About

Okidoki Cusco Hostal

Okidoki Cusco Hostal is a modest 2-star property set on a hillside street in Cusco, about an 11-minute walk from the Casa Concha Museum. With 22 rooms, the hostel keeps things small and sociable, offering a shared kitchen, a lounge, a terrace, and a garden area where guests can relax between sightseeing.

The hostel provides practical support for getting the most out of Cusco: guided tours can be arranged at reception, luggage storage is available, and the 24-hour front desk means late arrivals are not a problem. A paid airport shuttle can be booked for convenience, though the property's walkable location near San Pedro Market and the historic centre may already cover most needs.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Location requires uphill walking — The hostel sits on a hill, which may be tiring if you have heavy luggage or are adjusting to Cusco's altitude.
  • Double room layout may not suit all — The Double Room comes with one double bed plus an extra single or double – fine for families or friends, but not a traditional couples-only setup.
  • No pets allowed — If you are travelling with an animal, this isn't the place – the policy is explicitly no pets.
  • Check-out is early — Check-out is at 10:00, which might feel early if you plan a lazy morning or a late start.
