Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Monasterio

Restoration of the landmark 1592 Monastery of San Antonio Abad—where the chapel has an ornate gold altar and Cusqueña art, and the serene cloister will take your breath away—allowed one of Cusco's top hotels to retain an austere beauty, from the elegant lounge bar to the compact rooms that blend colonial furnishings with remote-control window blinds, TVs that pop up from cabinets, and other mod-cons. For those having trouble adjusting to the altitude, the hotel offers an in-room oxygen enrichment service.
