Calle Nueva Alta 484 still answers to an old job. Tambo del Arriero is a seventeenth-century casona that began as a tambo, a halt where muleteers watered animals on the Andean roads, restored by a Cusco family of historians and archaeologists. Eighteen rooms open off the original patio. The family suite keeps high ceilings and doors onto that courtyard, plus a loft sitting room. The Plaza de Armas is five blocks away, through the historic center.

About Tambo del Arriero Hotel Boutique

History

Tambo del Arriero occupies a colonial casona at Calle Nueva Alta 484 in Cusco's historic center, five blocks from the Plaza de Armas. The owners, a Cusco family of historians, archaeologists, and teachers, say historical and archaeological research shows the house began as a tambo for arrieros, the muleteers who rested, unloaded goods, and watered animals on the Andean roads. They restored it in the spirit of its seventeenth-century architecture and opened 18 rooms, including a family suite with high ceilings, courtyard doors, and a loft sitting room.
