Featuring a sun terrace, this property is located a short distance from Wanchaq Train station, Hatun Rumiyoc and Religious Art Museum. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a concierge service and free WiFi throughout the property. Beautiful views and lots of options to do my morning practice; I enjoyed the deck as the sun is coming over the hills.

At the hostel, all rooms include a desk. Featuring a private bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer, rooms at KOSKO Casa Hotel also have free WiFi, while certain rooms also offer a balcony. All guest rooms feature a wardrobe. Hosts: The hotel is beautiful but the real highlights are Gelga and Romulo. I have never met hosts as hospitable, warm, and generous as they were. They went above and beyond to make sure I have a wonderful stay. Romulo and Gelga even help guests book and arrange the tours they want to do. They also provide warm compress every night, which is especially great during winter. Room and Facilities: The room and facilities were always kept clean and pristine. Laundry service is also available. Breakfast: Loved the breakfast!! Gelga and Romulo always made sure we had enough food and they always blended fruits in the morning to make us fresh and organic juice. Location: The hotel is 30 minutes away from the city center by taxi. The surrounding nature, however, makes up for the distance. It's right beside Templo de la Luna and a huge, huge, huge national park that you can explore freely. You can even go horseback riding if you want to. And Romulo can hike with you and give you a tour of the park and talk about its history. Pets: They have 2 dogs, Lupo and Sophie, and 1 cat, Whiskey - all of whom are well trained and very sweet. Overall, this is by far the best hotel I have ever stayed in - - it's a place where you know and feel that the hosts truly care about you. You will not regret staying here. ❤️

Situated 36 km from Huayna Picchu, Salkantay Hostel Chaullay offers 3-star accommodation in Santa Teresa and has a garden, a restaurant and a bar. The property is non-smoking and is set 38 km from Machu Picchu Historic Sanctuary. Beautifully built property by Manuel and his friend. Best room on the trek. Manuel cooked a beautiful meal for us and we had a wonderful time at dinner hearing his story. This is really what makes trekking so special in Peru, connecting with the locals and hearing their amazing stories.

Boasting a garden, shared lounge, terrace and free WiFi, Hospedaje K'uchuwasi is situated in Ollantaytambo, 19 km from Bus Station and 19 km from Main Square. Located around 19 km from Saint Peter Church, the hostel is also 21 km away from Nogalpampa Stadium. The property is non-smoking and is located 19 km from Sir Torrechayoc Church. My favourite place that we stayed in Peru. A lovely family with a guinea pig house (we also tasted guinea pig for the first time here). You can't drive down the old inca streets so pack light! From the breakfast space you could see two lots of ruins 😍
