When is the best time to go to La Candelaria?

The best time to visit La Candelaria is during the dry season, which runs from April to November. During these months, you can expect clear skies, plenty of sunshine, and comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 15°C to 25°C. This period is ideal for exploring the town and surrounding natural beauty without the interruption of heavy rainfall. It's also the peak season for outdoor activities, making it great for those looking to hike and sightsee. The wet season, from December to March, brings more frequent rainfall and cooler temperatures. While the landscapes become lush and green, some roads and trails might be less accessible, and outdoor plans could be affected by the weather.

"We absolutely adored our stay here. The staff were so wonderful, there’s someone at the desk all the time and they helped us book an early morning taxi to the airport, and stored our bags when we went to the Colca Canyon. The bed was so comfy, the bathrooms clean, we loved the little patio for coca tea in the morning, and the breakfast was served upstairs on a pretty terrace. We found the walk into the main plaza easy and quick, and 10 minutes. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!"

"My wife and I stayed at the hotel for two nights and it was great. The woman at the front desk was very helpful! The breakfast in the morning was nice including fresh juice. The hotel is about a 15-20 minute walk to the Plaza de Armas or a short taxi ride for 5 soles. The only draw back was there was no heating or air conditioning in the room. The only ventilation we had was if we openned our doors to the balcony. The balcony was shared with 2 other rooms. While we were there no one else stayed...

Hotel San Agustin Posada del Monasterio

8/10 Good

"Room 506 had a view beyond compare as well as the windows and patio I’ve never bragged a bout a view but this has it The first two nights I got blissful sleep,, Thursday the music from near by was horrible,, didnt stop until 130 am and I had to be up at 230 for the canyon tour. Friday night the music wasn’t quite as loud as Thursday I tried calling the front desk and let the phone ring 15 minutes, no one answered,, they go around the corner and sleep on the couch Staff didn’t seem to care I couldn’t sleep"
