The room was reasonably spacious, although I expected it to be slightly larger. The hotel is stunning, and its location is ideal—just a 5-minute walk from the main square, making it perfect for exploring Arequipa. Unfortunately, we only got to enjoy the excellent breakfast once due to early departures on the other mornings. However, the incredibly friendly staff kindly prepared takeaway options for us.

can’t think of much, though perhaps the shower could be improved. It’s separated from the rest of the bathroom by a curtain, which makes it easy for water to splash outside. However, it’s not a significant issue.

What a charming bedroom! It was 200 years old but renovated and had modern facilities and a garden. The bedrooms were comfortable, and we had lots of space for ourselves and our bags. There was still a mezzanine with another bedroom that we did not use. We would have to depart early the next day, but they prepared food bags we could use while travelling. However, we still miss the opportunity of having another good breakfast in their meal area. We also left our dirty clothes to be washed and dried in their laundry service, which was fast, not so expensive, and efficient. The localization in the city was superb, and we will definitely go back to Arequipa and Casona Solar one day.

The bathroom had just the sink, no countertop, and it was difficult to dispose of our bathroom stuff around the sink. However, there was enough space to have a countertop, which would have helped a lot. There was no dush for the toilet vase, which is necessary for people who cannot use toilet paper. The shower box had two curtains, which was not a problem at all. However, the external curtain was so dark that it impaired the vision inside the shower box, which had no light inside it. They should definitely change the external curtain for another one with a much lighter hue. We have nothing against using incense to aromatize environments. However, the hotel should choose incense with a lighter smell.

We spent 4 nights in this hotel and had a fabulous time. It is truly lovely with one front courtyard surrounded by rooms and the back garden courtyard with an incredible cactus garden. Very quiet and immaculately clean. Bed was super comply, sheets crispy clean and pillows great. It is located a couple of blocks off the main square, 2 blocks from the central market. Breakfast was American with your choice of eggs, etc. shower pressure great and lots of hot water. We would return without a second thought. Hosts were friendly, professional and helpful.

We liked everything.

I travel with my adult daughter and our stay was really great. My daughter was sick and the team of Casona Solar was extremely helpful. Furthermore, the location is really great. It is totally central and when you exit the hotel you feel right away the pulse of the city. But in the very moment you enter the hotel you feel an oasis of calmness and quietness. The garden is really beautiful. The breakfast buffet was little but really delicious. We were especially happy about the option of dark bread. The Wifi was very good and reliable. The water was warm and the room temperature was nicely warm.

The hotel is well located, two blocks from the main square and two blocks from San Camilo market which is a good option if you want to buy a quality sombrero (huge range), or fruit and veg. Just one block away is the large supermarket, “Mas Ventas” in Calle Dean Valdivia where I top up on packeted superfoods to take home (maca, lucuma, alcachofa, camu camu, purple corn, chia, canela, cacao, sacha inchi etc. averaging $2-4 each). Good range of quality alpaca clothing outlets in AQP at up to 50% discount if you shop around, such as Patapampa, Kuna, and Incalpaca. Casona Solar’s buffet breakfast is excellent, also with omelette/scrambled eggs made to order, plus fresh coffee served to table. Rooms are comfortable and clean. It’s quiet. The staff and manager are very helpful with good customer service focus. The hotel is good value for money. Whenever I’m in AQP I stay here. This was my third visit.

We loved our stay in this historic hotel. The suite was beautiful, spacious, clean and comfortable. The courtyards provided lovely, quiet places to relax, and the hotel's location is perfect for sightseeing in Arequipa. The staff is very kind and always present and ready to help.

My one complaint is that the hair dryer installed in the bathroom didn't work and the "backup" that I'd brought struggled to function with the voltage adapter. A minor inconvenience, but this is an important amenity to some guests and was listed among those offered by the hotel.

Excellent location in the heart of the old town: we could do all visits by foot. The staff was very friendly and attentive, they provided excellent service. The bedding was very comfortable, pillow and comforter were very soft. The premises are beautiful, our bedroom like the shared patios. Breakfast was eggs to order, fresh fruits, Greek yogurt, slice of cheese, slice a ham, cereals, olives, pickles, fresh juices.

All rooms are beautiful but without windows - light comes from an opening in the ceiling. The bathroom was very small and the tiles very slippery.

Lovely rooms, beautiful courtyards where you could sit in sun from 8am till 3pm in winter, which many people did throughout the day. Very helpful staff. Quiet perfect location. Close to all the main sites and mercado. Half hour walk to the lookouts and picsnterias eg Tio Dario (recommended). Good breakfast.

Rooms have no windows. You can leave your doors to courtyard open - they have privacy screening. Our room had small light well directly overhead which let some light in during the day but was like an early morning spotlight - good for early morning wakeups.

The building is unique—a restored colonial building dating back to 1702. The room was comfortable and equipped with a small kitchen and a remodeled bathroom. The only complaint would be that this arrangement has little to no privacy between the two bedrooms. The courtyard and the garden are beautiful and very well maintained. The location is close to Plaza de Armas, The breakfast was really good, made to order with eggs, fruits and veggies, yogurt, bread, and olives. The staff is friendly and helpful. We recommend this place to the other travelers!

Incredible courtyards and gardens, with very roomy castle -like rooms with thick beautiful white sillar rock walls, make for a very quiet and cozy good nights sleep. Very historic home indeed! Breakfast served is delicious and fresh, I had a wonderful, peaceful stay in this magical oasis in the center of Arequipa. Staff was very helpful and fun to talk to. Can’t wait to return!

I enjoyed everything about my 3 nights at the Hotel Casano Solar in Arequipa, PerĂş !!
