In the heart of the ancient city of Cuzco lays Hotel Monasterio. This monastery, built in the late 1500′s, has been converted into a luxurious hotel complete with restaurants and a beautiful courtyard. As you step into Monasterio, you’ll be transported to another era. The modestly elegant décor breathes peace and tranquility, while the religious artwork adds a solemn note to the atmosphere.
The arhitectural details add individual character to each room. The detailed accents on the furniture complete the antique look of the entire hotel. All rooms have a heating system, televisions and WiFi. Two-level suites are particularly interesting. Your entrance goes into a cozy living room and upstairs is the bedroom and breakfast nook with an incredible panoramic view of this ancient city. Other suites are quietly luxurious furnished and decorated in deep, rich colors, even a marble bathroom. The royal suites even have a private outdoor terrace. Rooms can be enriched with oxygen, upon request, to prevent altitude sickness.
Breakfast is included with your reservation. You may take it in the privacy of your own room or in the large dining hall in Hotel Monasterio. The long dining table is reminiscent of the lifestyle of those who previously roamed these halls in meditation and seclution. Lunch and Dinner may be taken at the Iliary. Enjoy the Japanese-Peruvian fusion cuisine at this tasteful reastaurant.
During the day you may take a tour of the city and its historical landmarks. Take the luxurious Hiram Bingham Orient Express to Machu Picchu and back to Cuzco.

There is also live music on board and an experienced tour guide to take you up to Machu Picchu. The experience of traveling on the Orient Express is truly magical.
Take a trip back in time and roam the halls of a former religious sanctuary and explore a culture centuries old. Find peace of mind and focus at Hotel Monasterio.
