Recommended rooftop bars in Arequipa

Trip Moment for Ariquepay Hotel shared by Travel Mentor Traveling-around-the-world
Posted 30 days ago, helping 39 travelers with their trips
The rooftop bar on the 4th floor of the Ariquepay Hotel Boutique is a hidden gem in the town center that can be enjoyed by non-guests without reservations. During the day, you can enjoy panoramic views of the blue sky and volcanoes, and at night, the illuminated cityscape is truly beautiful, offering a completely different atmosphere depending on the time of day. Sunset is especially recommended. From the bar, you can enjoy panoramic views of the town of Arequipa and the surrounding volcanoes, creating a fantastic sense of openness. Drinks are quite reasonably priced for a hotel rooftop, and cocktails are easily enjoyable. There is also a food menu and gourmet pizza, making it perfect for a light meal. Although the temperature drops at night, the staff thoughtfully lends blankets, which is a nice touch. The restrooms are clean, and the overall space is new and stylish. The hotel itself is a relatively new boutique hotel that opened in 2023, and its location in the historic district of #arequipa, just a 1-minute walk from Plaza de Armas, is also a major draw. This rooftop bar is recommended for a break during sightseeing or for relaxing while enjoying the night view.

Arequipa, Peru 🇵🇪🏔️

Arequipa, known as the “White City” (Ciudad Blanca), is one of Peru’s most beautiful destinations. Located at around 2,335 meters above sea level, the city is surrounded by dramatic volcanic landscapes, with the enormous Misti Volcano rising above the skyline.

🤍 Why is Arequipa called the White City?

Much of historic Arequipa was built using sillar, a pale volcanic stone formed from ancient volcanic activity. The stone gives the historic center its distinctive white and cream-colored appearance.

The city’s colonial architecture, ornate facades, arches and quiet courtyards make wandering through the old center particularly beautiful.

📍 Places you shouldn’t miss

🏛️ Plaza de Armas
The heart of the historic city, surrounded by elegant colonial buildings and the impressive Arequipa Cathedral.

⛪ Monastery of Santa Catalina
Perhaps Arequipa’s most famous attraction. This enormous 16th-century complex feels like a colorful city within the city, with narrow streets, courtyards and vividly painted walls.

🌋 Misti Volcano
The iconic cone-shaped volcano overlooking Arequipa. Its snowy or cloud-covered summit creates spectacular views from around the city.

🏔️ Colca Canyon
One of the region’s biggest attractions and among the world’s deepest canyons. It’s famous for dramatic viewpoints and sightings of Andean condors soaring above the canyon.

🦅 Cruz del Condor
A popular viewpoint in Colca Canyon where visitors can often watch condors flying through the immense valley.

🍲 Food

Arequipa is famous for its picanterías, traditional restaurants serving regional Peruvian dishes.

Try:

· 🌶️ Rocoto relleno
· 🥔 Chupe de camarones
· 🥘 Adobo arequipeño
· 🥔 Ocopa
· 🍲 Chairo

🌄 The atmosphere

Arequipa has a wonderful combination of colonial architecture, volcanic mountains, high-altitude landscapes and traditional Peruvian culture. The surrounding countryside becomes especially spectacular as you travel toward the Andes.

Arequipa is a city carved from volcanic stone, watched over by a volcano, and surrounded by some of Peru’s most extraordinary mountain landscapes. 🇵🇪✨
