About Us

A Love Story & Legacy

Loki Hostel Cusco is more than a hostel — it's a love story, a legacy, and a living piece of Cusco's social history. Run by Jess and Dror (also known as Chester), the hostel is set inside a striking 16th-century colonial mansion, blending historic character with a bold, social, luxury-meets-party atmosphere.

Jess and Dror met here over 12 years ago, fell in love and today run the hostel together. Dror is one of the original Loki owners, and together they continue to shape what Loki represents: connection, culture, and unforgettable nights.

Pioneer of Social Travel

Loki Cusco is a pioneer in Cusco's hospitality scene, redefining social travel through experiences that combine culture, celebration, and accessible luxury. Known for its one-of-a-kind tab system, Loki changed how travelers connect, party, and feel at home.

Before COVID, Loki was part of a large international franchise; today, Cusco stands proudly independent — fully owned and operated by Jess and Dror. This independence allows Loki to stay true to its roots while evolving into a space where luxury, culture, and party energy coexist effortlessly.

Our Family

What truly sets Loki apart is its people. Many of our staff have been with us for over 18 years, creating a sense of continuity, trust, and family that guests feel instantly.

We don't just work together — we celebrate together, party together, and welcome guests into that shared energy. Loki has always been a place where it's easy to meet people, make friends, and have an incredible time.

At Loki Hostel Cusco, luxury is about experience, the culture is real, and every night becomes part of the story.
