Using the airport as a starting point, follow Aviación Avenue as an entrance into the city. A few kilometers further is the Grau Bridge, where on the right side of the Chili River the comfortable La Posada del Puente opens its doors to the city's downtown.
After crossing the bridge, detour toward La Marina Avenue, which provides fast access to the peaceful setting of Selva Alegre Zone, where the Libertador Hotel dominates the landscape, backed by the international chain Golden Tulip. Toward the city’s downtown, one will find the enchanting hotel called La Casa de mi Abuela, 'My Grandmother’s House', located along Jerusalén Street. Arequipa’s downtown offers numerous hotels of diverse features and prices.
At the end of Puente Grau Street, travelers will find economically priced hostels for an average price of US$4 per person. The hostels are manor homes from colonial times 300 years ago, and their owners take personal care to guarantee the amenities and security for tourism. Two of the Historic District's most noteworthy hostels are La Posada de Sancho and Hostal Conquistador.
Arequipa's many hostels aim to provide guests with the most comfort, while providing complete tourist information and travel reservations. The hotels also take pride in their appearance, and many boast artworks by up-and-coming regional artists.
The Plaza de Armas provides a unique contrast to the more humble Historic District. El Misti looms above the plaza's beautiful cathedral, and provides a breathtaking backdrop to the bustle of the city center. The Posada del Inca Arequipa, part of the Cuatro Estrellas, is a hotel, casino, movie theater and restaurant for discriminating tastes located right on the stunning Plaza de Armas.
Crossing to the other side of the downtown, Sucre Street gives way into the residential area of Vallecito. The fresh and pure air provides a splendid climate, ideal to relax in its hotels: El Balcón and Hostal La Plazuela, both of adorable classic style.
