You can read my trip reports here:<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Cirqa \u2013 a Relaix & Chateaux Hotel – echoes the wonders of 1540 \u2014 the year in which Arequipa was founded \u2014 and magnificently celebrates the city\u2019s immaculate white sheen. This recently restored former monastery embodies Arequipa\u2019s traditional architecture by flaunting its original sillar volcanic rock walls, which were carefully sculpted by local stonemasons. The captivating decor adds a modern touch, creating a unique balance between the past and present. The eleven rooms, some with restored vaulted ceilings, surround the main terraza & patio.\u00a0 At the hotel\u2019s Sal\u00f3n, the cuisine is an innovative reinterpretation of the region\u2019s gastronomic soul and iconic picanter\u00edas, and can be enjoyed while admiring the prodigious lunar landscapes that surround this delectable haven of peace. Cirqa is not simply a place to stay; it is a memory in and of itself.<\/p>\n Cirqa features in my top 10 list of the best luxury hotels in Peru<\/a>.<\/p>\n Have you ever stayed at Cirqa?
