Inkaterra La Casona<br />
The prestigious National Geographic magazine included Inkaterra<br />
La Casona Hotel on its list of the most iconic hotels in the world.<br />
Located in a XVI Century mansion where <strong>Peru</strong>vian icons Simon<br />
Bolivar and Diego de Almagro spent time, the Casona was the<br />
first boutique hotel in the city of Cusco. The establishment was<br />
recognized for its superior <strong>Peru</strong>vian-influenced cuisine, and its<br />
luxury spa that uses local botanicals, amongst other outstanding<br />
qualities. “These hotels are guaranteed to enrich any travel<br />
experience,” assures the magazine.<br />

The Creative Group multinational corporation included <strong>Peru</strong><br />
in its list of best countries in the world for incentive trips. Our<br />
country occupied third place after Portugal and Croatia. “The<br />
listed destinations were chosen because of the quantity of<br />
activities and different landscapes you can get from one single<br />
place,” the company explained. <strong>Peru</strong> shines because of the<br />
interesting combination of history and urban architecture<br />
found in Lima, as well as the opportunity to experience the<br />
unforgettable Machu Picchu.<br />
