Fodor's Expert Review Casa del Sol Boutique Hotel

Av. Imperio de los Incas 608, Aguas Calientes, Cusco, Peru

The decor and the setting by the river are what make this hotel special—wood floors, beams, and window frames give rooms an elegant yet warm atmosphere; textile art adorns the walls; and stone-and-marble bathrooms blend perfectly with the natural environment outside. As you would expect from this standard of lodging, the beds and pillows are comfortable and the linens and towels of the highest quality; alpaca throws are a nice touch. Splurge for one of the three suites, and you won't be disappointed. They face the river and have enclosed balconies with private Jacuzzis. The spa includes massage rooms, a spacious steam room, a sauna, and a Jacuzzi with a prime view of the river.

PROS

  • beautiful design and lush comfort
  • less expensive than other luxury options
  • suites have balconies with Jacuzzis

CONS

  • train noise from tracks just outside the hotel—ask for a riverside room
  • less exclusive service than the other top options
  • only three suites with Jacuzzis
