The Point Hostel Arequipa, located in a quiet suburb of Arequipa, "The White City," was perhaps our favorite hostel during our travel through Peru. With its large courtyard filled with hammocks and chairs and tables to sit at, a nice comfortable TV room, a good-size common room with a bar and comfy cushions around knee-high tables, and clean bathrooms, The Point Hostel Arequipa is the place to stay for a vacation from your vacation.
The hostel staff is friendly and knowledgeable and will help with travel arrangements and trip booking, as well as provide a wealth of local information.
Add to the mix the free high-speed Internet and Ping-Pong table, along with nightly activities, including barbecues, pub crawls, giant Jenga games, chill rooftop seating, and go-karting just a few minutes walk away, you may not want to leave.Go for a night or stay for a few—we did!
