A massive stone door—that's what Rumi Punku means in Quechua—opens onto a rambling complex of balconies, patios, gardens, courtyards, terraces, fireplace, and bits of Inca wall scattered here and there. It all links a series of pleasantly furnished rooms with hardwood floors and comfy beds covered with plush blankets. The top-level sauna and gym has stupendous views of the city. Expansions were being planned at this writing, so watch out for changes. Pros: Great views from the upstairs sauna, good hot water 24 hours a day, charming rambling layout. Cons: Lots of stairs, no restaurant, located a huff and puff up the hill.
