What is the most expensive luxury hotel in Peru?
Belmond Hotel Rio Sagrado in Urubamba tops out at $3,945 per night. It's the Sacred Valley's most service-driven luxury option, with extraordinary staff and a riverside setting that redeem rooms and pricing that can give pause. Worth the splurge for a two-to-three-night stay built around Machu Picchu, but less compelling as a week-long base given repetitive dining and aggressive extras. Book a junior suite rather than a standard room.
When is the best time to visit luxury hotels in Peru?
January is the cheapest month to book luxury hotels in Peru, falling in the Andean wet season when rain is frequent in Cusco, the Sacred Valley, and Colca Canyon, and the Inca Trail closes in February.

April, October, and November offer the best balance of reasonable prices and manageable weather.
