Make the Most of Your Arequipa Stay

Cultural heritage and volcanic architecture

Arequipa, known as La Ciudad Blanca, distinguishes itself through luminous buildings carved from sillar, a white volcanic stone quarried from the surrounding peaks. The historic center earned UNESCO World Heritage status for its distinctive architectural fusion of Spanish Baroque and indigenous earthquake-resistant techniques. The sprawling Santa Catalina Monastery functions as a city within the city, its cobblestone streets and vibrant terracotta walls offering an intimate glimpse into colonial religious life, while the massive Cathedral anchors the Plaza de Armas.

Elevated dining and modern districts

The culinary scene has evolved beyond traditional picanterías to include sophisticated restaurants like Chicha, where chef Gastón Acurio reimagines regional dishes, and Zig Zag, featuring Alpandina cuisine beneath a staircase designed by Gustave Eiffel. Business travelers gravitate toward Cayma, the modern financial district with premium hotels, while Yanahuara offers quieter accommodations with volcano views and authentic neighborhood restaurants.

Gateway to dramatic landscapes

The city serves as base for exploring Colca Canyon, one of the world's deepest gorges where Andean condors soar above ancient terraces. Most visitors exploring beyond Arequipa join guided tours to the Salinas salt flats or Ruta del Sillar quarries. Members can use miles to secure accommodations in the historic center or upscale Cayma district.
