Casa Cartagena CuscoHigh in the Peruvian Andes lies the historic city of Cuzco, famous for its unique blend of Spanish and Incan cultures. Located just off a tranquil square behind the main plaza of Cuzco, Casa Cartagena Boutique Hotel & Spa Cusco emerges after years of restoration, which respected the original design of the historic house, to become one of the most exclusive boutique hotels in the city. Its walls of carved stone, which combines warmth, elegance and perfection, invite you to experience the fascinating magic and traditional mysticism that will transport you through time in this historic Spanish house declared a cultural heritage site of Peru.Its lovely atmosphere was built on an ancient Incan site, occupied by the ruling nobility of that time and from which it takes its name: Casa Cartagena, former property of the local Spanish ruler of Cuzco, Don Fernando Cartagena and Santa Cruz.This luxury hotel in Cuzco is an intimate refuge that has only sixteen spacious and comfortable suites, which perfectly blend the modern with the ancestral and luxury with the historical. The rooms are distributed symmetrically along a spacious patio of your dreams where time is suspended. It is located in the historic center of Cuzco, which was declared by UNESCO as a world heritage site.Recovery from an exhausting trip to Machu Picchu or the Sacred Valley of the Incas with our Qoya Spa will be something truly unequalled. It can be perfectly complemented with a delicious dinner in our restaurant which offers the best of local cuisine, "La bodega de la Chola", where poet Pablo Neruda was inspired and Che Guevara shared bohemian nights; it is considered one of the best restaurants in Cuzco.All of these unique features of Casa Cartagena and our warm and personalized service will make your stay in Cuzco an experience you will never forget.

Our family of five stayed at Case Cartagena in January. We had two rooms - one very large master suite (with a living room attached) and one bedroom with three separate beds for my three kids. We loved everything about the hotel. It is a beautiful oasis of quiet in an otherwise bustling city with an excellent location. The rooms are well appointed, the service was excellent and the breakfast was outstanding (offerings and service). Highly recommended. My only suggestion would be to incorporate windows (with bug screens perhaps?) into the doors that open into the courtyard, both for fresh air and to keep the rooms cool.

The food is amazing!!! All of it is homemade. Do not go to the center because the best restraint is at your hotel. My meals cost 3 dollars and tasted like 100. The rooms are so comfy. You must come if you plan on coming to Cusco. The waiter for the restaurant is the nicest guy and room service is amazing. Trust me

Fantastic stay at this beautifull hotel. The staff was great and the breakfast was plentiful and very tasty. The food at the restaurant was great and we got a free cocktail each evening. They stored our luggage free of charge while being on a 2 day hike. The hotel is located in the very beautiful historic district of Cusco. The room was large, quiet and had a balcony towards the peaceful courtyard. They have a steam room and heated pool. The massages are great. Shout out to Manny, he cared for all of our needs.

Nice boutique hotel. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Interesting selection of acrylic furniture which seemed out of place as this is an old colonial building. Great location and nice court yard. Good spa area. In general this is a really nice place to stay in the heart of Cusco.

My husband and I stayed here for two nights when we were visiting Cusco. Amazing hotel- beautifully decorated and maintained, welcome tea and snacks were thoughtful, breakfast incredible, the courtyard is lovely, super convenient location, and the friendliest and most professional staff I've ever encountered (Moni, Sandro, Samud, and Angy in particular). Would recommend highly. Bonus- free Pisco Sour lessons- lots of fun and delicious.

We had a pleasant stay at this hotel for 3 nights after our trip to Machu Picchu. The beautiful courtyard & the convenient location was the reason we chose this hotel. What has exceed our expectation was the great services! Devis was able to recognise us & remember our trip arrangement time every day we encounter him during our stay. He was attentive at all times and passionate to share with us knowledge about food & drinks of Cusco. It was also very easy to communicate with him in English. The spa receptionist (sorry I forgot her name) was also very friendly and easy to communicate with. I think the hotel management team should also recognise the staff who carefully managed the plants throughout the courtyard, they are all very well-managed and pretty! The spa treatment we had was good but one small comment on the CST treatment. It may not be the one that we expected, it felt like more of a normal head massage.

From the start of my stay to the end of it I felt so welcomed and pampered! I had to acclimatize to the high altitude when I arrived so just chilled and moved slowly. I did manage a walk to the main square. Got a massage later that day from the spa which was ok. It was weird how the same music kept repeating. Had to tell her to stop as it too much and not making me relax at all! That was the only bad experience really.. everything else was great! The food and the presentation were amazing. And the service was bar none! Thank you again, Kevin and team..!

If you come to Cusco, this is the place to stay. Easily WALKABLE to EVERYTHING, yet as soon as you walk through the front doors. You are greeted with seclusion and tranquility within the beautiful courtyard of this place. The staff is attentive to every detail, and as a bonus, you get Pisco Sour tasting provided by them. I wish I could give this place 1000 stars, as they deserve it. Stay here. You will fall in love.

Wow! We cannot say enough good things about this beatiful hotel and exceptional staff. After long days of exploring, it was so nice to come back to a place that truly felt like home. Angie, Mani, Claudia, and the entire Casa Cartagena staff were so kind and accomodating. They anticipated our every need and even prepared a hot, fresh meal for us one minute before the restaurant closed! The impecable service, gorgeous spa (complete with a eucalyptus-infused sauna) delicious food, and great location makes this a place we will definitely come back to again and again!
