The 2018 World's Best City Hotels in Central & South America

"Even without the backstory, Inkaterra La Casona, built within a 16th-century manor house anchored by a grassy courtyard, is a compelling spot to stay. It has a mere 11 suites, each with a wood fireplace and a pedestal tub big enough to swim in. The vibe is Peruvian through and through, with pre-Columbian-style weavings and Spanish colonial furnishings. Everywhere you look there’s some new detail to catch, be it the intricate carving on a wooden door or the frescoes bordering the ceiling. But the history puts this hotel on a whole other level: it was built on the foundations of a training ground for the Incan army, and at one point it was the home of the legendary Simón Bolívar." - Travel + Leisure Editors
