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 />

PERU, THE THIRD<br />

BEST DESTINATION<br />

FOR INCENTIVES<br />

INKATERRA LA CASONA<br />

AMONGST THE MOST<br />

ICONIC HOTELS<br />

<strong>Peru</strong> proudly houses two of the top restaurants chosen within the ranking<br />

of the ‘World’s 50 Best Restaurants’, an award ceremony that takes place<br />

in Spain. Chef Virgilio Martinez’ Central was ranked as number six, while<br />

Mitsuharu Tsumura’s Maido came in at number seven. Additionally, chef<br />

Gaston Acurio’s career trajectory and the role he played in <strong>Peru</strong>’s relatively<br />

recent gastronomic revolution was honoured and celebrated, as he was<br />

awarded the Diner’s Club Lifetime Achievement Award. His restaurant,<br />

Astrid and Gaston, claimed the 39th spot on the prestigious list.<br />

CENTRAL AND<br />

MAIDO MAKE THE<br />

WORLD’S TOP 10<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 />
