I had an amazing stay at the Katari. The rooms were beautiful and well-appointed, with a comfy bed and nice shower. The terrace is wonderful with fantastic views of the main square, cathedral, and volcanoes. The staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and accommodating. While I couldn’t check in early, they allowed me to move my breakfast from the last day to my arrival day. In addition, they surprised me with a treat on my birthday. I also received a wonderful massage which helped after a long bus ride, and used their laundry service which came back promptly the same day. I would highly recommend this hotel.

It was a great location. The restaurant was very good. Our first room was a little warm and they brought us a fan. The second room had a portable air conditioner in it, which made it very comfortable. It is in the historic area and it is logical that They have limitations on what they can do. Overall, a great experience.

The roof terrace for breakfast is a great way to start the day. The staff is super friendly and helpful and you can’t beat the location.
