Hotels in Cusco
The heart of the Inca Empire was the city of Cusco. In Inca times the city was full of gold covered temples and large plazas where important ceremonies were held. When the Spanish arrived in the 15th Century they changed Cusco into a Spanish Colonial city and is what we see today. The city is filled with Spanish churches that are wonderfully ornate and feature paintings from the Cusco art school started by the Spanish. The city has much to see and do and worth a few days at least of your holiday time. Cusco features the most beautiful hotels in all of South America, most housed in Spanish Colonial houses that have been refurbished but have all the modern necessities. One of the best is the Belmond Monasterio, close to the main square the hotel is has a delightful patio where you can have your breakfast. You must visit the small church that is wonderfully decorated with art and gold. The rooms are decorated in the colonial style and the property features some fine dining restaurants. Located on the opposite side of the square is the Aranwa Hotel, another historic hotel with a fine art collection, the hotel is five-star luxury at its best and is worth a visit even if you are not staying. There are some great four star properties in Cusco, for example the Costa del Sol, the Casa Andina Private Collection and for something different The Fallen Angel Guesthouse. The guesthouse only has five rooms each decorated in an individual style. Cusco is the perfect place to base yourself for your Cusco, Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu experience.
