la casita de chepina

Tucked into the Lucrepata residential quarter above Cusco's colonial centre, La Casita de Chepina offers a private-entrance apartment feel rather than a hotel stay — hardwood floors, a full kitchen, and a sitting area with sofa make longer acclimatisation stays genuinely comfortable at 3,400 metres.

The terrace and balcony face a garden view toward the surrounding hills rather than a busy street, a meaningful difference in a city where noise carries. Heating is included, which matters in Cusco's cold dry-season nights from May through August.

Lucrepata sits a ten-minute uphill walk from the Plaza de Armas, quieter than the San Blas tourist corridor yet close enough to reach on foot. On-site parking removes the daily taxi calculation for guests arriving via Alejandro Velasco Astete airport.
