At a glance
Inkaterra La Casona sits on Plaza de las Nazarenas in the San Blas district of Cusco, a 16th-century colonial manor house that stands on what was once the training ground for an elite Inca army.
After the Spanish conquest, it became one of the most significant addresses in colonial Peru, with Spanish Conquistador Diego de Almagro and Libertador Simón Bolívar among its historical guests.
Restored over five years by Inkaterra, it is now Cusco’s first five-star boutique hotel and a Relais & Châteaux member, with just 11 suites arranged around a central courtyard.
The Museum of Pre-Columbian Art is next door and the Cathedral is a ten-minute walk away.

The Tea Time experience, a highlight of the stay, features Inkaterra’s award-winning organic black tea alongside Andean snacks in the courtyard.

Spa
The Yacu Therapy Room offers bespoke treatments using locally sourced products, combining ancient Andean traditions with contemporary wellness practices.
Treatments include aromatherapy, body scrubs, reflexology, deep-tissue massage and hot stone massage. The spa uses Inkaterra’s own range of products derived from Andean botanical ingredients.
Peru
Peru sits on the western edge of South America, bordered by Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, Bolivia, and Chile, with a long Pacific coastline to the west. The country divides into three distinct geographical zones: the narrow coastal desert strip, the Andes mountain range running through the center, and the Amazon basin to the east. Each has its own climate, culture, and character, and a well-planned Peru itinerary can take in all three.
Our Experts
I love traveling in Peru because of the perfect balance of fascinating culture, stunning scenery and five-star luxury. It's one of my favourite destinations to plan vacations to.
Machu Picchu is somewhere that everyone should visit at some point. It's a true spectacle, and can easily be paired with fantastic luxury accommodation to create your dream Peruvian experience.
Stellar service. Stellar products. Stellar people and it gets so much better when you pick up the phone and call.

Luxury Peru: Machu Picchu & the Amazon
Tailor-made VacationFew destinations handle the combination of adventure and indulgence as well as Peru does. The Sacred Valley opens up like a geography lesson in superlatives: the Inca citadel of Machu Picchu floating above the clouds, terraced mountainsides falling away to the Urubamba River, and Andean light that makes everything look like it was lit for a film.

Machu Picchu & the Galápagos: A Luxury Journey
Tailor-made VacationThis itinerary is built around two of the most extraordinary destinations on the planet. Machu Picchu, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, is a fifteenth-century Inca citadel set on a mountain ridge in the cloud forest at 2,430 meters above sea level, hidden from the outside world until 1911 and still capable of stopping people in their tracks.

Luxury Peru: Lima, Cusco & Machu Picchu with Belmond
Tailor-made VacationPeru is one of the great travel destinations, and this journey covers it at the level it deserves. Lima is one of South America's finest food cities, with Central and Maido consistently ranking among the best restaurants in the world. Cusco is the former capital of the Inca Empire, its colonial churches and palaces built directly onto Inca stone foundations that have outlasted everything placed on top of them.
