CIRQA Hotel - Arequipa, Peru

With its privileged location in the historic heart of Arequipa, just one block from the main square, our intimate luxury hotel traces its roots to the 16th century San Agustin Church. Today, those ancient church walls, columns and arches – crafted from local volcanic rock – still form the heart of this exclusive Relais & Châteaux property. Centered around two inviting patios, CIRQA’s 11 guestrooms are evocatively furnished and feature a smart High Definition television, complimentary snacks and beverages, luxury linens and fine organic bath amenities. Using the finest locally-sourced ingredients, the hotel’s kitchen prepares traditional Peruvian cuisine with a contemporary flair – and served in a beautiful light-filled dining room.
