Staff at check in was rude and there were no towels in the room when we arrived, they didn’t make up the room everyday, WiFi is terrible no connection most of the time, breakfast buffet was diverse but ran out of food quickly so every time we go there’s no food and took them forever to bring a small plate of something for the buffet which runs out quickly so it was almost like people fighting over food, electric plugs are loose in the rooms and u have to hold it to use anything that needs electricity, very loud and people were sitting outside our door smoking and talking loud until late, the night staff at the desk was annoyed every time we asked her about something, but day staff were very nice and helpful and location is a short walk from historic city center. Resident llama Kiki is very cute. Nice courtyard where they have music in evenings. Overall a run-down hotel, with a lot of inconveniences (although not cheap in general), seems not very well managed and the staff are left to deal with all the issues on their own so they’re frustrated and not very friendly at first

Kiki the resident alpaca is so cute I really enjoyed the room. I payed extra for the room to be “ready” but there was no shampoo and the shower was backed up that the water pooled which was not great. It did not meet my expectations unfortunately It did have a blow dryer which was great Otherwise their activities of the day are free of charge for the guests- highly recommend

This hotel far exceeded our expectations for our stay. We loved how there were events going on to be immersed into Peruvian culture. We loved the attention to detail, Kiki the alpaca, and all the goodies they gave us. I would highly recommend Union at your next stay. Wish we were there longer!

The clearest thing I can say about the staff at this hotel is that they have it down. I arrived early, they handled the paperwork, grabbed my bags and sent me on my way with a promise to notify me if my room was available early. I returned to find my baggage in my room and a well thought out welcome gift waiting for me. Not just your usual candy but useful items we often forget, nail clippers, a comb, eye shades, toothbrush. The room is spacious and well laid out, the separate sitting area provides a nice change from fighting with my husband over who gets the single chair! There were even a couple of books available to make things homey I went into the courtyard to find an adorable little alpaca named Kiki who was roaming about looking for pets. Pretty awesome! I found out they had actually cooking and bartending class available. I learned to Make cerveche from the talented and forgiving chef, Frank, who only winced a little at my knive work. Juan translated for all of us and kept things flowing as the host . Shakira gave us a lesson in bartending by having us make a piso sour. She added a perfect touch with real flowers to decorate the drinks. Did I mention that there was no charge for these activities? On my final day, while chatting with the staff during breakfast that this trip was to celebrate our 40th anniversary they offered us mimosas. Later they brought up a nicely decorated "happy aniversary plate to our room.

We enjoyed our stay very much! The value for the price was excellent. We loved the live music on the porch in the evenings and the pisco sour making class. Breakfast was very good as well, and it was easy to walk around Cusco to the Plaza de Armas and other museums, restaurants, etc. The staff was very helpful with recommendations and organizing a taxi when we left.
