About

Hello dear travelers!

Our Yaqta Hostel is located only 100 meters from the main square and thereby offers you the perfect base to head out and explore the city or go on tours visiting Trujillo's historic sites.

Our cosy hostel is seperated into two buildings which you will find directly across each other. There we provide you with spacious, clean and comfortable rooms with private lockers for each of our guests so you don't need to worry about your valuables while enjoying yourselves.
Apart from that we offer to safely store your backpacks before check-in and after ckeck-out.

Both buildings have large colourful rooftop terraces with several comfortable lounge areas that ensure you lots of oppurtunities to meet fellow travelers from all over the world.
You will be provided with a personal key-card that allows you to enter both buildings as you please. All our guests, if acommodated in one or the other building, are welcome to use the well equipped kitchen facilities and enjoy our delicious drinks at the bar which are both located in the main bulding.

Please note that your acommodation in either one of the buildings depends on availabilities upon your arrival.

In any case our Team Yaqta is always doing its best to keep the good vibes and make you, our current Yaqta family, feel at home.
Occasionally we offer small events like barbecues and rooftop happy hour parties but nonetheless sleep rest hours are being respected to make sure you all get a good night's sleep.

We are looking forward to host you beautiful spirits from all over the world!
Cheers, Team Yaqta

Really nice place in the middle of Trujillo. Thought the staff were super friendly. Watched a World Cup game with the owner and had a good laugh. Only tiny little negative thing was that there’s not a huge amount of natural light in the second building that’s used by the hostel but despite that tiny thing, 10/10

Good Hostel, staff were friendly and our room was nice. Can be some street noise at night but it didn’t bother us. Rooftop area is great spot to chill. Also right next to town centre
