Palacio del Inka
Cusco, Peru
The 5-star Palacio del Inka, a Luxury Collection Hotel by Marriott, is ideally located within the historical center of the city, only three blocks from the main square and across from Santo Domingo Church and Coricancha Inca site.
Occupying the fabulous Casa de los Cuatro Bustos, where Francisco Pizarro, first spanish governor of Peru, used to live, it is built on the foundations of the Aclla Huasi, where the chosen virgins of the Inca lived. The lobby, bar and restaurant all boast original Inca walls.
Sunny courtyards, arched entries, and rooms decorated in colonial style add elegance to the hotel’s ambiance. Rooms are modern featuring 24-hour room service, mini-bar, cable TV, in-room safe, individual air conditioning/heater units, and hair dryers. After a busy day, visit the decadent Andes Spirit Spa. The hotel also offers an excellent breakfast and dinner buffet featuring international and Peruvian cuisine as well as a la carte options and the café features sandwiches and light meals.
