we loved learning about the history of Mount Kenya from him in the evenings. And ofcourse, I was blown away by the lovely birthday surprise at the end complete with balloons and a delicious cake that had journeyed with us from day 1. One thing we might recommend because of the sudden change in weather (it would sometimes get extremely cold and wet) is for the equipment list to be a little bit more detailed in terms of its recommendations e.g. layers to be moisture-wicking, walking boots be waterproof, doubling up on socks to avoid blisters etc.

    El Karama is a beautiful conservancy and the lodge a true labour of love. Great hospitality in a relaxed environment. Delicious, fresh food. We enjoyed the drives, even if we didn't see much wildlife as the heavens opened on us for the last two outings. However, since it was very much geared towards families, I am not sure if I would stay again without kids. That said, I think it was perfect for a 3d/2n stay post mountain, and a much better choice than flying to the masai mara given the limited time we had.

    Our transits were smooth. Samuel the driver was always on time, drove safely and kept the vehicle clean.

    So it was a brilliant experience and one which I certainly will cherish for some time to come. It was great to work with you for a third time, and I certainly hope it won't be the last
