A real gem

We loved our stay with Santa Cruz. It was like staying with good friends. Willie, Flo, Judy, David and others were very friendly, helpful, and professional. From organizing a tour, to answering quick texts about appropriate Taxi fares, arranging laundry, and accommodating our vegetarian diet, everything was perfect. Tasty breakfasts cooked just right, super clean rooms, and just wonderful staff!

Has a nice view of the Huascaran provided you get the rooms facing the courtyard. Location not an issue for travellers with their own car. Breakfast ok. Amenities, fittings need an urgent revamp. Even something as basic as the room door lock needs maintenance.

My buddy and I were in Huaraz to climb and used the hotel to base out of . We were in and out 3 times over about 12 days and the staff were always happy to see us and greeted us with smiles. The rooms are fine and the beds are ok. Bathrooms are fine and there was plenty of hot water to wash off the trail dust. It up the hill from the main part of town so a bit more quite and the views of the high Cordillera are great!
