I had an amazing stay at the Katari. The rooms were beautiful and well-appointed, with a comfy bed and nice shower. The terrace is wonderful with fantastic views of the main square, cathedral, and volcanoes. The staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and accommodating. While I couldn’t check in early, they allowed me to move my breakfast from the last day to my arrival day. In addition, they surprised me with a treat on my birthday.
I also received a wonderful massage which helped after a long bus ride, and used their laundry service which came back promptly the same day. I would highly recommend this hotel.

It was a great location. The restaurant was very good. Our first room was a little warm and they brought us a fan. The second room had a portable air conditioner in it, which made it very comfortable. It is in the historic area and it is logical that They have limitations on what they can do. Overall, a great experience.

Beautiful
Property in the famous Armas courtyard. Great dining on the roof top, much to see always something going on. Next door to a grocery store and central to everywhere walkable. Staff are kind and helpful, breakfast ample & delicious. Massages affordable and amazing. My bedroom was elegant and spacious, the bathroom/ shower ample, soaps handmade and generous. Highly recommend. I'd come back if i ever have a reason.

Great stay.
The location is amazing. The included breakfast is delicious and the view from the rooftop restraunt where it's served is beautiful. We did have some trouble with water into our room with heavy rain, but it was more than made up for by the staff who were very helpful over the entire stay.
