This is one of the most beautiful hotels I have ever stayed at. It is located in an old convent and the building has been beautifully repurposed into a modern hotel while still preserving the old world charm. Panchita , the resident alpaca , provides hours of joy to the young ( and old ). The breakfast is great and the bar makes yummy drinks .

This was an incredible hotel as it’s a former convent, and archaeological site. From our room we could see the ancient Incan wall just outside the window as we stayed on one of the subfloors. The hotel itself is stunning. The staff were all 5 star and were accommodating and friendly. The breakfast was wonderful with foods that could be eaten as breakfast or as brunch. The location was top notch as you could navigate all over Cusco to wherever you wanted to go. The rooms had potable water (this is uncommon) and a special plug of 120 V electricity so I could use my blow dryer like normal instead of using a converter which blew more slowly (this was a rare treat)! One thing to mention is that there was no gym which disappointed our young male travelers, but there was an indoor pool, dry sauna, and steam sauna which did not disappoint them.

JW Cusco is one of the finest hotels in the world and a complete 5 star luxurious experience. Their loving hospitality was evident at every turn throughout our stay and my only regret was that our 3 nights went by too quickly. My young daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and I’m already looking forward to returning with my husband.

Hot damn this is an absolutely beautiful hotel! We jumped around a few quite nice hotels in Peru, but this one was incredible - lots of history (do the daily tour around the property), and the way they have leveraged it to make what the hotel is today is incredible. Rooms and service were fantastic, enjoyed the food and spa - they even have Alpacas in the courtyard during the day. Had a blast here, highly recommend

One of the best hotels I've ever experienced. A hidden treasure blended with beauty and luxury with a modern lifestyle touch, tucked away in a city rich in culture.

Of the many fine attributes of the JW Marriott Cusco, the blending of historical architecture with modern comforts and high design is most unusual and perfectly executed. From the soft lighting to the rich dark woods and stone in the public areas, the understated atmosphere distinguishes itself as belonging uniquely to the Cusco property. And that holds true all the way to the lower levels where the lovely spa is intimately nestled. Not only was the staff properly warm, friendly and bi-lingual, but equally important highly skilled at their duties (which is surprisingly not always the case in fine hotels).
