El Abuelo is the Huascarán of Cordillera accommodations, towering over all opposition. The design features are impeccable, melding Inca-style trapezoidal windows with minimalist rooms to provide an open and comfortable accommodation space, replete with lemon trees, a produce garden, a fine restaurant and – pride of place – a 3D model of the Cordillera.
Owner Felipe Díaz is a talented cartographer who produces his own maps and guides of the Cordillera and other parts of Peru. Check them out, along with other local crafts, at the hotel's small, tasteful shop.
Hearty buffet breakfasts are laid on in the restaurant.
