The 19% tax is only for Peruvian natives and visitors who spend more than 60 consecutive days in Peru. The 10% charge is a country-wide hotel service charge.

I had difficulty booking with cash and points, but thought that it was because I did it mid-May, when the hotel first became available on SPG.com. I had to call in and the CSR contacted the hotel directly to get the rate and make the booking.
