Cusco's Belmond Palacio Nazarenas, built on Inca foundations and once a nun's convent, now offers gracious all-suite accommodation with discreet round-the-clock butler service, a heated outdoor pool and several terraces and courtyards where you can rest and enjoy the tranquil setting and the lovely architecture with Inca stonework and colonial frescos.

It is set in a small plaza near the main square, within walking distance of the city's main sites. As well as sightseeing and shopping, the hotel offers opportunities for cookery classes, pisco tasting and salsa dancing, while yoga sessions and spa treatments can help you relax.

Suites range in size from 30 up to 130 square metres and provide luxurious accommodation with the benefits of modern amenities such as air conditioning, flatscreen TV, Wi-Fi and iPad and a fully stocked bar, plus marble bathrooms with underfloor heating. Many have original features like stone walls and archways and have courtyard, gardens or city views, some with their own balcony. Specially oxygen-enriched air can be supplied to combat any signs of altitude sickness.

Dining at Senzo Restaurant is a memorable gastronomic experience. Authentic Andean dishes are given a contemporary edge and use herbs and edible flowers from the hotel's courtyard garden, where you can enjoy a sumptuous afternoon tea each day. The bar serves a range of hot and cold drinks including specially blended fruit juices, cocktails and wines. As a guest at Palacio Nazarenas, you'll have the option to dine at the neighbouring sister property, Hotel Monasterio.
