Fodor's Expert Review Casa Andina Premium Arequipa
Ugarte 403, Arequipa, Arequipa, Peru Fodor's Choice
Set in the city's former coin mint, a national historical monument, this midsize hotel features massive colonial-era common rooms with arched stone walls, oil paintings, and period furnishings. The modern section of the hotel has rooms and suites featuring Andean weavings, contemporary furniture, and plush beds and bedding. Many rooms have romantic views of the city.

Alma, the on-site gourmet restaurant, serves creative Novo Andino cuisine in its chic yet historic dining area.
