Founded in 1540 and known as “The White City”, this neocolonial city of volcanic stone lies 2,380 meters above sea level in a fertile valley, surrounded by the desert between the Andes and the Pacific coast. Located in the heart of Selva Alegre, Costa del Sol Wyndham Arequipa is the only five-star hotel in the city. Its 26,000 square meters are surrounded by extensive gardens and its privileged location offers visitors a spectacular view of the three volcanoes that dominate the urban landscape of the city.
