VERIFIED LUXURY

Learn How We Inspect

Checking into Palacio Nazarenas, A Belmond Hotel, Cusco feels like slipping into a beautifully preserved slice of Peruvian history, only with butler service, heated bathroom floors and oxygen-enriched suites. Set in a former 17th-century convent, this all-suite sanctuary blends ancient Inca stonework and colonial charm with contemporary luxury. Hand-painted frescoes, private terraces and four-poster beds create a regal ambiance, while the serene courtyard and tranquil pool (the only outdoor heated pool in Cusco) offer peaceful refuge from the city's high-altitude buzz.

But what truly sets Palacio Nazarenas apart is its seamless sense of place. From the in-house library filled with local artifacts to the Andean ingredients used in spa treatments and fine dining, everything feels rooted in Peruvian culture. Steps from Plaza de Armas yet cocooned in quiet elegance, it’s an ideal base for exploring the Sacred Valley or simply soaking in Cusco’s historic soul.

Each of Palacio Nazarenas, A Belmond Hotel’s 55 suites is equipped with supplemental oxygen to ease altitude adjustment and features luxe amenities like heated floors, marble bathrooms and 24-hour butler service.
Need to unwind? Hypnôze Spa uses native botanicals and ancient Andean healing techniques in a setting that feels like a hidden sanctuary. A dip in Cusco’s first outdoor heated pool is also highly recommended.

Get a taste of Peru at Mauka, Palacio Nazarenas’ recently refreshed signature restaurant helmed by renowned local chef Pía León (whose credentials include heralded Lima spots Kjolle and Central).
