Pro: staff was nice and helpful, breakfast on the roof terrace offers a nice view of El Misti volcano, walking distance to the city centre, free (but slow) internet access. Con: the place needs some renovation - dark entrance area, rooms are quite shabby with electrical showers only. Don't take a room that faces the street - lots of traffic... More

We stayed at the Colonial House Inn after reading the reviews on this website. I believe the Inn has changed hands lately, as it is no longer family run. The Inn rooms were shabby and not extremely clean. We stayed in two different rooms, one with a shower head with exposed wires. The bathroom wasn´t cleaned daily and the water... More

This place is symbolic of Peru. Old, faded, with a certain charm, but in dire need of remodeling. Our room had a French door that opened on a pretty patio, and that was enough to conquer me. Having breakfast on the terrace, with a view of the city roofs and old Misty looming in the background was even better. And... More

The Colonial House Inn is a traditional sillar (white volcanic rock that Arequipa is known for) home-cum-hostel with several basic guest rooms, a bright, sunny courtyard and a peaceful rooftop terrace where you can enjoy your breakfast. My room had high ceilings (I'd guess 14 feet) and a skylight with a private bath. I enjoyed it because I felt like... More

A bit shabby but this added to the charm. Breakfast taken on roof with a view of volcano. Ran out of hot water one morning. The girls who work here are very friendly and extremely helpful. 5 minutes walk into town. More

La Casa de Sillar is the new name for the Colonial House II in Arequipa. My wife got very ill on the bus ride to Arequipa and spent five days in bed at this hotel. The proprietors could not have been more friendly or more helpful, serving me breakfast on the roof-terrace each morning and my wife breakfast in bed,... More
