Belmond Hotel Monasterio

Cusco, Peru

Rooms:  With an enviable position in the centre of Cusco, the Belmond Hotel Monasterio offers 126 rooms and suites, serving as the perfect retreat after a day exploring the city. Each room is wonderfully unique, reflecting the monastery’s charm and elegance. Rich wood furnishings, antique artwork and architectural quirks add to the historic atmosphere. Magnificent examples of religious art adorn the walls. Luxurious Junior Suites offer stunning courtyard or city views, elegant marble bathrooms, some with luxurious baths while others feature just a shower. Upon request, Junior Suites can be enriched with oxygen to combat the effects of Cusco’s high altitude.

In these suites you’ll find almost endless space, with a bedroom, separate living room, large marble bathroom and expansive private terrace.

In the late afternoons, the Lobby Bar is the perfect spot to sink in front of the roaring fire and enjoy the smooth sounds of the city’s finest Jazz musicians.

Location:  The historic city of Cusco lies nestled in the Andes, on top of the world, at more than 11,000 feet above sea level and the Belmond Hotel Monasterio stands in the historical center of this city, only two blocks away from the Plaza de Armas, or central square, and a few short blocks from the city’s most interesting museums. The nearest airport, Velazco Astete (CUZ), is just 1 mile away.
