    The fine print
    Must-know information for guests at this property

    Based on local tax laws, Peruvian citizens (and foreigners staying more than 59 days in Peru) must pay an additional fee of 18%. To be exempt from this 18% additional fee (IVA), a copy of the immigration card and passport must be presented.

    Please note both documents are required for fee exemption. Guests who are not able to present both documents will be required to pay the fee.

    Foreign business travelers who require a printed invoice, will also be charged the additional 18% regardless of the length of their stay in Peru. This fee is not automatically calculated in the total costs for the reservation.

    This property does not accommodate bachelor(ette) or similar parties.

    Quiet hours are between 20:00:00 and 07:00:00.
