El Retablo, a two-story, 17-room bed & breakfast that celebrates the cultural heritage of Cusco, Peru, opened last month. Mountain Lodges of Peru converted the historic building, located three blocks from the city’s Plaza de Armas.
The hotel blends contemporary touches with customs of Peruvian artisans, taking inspiration from retables, a form of Andean folk art with three-dimensional figurines in vibrantly colored portable boxes.
