Tierra Viva Arequipa Plaza

At Tierra Viva Arequipa you will be a short walk away from some of Arequipa’s iconic attractions. Spanish conquistadors founded the city of Arequipa in 1540, and they left incredible architecture behind.

In Arequipa’s colonial district you can see colonial architecture built using a local white stone called sillar. Some of the most interesting buildings surround the city’s central Plaza de Armas. There you’ll see the baroque Iglesia de la Compañía and its incredible gold-leaf altar. You can also visit the enormous Arequipa Cathedral, which has been rebuilt many times. Nearby you can also see the Santo Domingo Church, and the Santa Catalina Monastery. Visitors to Arequipa should also make time to leave the city and visit the Colca Canyon. This canyon has a rushing river that is ideal for rafting.

You can access free Wi-Fi from the lobby as well as your room. Hot coffee and tea are served in the lobby all day. There is also patio furniture on the terrace, in case you want to socialize in the fresh air. If you need a computer or simply a quiet area to read, head to the business center. This center also provides computers, a printer, and a 50-inch flat-screen LCD TV.

You’ll keep cozy in your heated room. All of the rooms come with private bathrooms that are equipped with hair dryers. Accommodations are neat and tidy, with soft carpets. Rooms also have their own desks with comfortable chairs. Each room comes with LCD cable TV and a phone that can make international calls.

The hotel provides laundry service. You can use your room’s safety deposit box to keep your belongings safe. Because Arequipa is at such a high elevation, the hotel can offer guests oxygen masks in case of altitude sickness.

Breakfast is included during your stay. There is a breakfast room that has a full buffet with hot and cold breakfast dishes, served buffet style. The communal areas in Tierra Viva Arequipa Plaza are decorated with original art.
