Learn Spanish in Cusco

Accommodation in Cusco

Students can choose to stay in either local private households with local hosts or in shared apartments, living with Peruvians or other language students. Cusco, whilst the second city of Peru, is a small city and so daily commutes whilst likely, are not long. Students should expect travel times of 15 to 30 minutes each way.

Private households:

Single room accommodation with local Peruvian hosts with half-board (breakfast and evening meal).  

Bed linen and towels are included (and changed once a week). 
The hosts are usually middle to upper-middle class people on a Latin American scale and each host is inspected by the college accommodation officer.  We have quoted host accommodation in the CESA Course Finder. 

Shared apartments:

Students can rent a room in an apartment, sharing with other language students or in some cases with local Peruvian students.  You are welcome to specify your preference for sharing, but it will depend on room availablity at the time your course takes places, so no guarantees on this matter can be offered.

Students self cater and a towel and bed linen is provided.
House keeping will be done 3 times a week.
The apartments generally have WIFI and cable TV.
Students can rent either a single or a shared room.  If you choose a shared room, but no room mate can be allocated by the college, you will still be charged the shared room rate, on the understanding that once a room mate is found, they will move in with you.
