Best Hotels in Cusco

Next to the vibrant Cusco Central Square is the Belmond Hotel, a former monastery and a national monument. This ex monastery offers luxury colonial-style accommodation and it's set around a courtyard in the Cusco´s historical centre just 2 blocks from Plaza Armas Square. Originally built in 1592, Belmond Hotel Monasterio sits on the site of Inca Amaru Qhala’s palace. Six years later, the Spanish took it over and founded the Seminary of San Antonio Abad. However, an earthquake seriously damaged the building in 1650 and upon restoration the beautiful Chapel was added. In 1965, the building was remodelled as a hotel and right now it is a national historic landmark, protected by Peru’s National Institute of Culture.

Under the Council of Trent, the Bishop of Cusco, Antonio Raya y Navarrete, founded the college seminary at the old Inca palace. However, an earthquake struck the region destroying the place around mid-1600s. A new Baroque seminary was built on top of the rubble. As a historical landmark, Hotel Monasterio is protected by Peru’s National Institute of Culture.

Set in a peaceful plaza behind Cusco's main square, the former palace has been emerged from years of restoration to turn into one of the city's most exceptional resorts.

Initially built in 1500s during the Inca Empire. However, the earthquake of 1650 partially destroyed the walls and had to be rebuilt. It was used as a school until it was claimed by a private owner in 1687 and then a convent in the 18th century for nuns. In 1876, the convent used the rooms as a girls' boarding school. In 1977, the last nun moved out and the ancient building was leased to the Peruvian government.

Inspired by Andean and Inca culture, Hypnôze Spa has developed many treatments to improve mental, physical and emotional wellbeing.

The ancient property was first used by humble muleteers, merchants and travellers as a place of refuge after exhaustion. A place where they feed their animals and rest their products before they continue to other towns.
