    The bathroom was a bit spartan, but more than acceptable.

    The hotel seem to be a time warp of the sort. I felt like I stepped into a past century and I loved that. Also, the garden was so beautifully designed with so many beautiful plants and flowers. Breakfast was superior and offered the best coffee I have had in all of PERU.

    Absolutely nothing.

    The property is located inside the train station. Despite some noise, it's a very beautiful and accessible place, especially for those going to Machu Picchu by train. The hotel has a very good and beautiful restaurant, as well as an organic garden, a coffee roasting tour, and an Andean distillery. The decoration is impeccable, and the rooms are extremely comfortable. The village experienced a power outage, and the hotel had a generator for essential functions (such as gas heating), which was very convenient. We needed to leave our luggage at the hotel for an extra day beyond our stay, and the staff was very kind to us, allowing us to use the locker.

    Great Value in Ollantaytambo. The location is next to none if you are taking the train to Machu Pichu but aside from this the Hotel is a gem on its own. You can’t really appreciate how big it is from the outside with beautiful gardens and even an orchard.

    Oh my - this place was a dream for me. Warm reception after a challenging, nighttime journey to get there; a room that was so pleasing I could live there for a month; excellent restaurant. The property includes a small organic farm, a school, a coffee roaster, and a distillery. Heaven, right? It is next to the train tracks that are ferrying people to and from Machu Picchu but the rooms are set back in several buildings amidst lovely gardens and I had no problem with any train noise. I had the Pachamanca lunch (food cooked on hot stones buried in a pit) that included the coffee roastery, distillery and farm tour. Well worth the cost. I came here directly from my flight to Cusco (as El Albergue in Ollantaytambo is at a lower elevation) and stayed here 3 nights, going to Machu Picchu the second day. Ollantaytambo itself is an Incan town with cobbled streets and lots of stonework from Incan times.

    The train was a little loud but the morning music was magical and a wonderful way to start the day.

    The breakfast was excellent with many choices. I loved being about to order a cappuccino. The vegetables were so tasty and from their organic garden.
