For Jaume Tàpies, International President of Relais & Châteaux, “The admission of 6 new prestigious properties to the Relais & Châteaux family from 1 January 2010 testifies to our international presence. The Relais & Châteaux brand is clearly identifiable beyond the borders of Europe and is henceforth represented in Peru, an exceptional destination that is not very well known at the present time amongst the public at large.”
