Hilton Garden Inn Cusco

Hilton reliability, with a rooftop view over Cusco's historic center.

  • Address: Av. Abancay 207, Cusco
  • District: Santa Ana (borde del centro historico)
  • Category: upscale-midscale

Hilton Garden Inn Cusco is a contemporary 137-room hotel built into the hillside of Santa Ana, a historic neighborhood on the edge of Cusco's centro historico -- about a 4-minute drive (1 km) or a steep 13-minute walk down to the Plaza de Armas, with an equally steep walk back up at altitude. Colonial-style courtyards and stone archways connect the property's public spaces, while El Mirador, the glass-walled rooftop lounge, opens onto sweeping views over the city's terracotta rooftops and the surrounding Andes. Guest rooms come with a king bed or two queen beds, a flat-screen TV, a mini-fridge, an electric kettle and a work desk. The hotel's restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, the bar pours cocktails into the evening, and a small 24-hour shop covers snacks and sundries; a spa with a yoga and treatment room, plus oxygen on request, help travelers adjust to Cusco's roughly 11,150-foot elevation. For travelers who value brand consistency and Hilton Honors points, it's a dependable, well-located base for exploring Cusco -- just budget a short taxi ride down to the historic center.
