Unveiling the Historical Richness and Elegance at the Palacio del Inka, a Luxury Collection Hotel
Cusco consistently amazes and fascinates as a tourist destination par excellence. Its richness stems from multiple factors: the extraordinary fertility of its land amidst the imposing Andes, the fantastic pre-Hispanic legacy, and the crown jewel of Inca buildings, tradition, and culture. Moreover, the magnificent Vice-Palacio del Inka, a Luxury Collection, allows visitors to immerse themselves in this royal heritage and much more. The hotel offers an amazing amalgamation of luxury and history.
Indeed, it is a pioneering company that has consistently upheld the reputation of the country. It was the first five-star hotel in Cusco and the inaugural Marriott hotel in Peru. Subsequently, it transformed into Golden Tulip and Sheraton, consistently maintaining its high quality. In 2012, following a significant renovation with a substantial investment, it now boasts 203 rooms, including splendid suites. The brand has evolved into its current form, assuring guests unforgettable experiences.
The hotel's facilities are formidable. Positioned in a privileged location facing the Coricancha, the Temple of the Sun, on sturdy Inca foundations and stone walls set with remarkable precision, the colonial building, La Casona de los Cuatro Bustos, once the residence of the Marquis of Salas y Valdez, stands proudly. The entire structure, with its overwhelming beauty, has been meticulously adapted to appropriately showcase the distinct attributes of each section, corresponding to various historical periods. The halls, corridors, and other spaces also house a collection of precious objects and works of art of great value.
Beyond its infrastructure and the comfort guaranteed by its rooms, the hotel's service deserves special mention. El Palacio del Inka, a Luxury Collection Hotel, has consistently been the benchmark for quality. Its high standards have set the tone nationwide. Here, attention to detail and the creation of meaningful connections with guests are top priorities. Every gesture and interaction counts."
The Palacio del Inka features a first-class restaurant, Inti Raymi, presenting a menu of novo-Andean cuisine that highlights signature dishes crafted with local products in a gourmet style. Additionally, it boasts a top-tier bar: Rumi.
Moreover, as part of the hotel's offerings, two programs stand out. Firstly, Discovery Destinations, a tour arranged every afternoon for guests, where they are led by specialized personnel to explore the hotel point by point, delving into its history. This tour concludes with a mesmerizing Inca music show by Kuntur, featuring a performance in Quechua with Inca instruments, captivating the audience.
The second program, named Encounter of Two Worlds, begins with a visit to the market guided by the chef. During this visit, guests choose cooking ingredients for use in a private cooking class. After leaving the market, guests embark on a guided tour of the center of the imperial city, returning to the hotel through the Coricancha. The experience concludes with a cooking session and lunch.
The Palacio del Inka continues to set the standard for quality, providing memorable experiences to its guests and contributing to the economic reactivation of the region and the entire country through its excellent services.
