About Munay Wasi Inn
Munay Wasi Inn stands on Avenida Tullumayu, at the edge of Cusco's historic center, a few blocks from the Plaza de Armas. The Qorikancha temple is a short walk away, so a first morning in the city can begin on foot. Inside, the lobby is built in colonial style with warm wood details, and a covered courtyard with a fountain gives guests somewhere to sit between outings.
There are four room types: a Standard Queen Room, a Double Room with two full beds, a Triple Room with three twin beds, and a Junior Suite that pairs a queen bed with a sofa. The hotel gives sizes of 167 to 175 square feet, so expect compact rooms. Each has a private bathroom and free Wi-Fi, and heaters are listed for the standard rooms.
Breakfast comes with every stay and is served at Sumaq Mikhuna Wasi, the inn's restaurant, which stays open for lunch and dinner with Peruvian dishes and some international ones. The front desk is staffed around the clock, and a paid airport shuttle is available. A conference room seats up to 40 in theater layout, which suits a small group meeting.
