Belmond Hotel Monasterio

Built as a monastery in 1592 and converted in 1995 into a beautiful hotel, the Monasterio is a haven of peace and elegance in the centre of Cuzco. The hotel is centred around a cloistered courtyard which features outdoor seating, a fountain, colourful flowers and a 300 year old cedar tree, offering a tranquil setting in which to relax.

The 124 rooms and split-level suites are located around flowery courtyards, with some able to be enriched with oxygen to alleviate altitude sickness. All rooms are air-conditioned with Wi-Fi access, an LCD TV and iPod dock.

The Chapel of San Antonio Abad is an ornate masterpiece with paintings hanging from its walls depicting the life of its saint.
