Libertador Palacio del Inka

Frommer's Review

One of Cusco's top two hotels, the Libertador could just as easily be called the Conquistador. Directly across from the Inca Temple of the Sun and built on the foundations of the "Aclla Huyasi," where the Inca chieftain kept maidens, this elegant traditional hotel occupies a historic house once inhabited by none other than Francisco Pizarro. The handsome art- and antiques-filled hotel, just 4 blocks from the Plaza de Armas, is built around a dramatic colonial courtyard marked by perfect arches, terra-cotta tiles, and a Spanish-style fountain. The swank lobby has a massive pyramidal skylight and exposed Inca walls. Guest rooms are spacious and refined; furnishings have rustic colonial touches, and the marble bathrooms are large and well equipped. Many rooms have small terraces. But the Libertador perhaps most distinguishes itself with extremely attentive and professional service. The fine but pricey restaurant, Inti Raymi, is built around the edges of the courtyard and features a nightly dance and music show.
