“Awesome and historical place. Staff was attentive and professional. The rooms were very comfortable and everything was so ornate. Former monastery.”

“The Belmond Monasterio is an excellent property full of history and character. I would've given The Monasterio a full five stars, except there's a catch, and I'll explain later.
The Monasterio is located a mere 5 minute walk (7 if you're taking it easy and acclimating to the altitude like we were) from Cusco's Plaza de Las Armas, the main city square. It is also part of Nazarena Square, which has its share of restaurants and shops. For this reason, you're never far from the places of interest and activity in Cusco.
As with the other Belmond properties we've stayed at, the true star of the show at The Monasterio is its entire cast. Everyone we encountered was helpful and friendly. No complaints here.
We had lunch at Illariy, The Monasterio's casual dining option. The food did not disappoint, and as usual, service was impeccable.
We stayed at one of The Monasterio's one-bedroom courtyard suites. The suite was beautifully appointed with elegant contemporary furniture that juxtaposed nicely against the 17th century artwork that adorned the walls throughout the hotel. The suite was spacious, and the service team at The Monasterio graciously welcomed us with the charcuterie and cheese platter as well as with a chilled bottle of Moet & Chandon champagne. We couldn't find any fault with that.
However, if there's one significant miss that the hotel's designers should've addressed, it's the bathroom in this suite. The bathroom itself is spacious; that's not the problem, but when not adequately heated, that can be problematic. Keep in mind we visited The Monasterio during Peru's spring, so the weather was cool especially in the evenings. Taking a shower was a challenge in that it was difficult to keep warm. The stone floor of the bathroom is not heated, so one can't comfortably walk around barefoot. The shower is open on one end, so even with the shower running, the steam doesn't keep you warm at all. The Belmond should consider installing floor heat or heat lamps or a space heater safe for humid rooms. In my opinion, this was a significant demerit.
That aside, I would wholeheartedly recommend The Monasterio.”
