Monasterio a Belmond
Some places have a unique aura — a mix of history and timeless beauty. The Monasterio, A Belmond Hotel in Cusco is one such place. This former monastery dating from 1592 rises in the heart of the old town, surrounded by winding alleys and colonial architecture. When you walk through the imposing wooden doors, you immediately feel the story in the stone walls. Instead of monastic rigour, guests will find an atmosphere of warmth, elegance and cozy luxury.

When you walk through the imposing wooden doors, you immediately feel the story in the stone walls. Instead of monastic rigour, guests will find an atmosphere of warmth, elegance and cozy luxury.
First impressions: A touch of history and charm
As soon as you step into the courtyard, the special atmosphere of the house is revealed: a magnificent garden with a rippling fountain, which reflects the light of the Andean sun. The cloister corridors are lined with imposing arches and century-old works of art, the subtle scent of fresh flowers blends with the aroma of burning wood from the fireplace rooms. There is a pleasant peace in the air — as if the time were a little slower here.
The rooms: historic setting with modern comfort
Anyone who enters the monastery will quickly discover that it is not just a hotel, but a piece of living history. The rooms and suites are decorated with colonial furniture, handmade wooden beam ceilings and fine textiles. Soft beds with high-quality bedding invite you to sink in, while large windows offer views of Cusco's rooftops or the green courtyard. A special feature of the hotel: Some rooms are enriched with additional oxygen — a treat for guests who first have to get used to the high altitude of the city.

Culinary experiences: Andean cuisine meets international refinement
Breakfast at Monasterio is an experience in itself. Freshly baked bread, tropical fruits and the finest Peruvian coffee are the perfect start to the day. In the evening, the hotel's restaurant offers an exquisite mix of Andean specialities and international haute cuisine. From juicy lamb with quinoa to freshly caught fish from the Amazon — the cuisine uses local ingredients and combines tradition with modern refinement. In the house bar, you can round off the evening with a pisco sour in soft candlelight.
Wellness and relaxation at the highest level
After a day of exploring Cusco, there is nothing better than a relaxing massage at the in-house spa. Warm oils and soft sounds provide deep relaxation. Alternatively, the quiet courtyard invites you to simply pause and enjoy the moment — whether with a good book or simply with a view of the azure sky over the Andes.

For adventurous people, the hotel organizes exclusive tours to the Sacred Valley of the Incas or to the breathtaking ruins of Machu Picchu.
Conclusion: A place where past and present merge
The Monasterio is more than a hotel — it is a journey back in time to Peru's rich history, combined with the comfort and elegance of a modern luxury hotel. Those who stay here not only experience Cusco, but also dive into a world full of stories, charm and timeless beauty.
