Hotel Torre Dorada Cusco

Delightful hotel

Our family had a wonderful stay at the Torre Dorada hotel in Cuzco. We were picked up at the airport and whisked away to a quiet and restful oasis after a night in the Lima airport. Peggy took wonderful care of us and made our stay the highlight of our vacation to South America. Her advice about the trip to Macchu Pichu, the city of Cuzco, restaurants and any thing else was always given thoughtfully and resulted in a great experience. I would stay here again in a minute and recommend it for anyone looking for a quiet hotel with excellent service.

Torre Dorada - The best service and care!

We just got back from Cusco 3 days ago. Peggy and her family at the Torre Dorada was exceptional in their service. Peggy answered all of my questions via email prior to my trip. The hotel was exceptional - very clean and orderly. Peggy and her 2 brothers were excellent help, from picking us up and dropping us off around town (all complimentary with your room), to the yummy daily breakfast, to helping us with tours, to picking a great taxi driver for a day trip to helping me when I had altitude sickness.

All aspects of our trip were wonderful due to the diligence and experience of Peggy. The hotel is about 5 minutes from downtown which was great as the neighborhood was clean and quiet. It's a newer hotel and fully non-smoking.

I highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a great place to stay with diligent care. It's truly like coming home to family. I absolutely, highly recommend the Torre Dorada!

Must Stay Here

If you are traveling to Cusco, you must stay at the Torre Dorada. You will not find such friendly and helpful staff anywhere else. Although it is not located in the city center, the hotel staff offer free transportation to and from the center and any other site in the city.

The rooms and bathrooms are clean, and the shower water pressure is great (and the water hot). The daily breakfast and free Internet are icing on the cake.

The staff will also help customers with travel arrangements, reservations, restaurants, and any other logistics for Cusco or elsewhere.

Fabulous service & great hotel

I would just love to tell all travellers what a wonderful experience we had in Cuzco, Peru. It is a fabulous country to stay in but our experience at Hotel Torredorada made it that much better if that is possible. Peggy at the Hotel Torredorada was wonderful. Her & her brothers went out of their way to make our stay extra special. Any where we wanted to go, they drove us. Any time we wanted to be picked up they picked us up. Anything we wanted to know they knew it. If they didn't know they found out for us. Peggy set up tours for us. We said yes to the tours we wanted & she got the tickets & arranged it all for us. We even got the best guide at Machu Pichu. She made sure our tours were great. After Cuzco we were going to Puno & she even let us know which tour company to go with for our island tour. Which was wonderful! Peggy's hotel was also excellent. It was spotlessly clean & the breakfast was wonderful. She suggested we rest when we arrived to adjust to the altitude. They picked us up from the airport & brought us back when we needed to go. She gave us great suggestions on restaurants & lots of other tips. I highly highly recommend Hotel Torredorada.

Excelente!!! Lo recomiendo

La Torre Dorada es un excelente hotel ubicado a 5 minutos de la Plaza de Armas en una zona residencial fuera del bullicio del centro del Cusco. Es un pequeño hotel de 4 pisos que lo hace muy familiar y acogedor. Es realmente nuevo.Las habitaciones son muy confortables, colchones buenos, sábanas muy limpias, estufa, conexión inalámbrica de internet en las habitaciones. Todas las habitaciones cuentan con baño privado.

Peggy y sus hermanos que son los dueños son muy amigables y serviciales. Se preocupan hasta del último detalle. Brindan secadora de pelo, agua natural en los dormitorios, bebidas calientes a discreción. El baño muy limpio y completo con agua caliente las 24 hrs. El desayuno se sirve en el cuarto piso con vista a la ciudad. Un desayuno buffet muy agradable y variado que se comparte con los otros huéspedes. El precio bastante adecuado para la ciudad del Cusco. Brindan servicio de recojo del aeropuerto y también te llevan a la plaza de armas. También dan servicio de lavandería.

No brindan almuerzos ni comidas salvo que lo solicites.

Un hotel a la altura de un cinco estrellas. Muy familiar y acogedor con servicio personalizado. También tienen oxígeno en caso se requiera.

Lo recomiendo sinceramente. Una muy buena elección!!!!!!

THE BEST IN PERU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This had to be the best place to stay in all of peru not just cusco. The rooms are beautiful and clean the service is the best that ive had in a hotel. The staff spoke english very well and knew the best places to eat and shop. not only is it all ive said but it is the most secure hotel in cusco they provide transportation at anytime of the night. Oscar the driver is very wise of the streets and funny. This family run hotel is 5 stars all the way. All in all the best stay in peru!!!!!

