Peru Holidays and Travel

What are the best hotels in Peru?

The infrastructure for tourism in Peru is exceptional and there are lots of wonderful hotels from which to choose. In the Andean mountain range you can stay at boutique, luxurious and charming hotels such as the Relais & Chateaux Sol y Luna. Profits from this first class hotel are reinvested into the orphanage run by the hotels owner. In Cusco, we advise opting for a hotel that's located in the heart of the old town so that you can enjoy the buzz of the city by day and night. For a charming, boutique and utterly first class hotel then the best is La Casona, although it does carry a price tag. A smaller and simpler option that carries a lower price tag is the Casa San Blas which is a centrally located option in the old quarter. In Lima, Hotel B is exceptional and a must for those looking for a refined and arty option in the bohemian neighbourhood.

There really are a wealth of good accommodation options, and it is easy to feel swamped by the vast amounts of information you can find on each. Take a moment to have a chat with one of our specialists, all of whom know every property we recommend exceptionally well. It really is worthwhile to talk through your various exciting Peru holiday options in order to find your perfect fit.

Top three Peru tips

Food: The food is spectacular and well worth venturing out of your comfort zone for. If you like seafood, you should try ceviche.

Cocktails: Try the zesty national cocktail, the pisco sour, a refreshing white grape based cocktail.

Visit a market: A local market is the hub of local life in the countryside and wandering around the hustle and bustle of a market is a great way to get an interesting insight into local life.
