Overview

Casa Andina Select Arequipa is located in Arequipa's historic city centre and lies just opposite the Plaza de Armas, the city’s main square which is characterised by grand ex-colonial buildings. There are two other Casa Andina hotels in the city, and this one is a comparatively mid-range option. While the hotel is set in a historic building with its façade featuring two stories of pretty arched colonnades, the rooms have a simple, modern feel and offer plenty of creature comforts.

There are a total of 58 air conditioned rooms, some with terraces and some without. All rooms come with amenities such as a minibar, an LED TV, a hairdryer and tea and coffee making facilities. Rooms are generally arranged with two twin beds, though rooms without a terrace can be converted to a queen bed formation instead. Many of the rooms offer views of the Plaza de Armas and the immediate area’s many well preserved historic buildings.

The comprehensive facilities include a well equipped fitness centre, a rooftop pool and a computer room. Complimentary buffet breakfasts are served, with additional meals available for an extra cost. La Plaza Restaurant is the hotel’s one and only eatery; it’s a relaxed, casual restaurant serving an array of freshly prepared meals with a focus on local specialties and Peruvian cuisine. The restaurant has a fully stocked bar and offers open-air dining amidst the hotel’s colonnades.

The many attractions of Arequipa lie right on the hotel’s doorstep - there are scores of museums and magnificent, beautifully maintained churches to visit, along with bustling markets and diverse collections of restaurants, bars and cafes. Further afield is the spectacular Colca Canyon, one of the world’s deepest canyons, and there are several volcanoes that border the city, including the snow-capped El Misti.

Children are welcome at the hotel, and although there are no particular facilities for youngsters, there's plenty for all age groups to enjoy in Arequipa and beyond.

  • We had such a good holiday. You did a fantastic job!

    The house in Marrakesh was ridiculous. We effectively had it to ourselves. The accommodation was borderline palatial.

    I actually think that the time we had in Marrakesh was sufficient. We could potentially have done a day by a pool but I think we’d done enough souk-ing by the end of Day Two.

    The hotel in the mountains was a shade more rustic than I was expecting, but all great fun. Stunning views. The guide / mule / cook team were excellent and our guide (Hassan) tailored the treks to our capabilities well. He was superb, and really made an effort with the kids. The second and third day of trekking were particularly good. Such an adventure for the kids.

    All the logistics worked seamlessly. Every aspect went like clockwork. Top marks. The advice on tipping was also much appreciated (I hate thinking that I’m getting mugged off or am potentially not giving enough…).

    From my seven-year-old son:

    I thought it was GREAT. The food was amazing and the culture was very interesting. My favourite bit was scrambling up rocks in the Atlas Mountains.

    In retrospect, I’d probably do the trip in reverse. Flopping on the roof terrace after the rigours of the mountains would have been even more satisfying.

  • We just wanted to thank you for an absolutely amazing holiday. Everything went exactly to plan and we were blown away with the quality of the guides, transport and accommodation. The itinerary was perfect for our family with a great mix of guided and free days and the different destinations complemented each other well. We will definitely be using Tourdust again for our next trip! Particular highlights were the Ha Long Bay cruise, Hanoi, and the morning cycle tour in Siam Reap
