Palacio Royal Arequipa

Located in the ‘Southern Peru tourist corridor’ in the district of Arequipa (nicknamed the ‘white city’ due to the white stone architecture, a product of quarried volcanic rock) you can find Palacio Royal Arequipa. When not on the gaming floor take in what the area has to offer from the background volcanoes like El Misti, nearby palaces and Spanish colonial architectural buildings and historic attractions. The city also offers a healthy nightlife by way of bars and clubs and several restaurants for authentic South American cuisine.

Gaming

The casino has a very modest selection of games, with only 172 machines including video poker as well as an electronic roulette wheel. The casino is open 24 hours and what makes it stand out from among its competitors is their hourly prize giveaways. Think not of the casino as your full day of entertainment, but rather a nice time-out from your whirlwind day of shopping and sight-seeing. Come in to relax, possibly win a few bucks and take home a prize for bragging rights.

Hotel/Accommodations

There are no hotels on site but there is one a literal hop, skip and jump away. The Casona Plaza Hotel Arequipa is a 4 star establishment located in the heart of downtown. Rooms provide cable tv and free wi-fi with a Jacuzzi option. Order room service or visit their restaurant for breakfast or dinner. Additionally, visit the lounge to meet a few locals and sip on your favourite cocktail. Talk to a hotel clerk about arranging a trip to the Colca Canyon with such attractions as the Monasterio de Santa Catalina.

Dining

If not opting to take your meals at the hotel, wander around town in search of an eye-catching restaurant to sample some authentic Peruvian cuisine. Items of interest are river shrimp and alpaca steaks. Local venues include Ary Quepay, Zingaro, Tacos y Tequilas and Espressate, a coffee house ideal for homemade desserts.

Entertainment/Nightlife

Local bars include Senor Misti where you can enjoy a Pisco Sour (their national drink) or alternately wander around Calle Dolores, an area known for its bars, clubs and karaoke. Rub shoulders with the locals as they sing, dance and drink. The less adventurous can opt to enjoy a relaxing drink back at the hotel in the lounge.

Rewards/Deals

There are currently no player rewards in place however the casino does run hourly/daily draws. Talk to a host for details as well as about any current or upcoming promotions.
