Monasterio, A Belmond Hotel, Cusco

High up in Cusco, Monasterio Hotel is a former 16th-century seminary with Incan roots and serious style. Picture stunning Baroque architecture, courtyards that look straight out of a movie, and rooms that even come with oxygen to combat the effects of the altitude. It’s right in the heart of Cusco, just steps from amazing ruins and lively plazas. The atmosphere is both historic and refreshingly modern, with pisco sours and coca tea flowing freely.
