PB hotel design editorial

Erected in 1595 as the Seminary of San Antonio Abad, the building at the heart of Cusco's Centro Histórico survived conquest, earthquakes, and the full arc of colonial Peru before Belmond transformed it into Monasterio, a 126-room hotel whose essential character was always going to be determined by what its architects chose not to touch. The decision proved correct. The arcaded cloister, built from pale Andean limestone in the Spanish Renaissance manner, remains the spatial anchor — a formally planted garden at its centre, terracotta-tiled rooflines stepping around it, a single old tree rising above the parterres of clipped box and seasonal flowers exactly as it might have done for the seminary's original occupants. Inside, the interiors layer Cusco School paintings, carved colonial woodwork, and dark cedar four-poster beds against whitewashed plaster walls and terracotta-tiled floors, the weight of ecclesiastical history carried lightly enough that the rooms feel inhabited rather than museological. The vaulted bar — its stone ceiling unchanged from its convent origins — is furnished with red high-backed chairs and elaborate carved timber joinery, candlelight playing across herringbone brick floors and gilded frames. The restaurant runs along the cloister arcade, draped in white linen curtains that soften the cut-stone columns without concealing them. What the conversion understood, and what makes the property still worth the pilgrimage, is that the architecture already contained everything the design needed.

"Monasterio, A Belmond Hotel, Cusco is truly an extraordinary place to stay. The property is exceptional, with a beautiful atmosphere that perfectly blends colonial elegance with the rich spirit of the Inca culture. The magnificent colonial architecture, peaceful courtyards, and stunning surroundings make you feel as if you’ve stepped back in time while still enjoying every modern luxury. The rooms are beautiful, spacious, and full of character, making the stay both comfortable and unforgettable. Every member of the staff was warm, friendly, and genuinely supportive, providing outstanding service from the moment we arrived. One of the highlights of the hotel is **El Tupay**, the on-site restaurant. It offers one of the most unique dining experiences in Cusco, combining delicious cuisine with an elegant ambiance that makes the evening truly special. I highly recommend Monasterio, A Belmond Hotel, Cusco to anyone looking for luxury, history, and exceptional hospitality in one unforgettable destination."

"Fantastic hotel in a gorgeous setting. The way they have turned the monastery into such a beautiful luxury hotel is wonderful. The room was huge with a private patio and large bathroom. Our meal in the Tupay restaurant was excellent and the service was superb. We were lucky to be there on a night when they have opera singers and the performance was beautiful. The other restaurant, Oqre, had a lovely breakfast buffet with excellent service. The location is excellent and the staff is very attentive."
