Would stay again

Excellent value and location. Rooms were clean and a bit loud but no complaints at all. Breakfast was delicious and we loved the small feel. They let us leave our luggage when we went to Machu Picchu and even put in our room when we got back!

Very clean and safe. Good value. Easy walk to all the main areas, but away from the noise. The staff were very friendly and helpful, including getting up VERY early to provide me a bag breakfast for my Inca Trail and Machu Michu Picchu Trek.

Great place to stay

This is the second time staying at this hostel and i can again say i can really recommend it. What makes it so special is both the location and 2 of the staff Jackie and Nelly, they really go out of their way to make you feel welcome, always a kind greeting on how your day has been and always «how Are you today» not all Hotels Are lucky enough to have staff that care about their guests as these 2 do, so Thankyou for making my stay again enjoyable. Both San Blas area and Cusco are so beautiful that the 3 weeks i spent here went so fast:-( Muchos Gracias El Grial and especially to Jackie and Nelly, i will miss your smiling faces:-)

Great hostel in San Blas

This is a great little hostel with mostly older adults (meaning it is NOT a party place. It is in the San Blas barrio mostly away from the noise and ubiquitous hawkers that plague the Plaza de las Armas. Good variety of restaurants near by with a nice little bar up from the Plaza San Blas called Km.O. Nighly live music of uneven quality. Older crowd. Smitty at the front door is funny and can direct you the sister restaurant that has excellent food.I recommend asking for an upstairs room because when I was in 101, I could hear every creaky step of those above. Staff generally is great and the breakfast is just ok. Eggs come with breakfast regardless of whether the staff offers them or not. I would stay here again for the location, charm of the street and the hostal, and the clean rooms. Not the cheapest hostal though.

6/10 Good

O quarto estava bem limpinho e arrumado, atendentes muito simpáticas e ajudaram muito. Meu maior problema foi que o quarto era muito gelado. Eu fiz a reserva de um quarto com aquecedor, mas na verdade o quarto não tinha aquecedor. Quando questionei sobre isso na recepção falaram que a dona só disponibiliza aquecedor durante o inverno e que eu teria que pagar 15 soles pelo aquecedor (porém ele é portátil e não pode ficar ligado por muito tempo se não pode queimar). Péssima experiência. De resto a localização é boa e a estrutura do hostel também.

Kan anbefales, veldig sentralt og hyggelig

Veldig sentralt og hyggelig hostel. De som jobber der er veldig oppmerksom og sørge for at opphold blir vellykket. Plassering av El Grial er bare helt fantastisk. Jeg var uheldig å blei syk de første dagene og det endte med sykehus opphold, til og med da fikk jeg melding fra hotellet om hvordan det gikk med meg, de bryr seg om gjestene sine. De tilpasse frokost så mann kan ta med seg hvis mann skal på noen utflukter tidligere på dagen og det er alltid Altitude Sickness te tilgjengelig hvis mann ønsker det. San Blas er en av de fineste område i Cusco med både resturanter, barer, markets, daglig varer, laundry og ikke minst nydelig utsikt over cusco fra San Blas Plaza, Kan varmt anbefales å bor på Hostel El Grial :-)

Un refuge très appréciable

Charmant petit hôtel du quartier San Blas. Eau chaude (et tapis de bain ! Suffisamment rare au Pérou pour être signalé), lit confortable, petit déjeuner copieux et service impeccable. Nous recommandons chaleureusement !
