Overview

The Hotel de Turistas del Cusco, popularly known as El Cuadro, is a former hotel building in the historic centre of Cusco, Peru. It is currently unused due to litigation between its owner, the Sociedad de Beneficencia Pública del Cusco, and the company that held the hotel's concession. The present building was completed in 1944 on the same plot where the first mint of Cusco was built in the late 17th century by order of Charles II of Spain.
