Palacio del Inka, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Cusco

Historic hotel with fantastic service and a delicious breakfast (both buffet and prepared options are available). The extra special moments include the hotel tour, pisco class at the bar, Incan music, baby alpacas, hot tea in the lobby, and helpful staff.

Comfortable room. Great food and competent and helpful staff.

Staying at Palacio del Inka has been, far and away, the best hospitality experience I have ever had. While every single staff member is attentive and goes out of their way to accommodate you, my favorite part has been the restaurant - both the service and the food were top notch. Particularly, Eva remembered us since our first day, and has made sure we were taken care of with great expedience and care. The atmosphere of the restaurant, particularly with the harpist during the most delicious breakfast spread I’ve ever had, sets you up for an amazing stay. The hotel is perfectly situated close to the main square and a short walk from the San Blas neighborhood. It is beautifully decorated with a rich history, and is a clean, relaxing oasis away from the hustle and bustle of Cusco. I will only stay at Palacio del Inka if and when I return to Cusco.

Such a special stay in this historical property in Cusco, fabulous suite and staff, service and food truly amazing. A special thank you to Juan who looked after us at lunch and breakfast, exceptional service Juan, we will be back again one day!

We loved our stay at Palacio del Inka. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcome. Check in with Paola was easy and warm, she was so friendly, thank you, Paola! Lydia helped us arrange the spa without any stress, and Josvien stood out by helping with our bags and even remembering our last name, a small detail that shows the level of care. The hotel itself is something special. Being surrounded by real Inca history gives the whole place a completely different feeling. Seeing the original Inca stonework throughout the property, including the 8-angle stone, makes you realize how unique this location really is. It doesn’t feel like just another hotel, it feels like you’re staying inside history. We also did the wonderful hotel tour with Ruth, which was very informative. One of the most memorable moments was a performance by a man from Cusco dressed in traditional Inca attire, hearing the Peruvian instruments live was beautiful and a wonderful experience. After that, we did a pisco sour class with Rodrigo at the bar, which was a lot of fun and we end it up staying there for dinner and music. Our room was beautifully decorated, with paintings, and very comfortable, and the balcony had amazing views. We really enjoyed spending time there. The spa was another highlight, very relaxing, and the massage was incredible. Thank you to Claudia, the attendant at the Spa, for being so helpful and making sure we had exactly what we needed. Breakfast was also delicious, with a great variety of options. Overall, it’s a beautiful hotel with a genuinely wonderful staff. We left really happy with our stay and would absolutely come back.
