Fodor's Expert Review Casa Morey
Calle Loreto 200, Iquitos, Loreto, Peru Fodor's Choice
Built by rubber baron Luis Morey in 1913, this restored mansion offers the most historic setting in Iquitos with high ceilings, colorful tile floors, and antique prints and photos that evoke the turn of the century when Iquitos was one of the world's main rubber suppliers. Four rooms upstairs have views of Plaza Ramón Castilla and the Itaya River. Interior rooms are quieter but darker. The hotel has a small pool in the courtyard, a library, and an elegant lobby.
PROS
- lovely building
- spacious rooms
- some river views
CONS
