Restored to its original grandeur, this colonial mansion is one of the finest hotels in Arequipa’s historic centre, and is as much a living museum as it is hotel. Inhabiting the 1794 former Mint House, a national historic monument, it was meticulously restored and remodelled in 2008 after a century of neglect, and features vaulted ceilings, colonial courtyards and an elegant restaurant. Five large suites have Republican-era flavour in the traditional building and 36 new rooms occupy a modern adjunct structure situated off an interior patio.
