Hostel El Grial

It is located in an antique building from the 17th century in the San Blas district, the artisan district. From the hostel it is only 5 blocks to the main plaza, the Plaza de Armas of Cusco.

Before its opening, the building has been renovated for 3 years (1995-1998) to restore it to its original colonial style, using original materials like adobe (clay stones) and wood, giving it the warm and natural atmosphere.



It is a place where you can find yourself. This is also implied by its name, El Grial or Holy Grail, looked for by many people.

Staying in El Grial is more than having just a comfortable room. It is also forming part of a family whose members are Yedira, Fernando and their daughter Angela (born in March 2000), the other staff of the hostel and its guests.


All are offering their affection to make everybody feel at home. Apart from Spanish, Yedira and Fernando also speak English and French.
