Food and Beverage Options

Qespi Restaurant serves Peruvian fine dining and requires reservations, and Qespi Bar is known for its pisco sour and local-herb cocktails.

Food and Beverage Options

Sheraton Lima Restaurant is currently operating on the second floor while the restaurant undergoes renovation, though breakfast here is chaotic. Platinum Elite members and above can select daily breakfast as the welcome gift or use club lounge access instead.

Why Stay at Sheraton Lima?

This is the best value luxury Bonvoy stay in Peru, with rates starting at 16,500 points and under $80 in cash per night. It suits travelers who want to explore downtown Lima rather than Miraflores.

Tambo del Inka, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Valle Sagrado, Review

Rooms

Why Stay at Westin Lima?

This is Peru’s best wellness and business-focused hotel, and it holds LEED O+M certification as Latin America’s most sustainable property. It also works well for anyone attending events at the on-site convention center.

Final Thoughts

There is no single best Marriott in Peru because the right choice depends on the destination and what you need from the trip. Tambo del Inka wins for Machu Picchu, Westin for wellness, Hotel Paracas for a coastal escape, and Sheraton or Humano for the strongest value in Lima. Book with Bonvoy points where the math works, since redemptions at Sheraton, Humano, and Tambo del Inka deliver the most value across the portfolio.
