- Exceptional, personalized staff service that helps with altitude sickness and early treks

Rychlý přehled: It's located up a steep hill which can be brutal with luggage and altitude, and the historic building means you'll hear your neighbors in the hallway.
Recenzoval @woodfordsworldwide: I found the perfect home base in Cusco! Our room had gorgeous traditional Peruvian touches, and the lobby's free oxygen and filtered water completely saved us from altitude sickness. Eating breakfast on the rooftop patio with those city views was the highlight of my mornings.

- You appreciate historic, colonial-style charm and handmade textiles
- You want to be in the artsy, quieter San Blas neighborhood
- You value personalized service and thoughtful touches over modern luxury
