Hotel Monasterio |

Located in the heart of Cusco, just one block from the Plaza de Armas, it was originally built as a monastery in 1592.

The rooms reflect their origins as a home for Jesuit seminarians. No two rooms are alike and they all vary in size and format. One great new aspect of the renovation was the oxygen-enrichment of some of the rooms as an aid in preventing altitude sickness. |
