Beautiful architecture and history in this former monastery but just lacking a bit of attention to detail and rooms could use an upgrade More

This is my second visit to Cusco and I choose to stay one month at the Hotel Monestario to study spanish. The staff are incredible people and I actually feel part of the Hotel Monasterio Family. The location is fabulous, the service is beyond your expectations, the food is simply devine, the artwork is original, my room was amazing and... More

It´s the best place to stay in Peru! Very close to the main square, and all main atractions. Oxigenated rooms really help aclimatize to the altitude, coca tea is always available on the main entrance. Enjoy live guitar during breakfast in the main courtyard. You can take a tour of paitings around the Hotel that ends in a live cooking... More

The hotel has beautiful courtyards and is located 2 min away from Plaza de Armas. The room was nice, comfortable except for the air conditioning that was noisy and huge. Breakfast was very nice with local specialities and staff was friendly. More

We had a wonderful experience with this hotel. LOVED the extra oxygen we had pumped into our room (I totally needed it). The duplex room we had was perfect. The staff couldn't have been more helpful, and the peacefulness of being in a converted monastery added to the trip. More

Unbelievable! We just got back from Peru after a brilliant trip. The last few days of the holiday were spent in this fantastic hotel. While the service, rooms food and surroundings were excellent, just as to be expected, the thing that blew us away was the great attitude of the staff. Nothing was too much trouble. We discovered that flights... More

Stayed here for 3 nights. The first arrived totally exhausted from Machu Pichu. Room service produced a truly great hamburger which defied any need for condiments. Second night ate at lovely hotel restaurant with opera recital. Singers truly talented esp the soprano. Clientele less impressive - 2 tables of Americans who must have been famous. Only the truly famous would... More

I stayed at Monasterio last March. It was, by far,the most interesting place I've ever stayed at. My room and bathroom were huge and it was the only room of the hotel where there were some original tiles from the time the place was a real monastery. The service (just like anywhere in the Sacred Valley) was fantastic. There was... More

HOTEL REVIEW # 198 Montasterio MY TRAVEL STYLE: If possible, I try to stay away from business hotels and strongly prefer resorts that resemble the Four Seasons, Aman, and Oberoi but try to find similar properties at lower cost. I seek out the “wow” experiences. LOCATION: Perfect! 1 block to the main area of Cusco tourism and surrounded by restaurants.... More
