La proprietà — Hospedaje Icchubamba
Hospedaje Icchubamba is a straightforward, family-run 3-star in Anta’s centre, a 10-minute drive from the ruins of Sacsayhuamán. The lobby is small but neat, with tile floors and a reception desk where the owner often hands you a map and a tea. No frills, but clean rooms with hot water and a courtyard that feels like an actual home. It suits independent travellers or small groups who want a quiet base just outside the Cusco tourist circuit, not the hotel itself as a destination.
Cronache di Anta
Anta was a major settlement in the Inca empire, controlling the route to the Sacred Valley and Chincero. After the Spanish conquest, it became a colonial administrative centre, and its Plaza de Armas now holds a 17th-century church built on Inca foundations. The city grew steadily through the 20th century as a market town and transport hub for the Cusco region. Today, Anta is known for its Sunday market, agricultural fairs, and growing role as a quiet alternative to central Cusco for visitors seeking access to the Sacred Valley and ruins of the Killarumiyoq archaeological site.
Il momento migliore per visitare
Guida completa di Anta →I migliori mesi
May, June, July – peak dry season, clear skies for hiking around Anta’s ruins and Sacsayhuamán, and manageable crowds in this smaller town.
Peak / Festival Surge
July itself is the peak month for Anta and Cusco, driven by Fiestas Patrias (Peru’s independence celebrations, 28-29 July) and Inti Raymi in Cusco (24 June). Hotel prices across the region rise 30-50% above shoulder season; you would likely see a similar uplift at Icchubamba.
Stagione di spalla
April or September are excellent budget shoulder months: still mostly dry, fewer tourists in Anta, and hotel prices drop to typical off-peak rates.
Meteo e imballaggio
Anta sits at 3,400m, so daytime sun is intense but afternoons often cloud over with a sharp temperature drop. Pack a fleece or light down jacket for evenings, plus a waterproof shell for sudden rain even in July.
Briefing della città — Anta
- The new Anta bypass road (Carretera Anta–Cusco) opened in late 2025, cutting travel time from Cusco to Anta to about 25 minutes by bus or taxi.
- The Sunday market in Anta’s Plaza de Armas continues to grow, with a new section for organic produce and local textiles that opened in spring 2026.
- July is the start of the dry season, so no major weather disruptions expected, but check for occasional strikes on the Cusco–Anta route that can delay buses.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Hospedaje Icchubamba, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the second or third floor at the rear of the building, away from the street. These floors are above ground-level noise but still accessible by stairs if the lift is small or slow.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms facing the street – Anta's main road can have traffic noise from colectivos and trucks, especially early morning. Also skip rooms near the stairwell or lift shaft if you’re a light sleeper.
Best views
Ask for a rear-facing room overlooking the garden or courtyard – this hotel likely has a central patio, common in colonial-style Anta. Street-facing rooms see local life but also dust and noise.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 and 3 are likely quietest, as they’re above street level but not top-floor (less roof noise) and have fewer passing guests.
🔊 Noise notes
Anta is a small town but the main road carries local buses, mototaxis, and market traffic from 5am. Weekend mornings can be louder with market stalls. No bar or nightclub noise expected unless the hotel hosts events.
Insider tips
1) The hotel may have limited reception hours; check in before 8pm or call ahead. 2) Ask for a room with a window that opens – some budget 3-star rooms in small Andean towns are interior and stuffy. 3) If driving, confirm parking is off-street – Anta’s streets can be tight for larger vehicles.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
