Hi, I'm going to Peru and I will be in Cusco for about one week and would like to know what are the best hostels. I'm 19 years old solo. I looked on the internet and those 3 looked interesting:
- Pariwana Hostel Cusco
- Milhouse Hostel Cusco
- Ecopackers
I want to meet people who want to hike mountains, visit the city and party a bit (I don't go to Peru to party for 3 weeks but... I still want to have fun!)
If you have any experiences / recommendations I would be happy to hear from you!
Thanks!

Here are some of my favorite hostels in Cusco, although they are in no way "party hostels."

If you want to socialize but also want to be up early enough for trekking and exploring the Sacred Valley, then Ecopackers is a good option. It's really sociable, but isn't as excessive as some of the true party hostels. Inti Quilla is small but attracts a cool crowd of backpackers. Sunset House too, which is just round the corner from Inti Quilla. But yeah, as a 19-year-old traveling solo, Ecopackers is probably the best option.

If you are looking for a party hostel I would go with Milhouse, Loki, or WIld Rover.
If you want something thats a little less party than I'd go with Ecopackers or Pariwana. I stayed at Pariwana and it was good. Not as party party as WIldrover or Loki....
