The Sonesta is a hotel which is about five mins in a car from the busy, crowdy and noisy center of the small (compared to Lima) Puno. The Sonesta has a beautiful view, with some free cuy and lamas grassing on the garden. I found the Sonesta to be a hotel I will use over and over again as a place where I know things will happen according to the plan. It is a modest hotel, on the upper end of modest, but it will definitely provide you with a good accommodation and rest, in particular if you are coming here after a long trek in Cuzco. Only minus would be the lack of elevator, which makes those stairs to the third floor to be loooong, but that is a minor detail. Highly recommended. Without any doubt. Go for it.
