Puno Travel Forum

Hi - I shall be arriving in Puno on November 11th during the day. I wondered if anyone had any recommendations for a hotel there (not quite shoestring, but not expensive either).

Here is a list:

We stayed at the Libertador, but booked from www.peru-hotels.com for $113 including breakfast and tax; we booked two Libertador hotels (Puno and Arequipa) thus get 8% off from their listed price).

Senesta is not far from Libertador, but cheaper.

Best luck and have a good time. Make sure you have the medicine if you may suffer high altitude sickness. It is about 4KM elevation.

Thanks Freecloud. As I explained in another msg, did not find this until my return. But my budget for Peru was a lot lower than yours, so probably just as well! (The two big budget spends for me on this trip were diving on a liveaboard in the Galapagos, and a yacht we chartered for Christmas in Los Roques, Venezuela - so everything else needed to be very economical!)
