Aranwa Cusco Boutique Hotel


Last March we visited Cusco I believed for the 8th time.


This was kind of a business trip with some meetings and site inspection to new hotels.

I had the great opportunity to stay overnight at the Aranwa Cusco Boutique hotel.

I had previously stay at the Aranwa Sacred Valley Hotel & Wellness and it became my favorite one in that location so I had high expectations for the one in Cusco…they were exceeded!

A cozy room near the lobby
I absolutely love the hotel’s decoration with a strong religious-colonial influence that makes you feel in a luxury colonial mansion in Cusco but with all the modern facilities that are perfectly blended with the style. Paintings, sculptures and carvings are everywhere. The colors used on the walls, doors, some of the furniture can be all different but really well combined.
The table we took breakfast!
Rooms are all enhanced with oxygen. The moment you check in, they turn on the oxygen from the Front Desk so when you enter to the room you feel like if you were at sea level again! I helps you a lot to sleep without troubles and the risk of having the altitude sickness’ symptoms is small.
Our Deluxe Superior room
The location is good, a short walking distance from the main square, a little uphill if you are going to the hotel but many streets in Cusco are uphill so it can’t be avoided.


I didn’t have any chance to try the restaurant’s food other than the breakfast but I’ve heard really good comments about it.

This hotel can be included in any of the tours we offer, take a look of our suggested programs, click here!

CASA CARTAGENA BOUTIQUE HOTEL CUSCO


Our last trip to Cusco was enhanced by a pleasant stay in wonderful hotels.

We were invited by our local partners to experience the quality of service at great luxury boutique hotels; hopefully one of them was Casa Cartagena, located near Plaza Nazarenas and just steps away from Cusco’s main square.

I was so much looking forward to stay in this hotel since a while ago so I was really happy when I knew I will have the chance to finally stay there.

The service was neat and personalized. The moment I arrived I felt like at home! I actually felt I was the only guest there but I was surprised to see other guests having breakfast the next morning.

The room’s decoration is unusual, really modern and trendy but keeping a little of Andean flavor with details such us big black and white pictures of Andean landscape or people or the typical embroidered cushions on the beds.

I visited the spa and looks like a little piece of heaven inside of the city! Regretfully, I didn’t have much time to enjoy of it but comments from other guests were really good.

The jacuzzi at the hotel's spa
I will definitely recommend it, especially for couples!
