Shoffi's House Backpackers

We are a nice, quite and confortable Hostel in the jungle of Tararpoto, we have created a space full of art from some artist of our region, so when you enter to our place you will be in contact with some pictures that reflet the beauty of our flora and fauna. We love our culture so we created this place in order our guests could enjoy of a beautiful and peaceful place, ideal to relax and rest.

At Shoffi's House Backpackers, we also have a lot of plants surrounding the hostel and a terrace, so if you love plants you will feel that you are in the jungle. We are protectors of the environment, we are green!

Our Hostel also gives you the opportunity of visit one of the biggest typical and authentic market of the city, we are located just one block from it. In this market, called Market of the Barrio Huayco, you can find everything you need to eat or cook by yourself, there is a complete area of fresh fruits and vegetables, another area of products that come directly from the lands of the farmers of different parts of our region at low prices.

Our rooms are clean, cozy and well equipped, the terrace and the kitchen are very nice too, located at the top of the building so when you cook you will have a beautiful view of the entire neighborhood.

Come and enjoy Shoffi's House Backpackers and the family warmth!

This is easily the best hostel in Tarapoto. Shoffi was amazing at giving us recommendations and making sure we were always comfortable. The hostel itself is a great location as you’re next to a huge market where you could buy fresh ingredients to cook with. You can also easily get around the city with tuk tuks straight from the front door. The hostel was always so clean and the atmosphere is really calm and relaxing. Would highly recommend!

Very nice hostel with a super friendly and helpful host. After transferring from another hostel we extended our stay multiple times. There was no freely accessible fridge but other than that the kitchen was very well equipped. The rooms were clean and we even had our own bathroom. Also, it’s really nice to hang out in the Hammocks. Shoffi helped us a lot with her recommendations in excellent English. I would choose the hostel again any time!
