Hatun Wasi Hostel has a homely atmosphere created by a family working together to give guests the best possible welcome to Huaraz. Liz heads up reception with her experience in tourism and spoken English, whilst mother Maria runs the mini-market downstairs. With its comfortable rooms, piping hot showers and friendly and accommodating staff, it makes an ideal base for exploring the nearby mountain ranges. Arrangements such as luggage storage clearly have lovers of the outdoors in mind. Fresh towels on your bed, cable TV and a wide breakfast menu cooked to order help prepare for, or recover from a trek. The dramatic views of the surrounding Cordillera Blanca are a sight to behold from the roof terrace; perfect for a morning coffee or evening drink as you watch the sun go down.
