Fantastic place to stay close to the center with a mix of modern decor in an antique house. Really enjoyed everything about it from breakfast to how kind the staff was and the great recommendations they give for places to eat, places to visit, etc. Only downside: out of our budget to stay here for too many days.

We stayed at this fabulous hotel for three nights. The hotel location was ideal close to the main square. The room was large and the bathroom was very nicely appointed with shower, tub and candles The staff were the best we have ever experienced in any hotel in any country. They did everything we asked. My wife and I were... More

We stayed two nights in this hotel and had a great experience, all of the staff were very helpful. The hotel is in a recently renovated colonial residence with ultra modern decor and huge rooms! Its just a few blocks from the main square and on a very quiet street. We did not have dinner in the hotel, but the... More

Contemporary appointments in a classic old world quadrangle hotel. Located a couple blocks off the main tourist square, it is a bit quieter than a couple of the other nice hotels in the area. Rooms are large and beds are firm. The staff was attentive without being overbearing. We took advantage of a complimentary Pisco Sour mixing lesson and those... More

We arrived at Casa Cartagena after a long train journey from Puno. Even in the dark it was clear that the place was something special.

We stayed here twice, both before and after our trip to the Sacred Valley. The hotel is very well appointed, with a great blend of old and new although I guess that some people may struggle with the contemporary aspects - it certainly worked well for us. The food was top class (I have written a separate review of the... More

Casa Cartagena is a beautifully maintained and designed hotel, with a lovely spa, a wonderful and attentive staff and an excellent restaurant. And the location is superb. The setting, built around a courtyard, is charming.

We arrived in Cuzco a bit bedraggled, having spent days in the Amazon rainforest where there was an abundance of mud and a shortage of hot water. Thus, we had one thing only on our minds: a warm bath and a long shower. It was our great luck, then, to discover that our room featured one of the most spectacular... More

Apparently this hotel is Italian owned. It certainly shows it in the beautiful Italian contemporary furniture, lighting, staff uniforms and decor. There are traditional Peruvian touches as well with wall hangings and ceramics which blend with the new. The restaurant food is fantastic. Try the black quinoa risotto or the trio of pastas. Breakfast is lavish and all the staff... More