Terrific stay for families

My father and I recently stayed at Torre Dorada, and cannot say more about the personal attention and consideration that we were given by everyone at this family-run hotel. The small hotel is a few minutes from the main square, and members of the family agreeably arrange to pick you up and take you downtown as needed. Our room was simple, clean and comfortable, and the sunny breakfast room is a great place to exchange info with other guests, all of whom were friendly, and many there for extended stays. Peggy (who speaks English well) was very helpful facilitating many aspects of trip planning in Cusco and to Machu Picchu. She took extra care to ensure that we had reliable taxi drivers for day trips, and took a real personal concern in our enjoyable experience in Peru. This hotel is a terrific choice in busy Cusco.

Torre Dorada made our trip perfect

We literally just got back from Cusco, Peru, and all I got to say is: if you ever wanted to see Machu Picchu, GO! And if you stay in Cusco, stay at the Hotel Torre Dorada. The Hotel is charming, secure, and very very clean. My first impression was: this is a nice place and I feel safe here ( actually my wife's feelings). It is located in a quiet residential neighborhood about 5 minutes from the main square, which is a good thing because the Plaza de Armas can be noisy and a bit smokey due to the taxi cabs constantly circling the downtown area.

From the moment we were picked up at the airport, till the moment we were dropped off to depart, the staff at Torre Dorada was extremely helpful and courteous. A family run business, Peggy the owner, is very fluent in English, and ever concerned with your well being while in Cusco. Rosemarie, also fluent in English, was very helpful in arranging tours of the Sacred Valley (a must see), an impromptu City Tour of the ruins just above Cusco, and making Machu Picchu arrangements ( train tickets, bus ride up to ruins, entrance ticket and guide); all tours were extremely reasonable in cost. She even suggested before we arrived, that we spend a night in Aguas Caliente and take two days to see Machu Picchu. Glad we did!! The hotel she booked for us was clean and only cost $40. The best trout I've ever had was at the Feliz Indio in Aguas Caliente, and going back to Machu Picchu early the next morning before the crowds arrived was a must.

All I can say is Peggy and the Hotel Torre Dorada made our Cusco trip near perfect. The only thing I would do differently next time is stay longer; six nights was barely enough.

Favorite of favorites

Thank goodness we had trouble finding a good place in town because Torre Dorada is a lovey, immaculate little hotel in the safe, quiet suburb. Never was the relatively short distance from town a problem. It was only an asset for us. A family member would drive us into town and pick us up when needed though often we chose to take a taxi since they are very cheap. Although prices were two star, services were five star. The attention to every tasteful detail of the decor was a pleasure to eye and senses from the fine red wood used in the trim, floors and furniture, to the finely made spreads and curtains, to the beautiful polished antique staircase. I could go on and on. The wall around the hotel could initially deceive the traveler.

Peggy speaks perfect English as well as several other languages and helped us plan our trip before we left California. Not only did she meet us at the airport she found a well recommended taxi driver who spent the next eight hours with us eventually leaving us at our first hotel in Ollantaytambo. After visiting Machu Picchu we stayed at Torre Dorada for four nights and felt sad leaving because of the comfort, kindness and warmth of the family. There were people staying for a month, going to the lanuage school. If you want a pool, boutique shops, or perhaps a historical location this is not the place for you. It is modern hotel with many beautiful details. If you want taste, kindness, warmth, reasonable prices and very caring service I can't imagine you being disappointed.

A week in Cusco

I spent a week in October 05 at the Torre Dorada in Cusco, whilst I visited Machu Picchu and the surrounding area. As a courtesy I was met at the airport and driven the short distance to the hotel, which in itself is deceptive, behind the wall, is a very clean, friendly and efficiently run family hotel. Lots of choice at breakfast, english speaking and nothing seems too much trouble. Rosemary is happy to make reservations for trips, recommend restaurants and generally be of any assistance she can. As an additional service I was picked up every evening I went out, irrespective of time, and driven back to the hotel, at no expense! Although this hotel is not right by the central square, it does cost 2 or 3 soles in taxi fare (which is less then £2.00) or is a 15 minutes slow walk to the centre of town, I would highly recommend it to anyone wishing to spend a very comfortable time in Cusco
