The beds are king or queen size, you’ll have a bathtub and separate shower, and either a balcony or terrace. Around the hotel, geometric designs on the floors and walls take their inspiration from the petroglyphs and textiles of pre-Incan cultures.
The dining options will suit your mood and taste, whether it is to sample the innovative blend of Peruvian and international cuisine at the Ballestas Restaurant, or go for more casual Italian-style options at La Trattoria.
If seafood is your taste, there is plenty on offer at Chalana, and perhaps this could be followed by a sun-downer at the open-air bar by the pool.
