Top Cusco Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Cusco

Hilton Garden Inn Cusco

10/10 Excellent
"The property was extremely nice and we especially enjoyed the Cocoa Tea and cookies served daily in the lobby. We also loved he beautiful courtyard and seating with easy entry into the bar and the restaurant. We had a lovely young lady named Analia who was so sweet, gracious and helpful! On our last day she saw me struggling to carry two cups of coffee to the courtyard and immediately ran to my rescue! She said, “Mr. Carl, let me help you” and took the cups and walked them gracefully to our table without spilling a drop! She then said anytime I needed to just say Analia, Help and she would be there! Such a ray of sunshine and the Hilton Garden in is so lucky to have such a great ambassador who’s very actions demonstrate the meaning of hospitality!"
