“Cusco's 3 a.m. breakfast hero”
Sonesta Hotel Cusco is a sparkling four-star in a perfect walkable spot — spacious quiet rooms, street-view balconies, welcome drinks, a permanent tea-and-cookie corner, and the best breakfast in the house: a varied buffet served from 3 a.m., a godsend for Machu Picchu departures. Staff are warm and proactive — one mended a guest's broken suitcase. Small notes: slippers and toothbrushes come on request, and soundproofing is weak — a neighbor's bathroom routine was fully audible once; a booking couldn't be cancelled for another.
