About the Hotel
Voted the Best Hotel in South America by the readers of Condé Nast Traveler, Belmond Hotel Monasterio deserves every accolade that comes its way. Built in the 16th century as a monastery on Inca foundations, this cloistered compound is located amid the historic splendor of Cusco, Peru. Most notably, the hotel serves as an ideal base for exploring the mystical ruins of Machu Picchu. Much of the original architecture of Belmond Hotel Monasterio remains intact, paying homage to its original seminarian occupants. In keeping with its intended purpose, the rooms and suites feature a mix of traditional and contemporary furnishings, with a gallery of religious art gracing the walls. Because of the high elevation, 11,000 feet above sea level, many of the rooms are equipped with an oxygen supplementation system for your added comfort.

Reviews for Belmond Hotel Monasterio
Four nights in Cusco
We stayed here for four wonderful nights. It is an amazing and unique hotel with the best service possible. Its worth the cost to stay in such an amazing place. The rooms are small, but classically done. We stayed in one of the suites and it was perfect. The restaurant was wonderful as well. If ever back in Cusco we would absolutely stay there again.

Charming and Beautiful
Beautiful historical hotel located in a prime area of Cusco where you have the quiet serene street but walkable to all the sights. I love the charm and level of service. The staff are impeccable. I don't normally book expensive hotels but this is one that is worth it as it is not just your usual chain hotel. Loved our stay.

Cusco Hotel
Very unique hotel since its an old Monastery. We stayed in the Bishop's room. Outstanding hotel - room was a combination of historical, but ultra modern in regards to bathroom and technology. A perfect place when visiting Cusco. only 2 blocks from the main plaza.

Beautiful Hotel with amazing sense of place
We loved Monasterio in Cusco. It was so authentic and beautifully done and while it is an old monastery, it still felt very modern. The art work and gardens are spectacular.

Hotel Monasterio in Cusco is truly world-class. Cusco is about 11,000 feet in altitude, but they offer oxygen supplement in rooms. Everything is superb. The manager invited us to a special cocktail party on one night, very gracious.

My daughter and I enjoyed our trip to Peru immensely. We stayed at the Hotel Monasterio in Cusco and found it to be superb. We had a magnificent suite, the staff was perfect and the chef sent us a wonderful surprise birthday cake to our room.

We visited Peru and the entire trip was spectacular. Orient-Express hotels provided exceptional service and world-class accommodations. We stayed at the Miraflores Park Hotel, Hotel Monasterio, and Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge. All three hotels had beautiful rooms, outstanding restaurants, and a helpful friendly English-speaking staff. From now on, Orient-Express will be at the top of my list for worldwide travel.

We traveled to Peru and enjoyed stays at Miraflores Hotel in Lima, Hotel Monasterio in Cusco, and Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge. I am highly satisfied and recommend these hotels without reservation.
