Antigua Casona San Blas CUSCO, PERU
The haven of Antigua Casona San Blas is tucked away among the cobblestone streets of one of Cusco’s oldest neighbourhoods. Known for its vibrant artisan community and picturesque streets, San Blas is full of old-world charm that’s sure to delight guests. This restored Spanish mansion-turned-boutique hotel is a vibrant part of the neighbourhood, featuring curated exhibits, a central patio with fireplaces, restaurant, a spa and its very own yoga studio. The Antigua experience is tailored around guests’
wellbeing. Indulge in the private spa, which offers holistic wellness experiences such as the Inka Trail Healing — a two-hour spa session with a steam bath, whirlpool bath, Spanish-style shower, therapeutic massage and a 15-minute reflexology treatment. Find equilibrium with the Welcome to Altitude experience, which begins in a hyperbaric chamber and finishes up with a therapeutic massage, or indulge in a hot stone or Andean herbal massage. Drop in to a yoga class in the heated studio,
Exhala Yoga. Beautiful Amazonian hardwood floors and twisting vines provide a peaceful space to connect inward amid the high energy of Cusco.
Come morning, guests can enjoy the made-to-
order a la carte breakfast options from Piedra & Sal restaurant, including almond pancakes, french toast with a hint of orange, or local smoked trout on a croissant. Enjoy a cup of coffee freshly brewed with beans from Cafe Origenes, a local fair trade partner. Enjoy a candle-lit dinner, where the head chef
cooks Peruvian recipes such as ají de gallina al Batan, ceviche Nikkei, or seco a lo Norteño. Sip on a refreshing cocktail, like a Matacuy Sour or Sol y Sombra, around one of the fireplaces on the central patio. Explore a selection of South American and international wines from the private wine cave. All rooms are outfitted with hand-made furniture
made from local wood, while the linen on the king- size beds is high-quality and allergen-free. Enjoy the refined amenities and cosy turn-down service, complete with hot water bottles and sleepy-time tea. The hotel focuses on reducing its carbon
footprint through the reduction of plastics, reusable amenities, high-efficiency heating systems, solar panels for hot water consumption and filtered water provided throughout the property.
