Fodor's Expert Review Los Tambos Boutique Hotel

Puente Bolognesi 129, Arequipa, Arequipa, Peru

Located half a block from the Plaza de Armas, this stylish boutique hotel offers practical, comfortable rooms with a very homey atmosphere. Arched wooden doors open to cozy interiors featuring clean, simple rooms with dark tiled floors and cream-colored walls. Dishes served during the free breakfast are made entirely with local ingredients such as papaya arequipeña and kiwicha (superfood grain). An intimate terrace delivers postcard-perfect views of the San Agustín church and the cathedral's towers jutting against the volcanic background.
