Heritage architecture and tourism have a close relationship, due to the interest in its attractiveness. Since 2000, the increase in the tourist flow produced a demand for services (lodging, travel agencies, restaurants, etc.). Generating an increase in heritage interventions in the Historic Center of Cusco, transforming it into a tourist area of museums, restaurants, shops, recreation and lodging. These interventions are a challenge, for the adaptation of new uses in old buildings, as well as the construction of new contemporary buildings. Which are based on conservation strategies, so as not to alter the image of the Historic Center and generate the sustainability of existing typologies, therefore it is important to understand how interventions in heritage buildings act. Three five-star hotels located in the Historic Center of Cusco, the Belmond, Marriot and Sheraton hotels, are taken as a study, whose purpose is to define the processes that heritage faces in the 21st century. It is observed that the privatization of heritage buildings generates fragmentation and social exclusion, since interventions and appropriations of heritage expand to the public space to satisfy visitors. As well as, they implement restoration processes, to conserve existing elements in the building and establish a relationship of the new construction systems in front of the current building and generate a harmony between them, where the current case of the Sheraton Hotel continues to be so controversial, due to the fact of destroying the heritage that was in the place and building a new building that is not related to the environment. It is concluded that the intervention in the Historic Center is to seek a harmony between the pre-existing buildings and the new constructions, without neglecting the essence of the place. Where the new building generates a new relationship with the citizen and the visitor.
