Top Marcara Hotel Reviews

San Sebastian Hotel Boutique

San Sebastian Hotel Boutique

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed at the San Sebastian Hotel while acclimating for the Huayhuash trek. The San Sebastian is like a mini oasis in Huaraz. Behind unassuming metal doors, is a cozy and peaceful hotel that regularly hosts hikers from around the world. The staff are relatively helpful and although not every staff member speaks English, they do try their best to understand and assist guests. The rooms are clean and comfortable, the WIFI is reliable, and there are electrical sockets to charge electronics. The hotel is not as close to the town center as some other hotels, but it's still just a 15 minute walk to Plaza de Armas, the town square. I enjoyed my stay at San Sebastian."

"I had a very pleasant say! Staff was very courteous and helpful. The neighbourhood is quiet, clean and there is a police station 100m away so I felt very safe during my visit. The only thing I would say is that the walls were quite thin especially around the bathroom so you could hear the street dogs barking outside at night and other guests showering & talking when you were in there. Overall, it’s one of the best options in the area."
