Overview

The contemporary and stylish Hotel Libertador Arequipa is located in Selva Alegre Park, one of the greener areas of the city of Arequipa in Southern Peru. Recently refurbished, this appealing property serves as a great base for discovering the city and its surroundings, with many popular attractions within walking distance.

There are a total of 88 rooms, with several different categories to choose from, ranging from the standard Superior Room to the Libertador Suite which overlooks the hotel’s main entrance. All rooms are decorated in a sophisticated colonial style, featuring earthy tones and wooden furnishings to create a rustic, authentic feel. They come with amenities such as bathrobes and slippers, a minibar and an LCD TV, with complimentary drinking water provided.

The hotel’s restaurant, Los Robles, has an excellent reputation and is popular with visitors and locals alike. It offers sumptuous buffet breakfasts, as well as lunches and dinners featuring a broad range of Peruvian and international dishes. The restaurant is very eco-friendly and focuses on being as sustainable as possible, with staff growing much of the food themselves. There’s also a bar serving a wide variety of drinks, from local specialties to fresh juice cocktails and more.

The open-air pool is located within the hotel’s well manicured gardens, offering stunning mountain views along with a relaxing jacuzzi. There’s also a fully equipped gym and sauna, and massage treaments are available too. Youngsters will enjoy making use of the several outdoor play areas and will no doubt love getting to know the hotel’s two long-term animal residents; a delightful alpaca and a tortoise from the Galapagos Islands that’s over a century old.

There's plenty to see and do in and around Arequipa. Main attractions include the evocative Convento de Santa Catalina, the Sabandia Mill, and the Plaza de Armas. Excursions further afield to the Colca Canyon can be arranged, along with other cultural or adventurous pursuits.

Children are welcome, and although there are no designated child activities or babysitting services, the hotel has several outdoor areas where children are free to play and enjoy themselves. There are also plenty of activities suitable for all ages in Arequipa and beyond, making this a great choice for families.

  • I was also just about to email you to thank you and the team for arranging yet again, another wonderful experience.

    Mount Kenya was spectacular and wild - I think I prefer it to Kili in many ways. The entire support team was professional, friendly and all round fantastic in making sure that we were safe, well fed and well looked after. In particular, we would commend Peter the guide as well as Paul one of the porters who doubled-up as his deputy on summit day. Our route was often shrouded in mist and rain that rapidly gathered in the valleys and moorlands, and we were very impressed at how Peter managed to navigate us safely through all of that notwithstanding. In addition, we loved learning about the history of Mount Kenya from him in the evenings. And ofcourse, I was blown away by the lovely birthday surprise at the end complete with balloons and a delicious cake that had journeyed with us from day 1. One thing we might recommend because of the sudden change in weather (it would sometimes get extremely cold and wet) is for the equipment list to be a little bit more detailed in terms of its recommendations e.g. layers to be moisture-wicking, walking boots be waterproof, doubling up on socks to avoid blisters etc.

    El Karama is a beautiful conservancy and the lodge a true labour of love. Great hospitality in a relaxed environment. Delicious, fresh food. We enjoyed the drives, even if we didn't see much wildlife as the heavens opened on us for the last two outings. However, since it was very much geared towards families, I am not sure if I would stay again without kids. That said, I think it was perfect for a 3d/2n stay post mountain, and a much better choice than flying to the masai mara given the limited time we had.

    Our transits were smooth. Samuel the driver was always on time, drove safely and kept the vehicle clean.

    So it was a brilliant experience and one which I certainly will cherish for some time to come. It was great to work with you for a third time, and I certainly hope it won't be the last

  • Thank you, we had an absolute wonderful time, and everything was well-planned and as described. Carla was crying on the day of our departure from Ants Nest, she didn’t want to go home and for it all to end, and when I asked how much longer she would want to stay, she responded “four weeks”

  • We had the most amazing time. It exceeded all my hopes of what the trip would be. The guides, the hotels - everything was of such a wonderful quality. Thank you for organizing everything. I will absolutely recommend Tourdust and use you again.
