We spent 4 nights here in May en route to Machu Picchu. The service is exceptional, the breakfasts superb, and the amenities in this restored old monastery first class . The location is very central, just a short stroll to the Grand Plaza, local restaurants and shopping . Highly recommended.

We stayed at the Monasterio in April 2013 during our visit to Cusco. The hotel was lovely, a peaceful and beautiful haven from the chaotic bustle of Cusco. The room itself was large and well appointed, the bathroom was lovely. The breakfast buffet was superb and the best we had on our four week trip. We upgraded to a room... More

The Monasterio's breakfast is fantastic! Delicious and unique breads and pastries with unthinkable flavors, such as cactus fruit jam. Plenty of fruit and cereals, the french toast cooked to order are delicious. And the best cappuccino I've had in Cusco with a lovely courtyard, made my morning so special!

We liked Hotel Monasterio. It was a little bit creepy in my opinion sleeping in a former monastery, but it was beautiful and centrally located. The was a little chapel for prayers, and plenty of choices for breakfast. The courtyard was beautifully landscaped, and even though the rooms are a bit plain they are comfortable.

We spent a total of 6 nights at the Monasterio (4 nights before our Mountain Lodges of Peru Salkantay hike and 2 after) and loved every minute. The grounds are beautiful, the rooms were comfortable and well appointed, and the breakfast, included with our room, was fantastic. There was a wide range of options including a full buffet of exceptional... More

The center of the hotel has a beautifully landscaped courtyard and while the rooms aren't large, they are very comfortable and well appointed. We even have a patio with... More

We arrived late at night after a great journey on the Hiram Bingham express. We were only really able to appreciate the beauty of this hotel the next morning when the sun streamed into the courtyard. The rooms are great, service top-notch and food delicious. Every thing is catered for and we went for walks around cusco but came back... More

Our group of six had an absolutely delightful time at a cooking class led by two Hotel Monasterio chefs. They prepared the delicious meal in front of us, giving us history and preparation tips. The presentation of the different courses was just fantastic. The special Hotel Monasterio aprons and chef hats are indeed a great memento of the classs. After... More

This is a wonderful experience and deal @ $100 not to be missed! One does not have to be a guest at the hotel to enjoy the beauty, welcoming and excellent service, incredible food, and local opera singers at this luxury hotel. After our cooking class with two chefs and an interpreter, we toured the 16th century monastery and chapel,... More
