Description

The basic architecture of the hotel, which was entirely built with materials from the surrounding area, contributes to offer an authentic Colca Canyon experience. From your comfortable room, enjoy sweeping views of the lovely landscape, which still contains the original pre-Inca agricultural terracing that locals use to this day.

The interior rooms of the lodge are mostly wooden with thatched roofs, reminiscent of a cozy alpine lodge albeit with an Andean twist. In the tastefully decorated lounge, guests can cozy up next to the fireplace and enjoy a locally inspired cocktail while relaxing after a busy day of exploring. The staff is friendly, professional, and eager to make your experience a pleasant one.

As well, views from the hotel’s restaurant are truly beyond compare. With large windows that provide spectacular views of the valley, this restaurant will be one of your favorite places in the Colca Canyon. Guests can sample delicious and freshly prepared regional and international cuisine, and enjoy cocktails in the atmospheric bar.

Room Amenities

The hotel comprises 28 rustic yet inviting and comfortable rooms all equipped with private bathrooms, 24-hour hot water, and heating. The minimalist décor, featuring warm brown colors and wooden floors, makes for an authentic ambiance.
