Leading Hotels of the World Adds Four Orient-Express Hotels in Peru
August 6, 2010
Orient-Express' Peru collection of hotels earns prestigious recognition by joining The Leading Hotels of the World, Ltd. Orient-Express Peru accepted the invitation to join the esteemed organization in confidence that this strategic partnership will contribute and further position the Orient-Express collection and Peru as a world-class destination for every traveler. Highlighted as the only hotels in Peru to be a part of The Leading Hotels of the World, Ltd., the Orient-Express Peru collection includes Las Casitas del Colca, Hotel Monasterio, the Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge, and Miraflores Park Hotel.
Located in Colca Canyon in Arequipa,
Las Casitas del Colca
invites guests to relax in the majestic landscape that surrounds one of the deepest canyons in the world. As a rare jewel of Cusquenian architecture, the
Hotel Monasterio
offers guests centuries of culture with unequalled Peruvian hospitality. Known for its exclusive proximity to the Inca ruins, the
Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge
welcomes all to indulge in one of the world's most fascinating mysteries. Considered one of Lima's finest hotels,
Miraflores Park Hotel
is situated on the edge of the beautiful Pacific Ocean and is ideal for the business and leisure travelers.
The Leading Hotels of the World, Ltd., as its name suggests, brings together hotels that perfectly combine hospitality, comfort and luxury; a characteristic that truly defines Orient-Express. Now, the world's most discerning travelers can have a luxury travel experience in Peru, entirely with Orient-Express Hotels. Each hotel is an integral component to the Peruvian collection – with each property evoking a unique environment and travel experience through the most attractive customs and cultural features that surround each hotel.
With the latest reopening announcement of the Hiram Bingham and full PeruRail train service, guests can now experience every angle of luxury that Orient-Express has to offer while visiting Peru. The deluxe train service to Machu Picchu's Inca Citadel has resumed operations from Cusco to Machu Picchu with services beginning from all stations including Cusco, Poroy and Ollantaytambo. Known for its breathtaking journey through the surrounding landscapes of the Andes Mountains, the luxurious Hiram Bingham departs from the Poroy/Cusco station at 9:05AM and includes brunch for all guests traveling outward. Upon arrival, guests have access to an exclusive entrance into the Sanctuary with an additional guided tour of the Citadel. After exploring the world's most impressive ruins, the Hiram Bingham departs from Machu Picchu at 5:50PM with guests enjoying cocktails, live entertainment and a four-course gourmet menu on the return journey.

Additionally, Orient-Express recently announced the acquisition of a fifth property in Peru, the Hotel Rio Sagrado, in the Sacred Valley of the Incas. The 21 suite hotel, which opened in April 2009, is a rustic two-storey property set in beautiful gardens overlooking the Urubamba River. With an imposing mountain backdrop, Hotel Rio Sagrado is three kilometers from the town of Urubamba and fifteen minutes from Ollantaytambo, home to an important Inca village and fortress, as well as the main PeruRail station stop en route to Machu Picchu. The hotel has eleven deluxe and ten junior suites plus two 250m² villas, constructed from natural stone and woods such as eucalyptus and cedar, with marble and onyx bathrooms and flagstone terraces. Its 230m² spa has a large treatment room with views of the mighty Urubamba, indoor and outdoor Jacuzzis and a sauna.
