El Albergue Ollantaytambo

Location is a bit far from center of town, but that may be a good thing (just a bit uphill going in). Super cute and rustic property. Incredibly accommodating staff, truly treat you like guests. Would def stay here again!

Right within the station itself, this hotel is a unique, relaxing experience with natural and organic produce. Highly recommended for a pit stop to or from aquas calientes.

A truly beautiful place to stay, where we would have loved to stay longer. Unfortunately, we were only there for one night, but it's well worth staying two or three. You can linger in the space and even catch glimpses of the Sun Temple from the accommodation. They grow vegetables, you can sample local schnapps, and much more. Even though it's right next to the train station, it's not noisy. If I'm ever in the area again, I'll definitely stay there again.

I expected it to be better for the price. The noise from the train is a real problem because it's constant, and it even makes the bed shake when the train approaches. The breakfast is okay, nothing special.

We had an incredible stay at El Albergue. Wonderful location, and the sustainable farm to table aspect of their property was a real treat. Maria at the front desk was an absolutely wonderful person to start us off on our adventure. She gave us service with a smile and made us feel so important!! She is such a special person. Try the panchamanca lunch, that is definitely one of the highlights of our adventure so far !!

This hotel is amazing! Top-notch service, excellent food, comfortable rooms! I highly recommend it!

Spectacular! The rooms, the service, and the restaurant food were all excellent (Luis Miguel served us, and his suggestions couldn't have been better). I would return any day. And I would definitely recommend it.

The Location is perfect if you want to take the train to Agua Calientes and also walking close to the Ollantayambo village As the Hotel is located inside the train station ask for a room quiet ( our first night was too close to the rail and the oil smell was very very strong For this hotel you need to reserve a superior room not a standard and be sure that the room is located in the new building not in the original ) The superior room are a good size and good bathroom Beautiful garden in the property with many tropical plants and flowers The front desk os very professional and helpful Breakfast is good with lot of options Dinner is a good experience and price are reasonable We enyojed our stay

Simply beautiful and elegant hotel with wonderful gardens and farm, set within the most beautiful historic town in the Valle Sagrado. Fell in love from the moment I stepped in. Don’t miss this if you are visiting the area.

The best thing of this place is the location to the train to Machu Picchu, its like in your backyard, you step out of the hotel, there you are on the platform of the train. The room has 3 twin side beds however we just two person. It looks antique, there however was a big fly landed on the post of the bed, I was not able to catch it with the notes book there. however it did not make more sound during the night. while its so close to the train, it can bother you as well, since the train made sound well into midnight. We had dinner in the restaurant of the hotel, it was not good, the fish is dry, the meat was not good either, we were just too tired to go out. We missed breakfast since we need to catch the earlier train, the front dest said we with get sandwitch and coffee, but there was not coffee at all. I wish people do what they said.

This really is a very nice and special special place, in the old railway building right on the platform of the trains to Machu Picchu. Outside of the high season, the hotel will make a point of not putting guests in the rooms next to the trains. The garden rooms are absolutely lovely and finished to a high standard. Most are little bungalows with one ground floor and one top floor. We were there in November, low season. The reception is also Vernice, especially Luis at the front desk. Good breakfast too. The restaurant is not really so super, especially compared to other restaurants we ate at in Peru. They also offer a “Pacha Mama” meal in the garden, which is sort of a BBQ with hot stones underground. Nice enough, but quite expensive for what it is. It also includes a visit to the very small coffee roasting and distillery operations, which is of little interest. Neither was operational at the time although staff said they were but when I came back the next morning to check there was no sign of activity. There is a great garden in the back, and school for local kids. Owner Wendy has created a very special place here, hopefully her kids will maintain the tradition.

El Albergue delivered at a high level! Everything was above expectations! The service is great, the food is fantastic (don't miss the restaurant food!), the courtyard is like a quiet green oasis. We are traveling with a 4 year old who was very happy to see all the trains passing right outside the window when we had breakfast & dinner. Playground, pigs, guinea pigs are behind the hotel. We were able to exchange from USD to Sol at the hotel. A few small ants in the bathroom & gnats in the bedroom, otherwise great! We chose a room with a window facing the courtyard so we could sleep safely without being disturbed by passing trains. Lovely view of mountain peaks. Recommend staying on the second floor as we did. There are chairs outside the room.

Staying at the El Albergue in Ollantaytambo was an amazing experience! We felt so lucky to find this gem. It is such a charming property with an ideal location (attached to the train station, along the tracks, very unique and special)! Close enough to town for an easy walk, but at the same time separate enough to feel like you are in your own oasis that El Albergue exudes. It offers excellent food, an attentive and friendly staff, and an absolutely beautiful environment. The rooms are set around an exquisite garden, beautifully appointed, including some original artwork created by the owner. Plus, the property owns their own organic farm, coffee roasting facilities and distillery, adjacent to the hotel. All of which supply provisions to their restaurants; including the main dining room, the cafe which opens to the train platform, and the amazing Pachamanca feast offered near the farm if you are able to participate in during your time there. We had an absolutely wonderful time staying here, and if we find ourselves lucky enough to travel back to Peru, this will be on the top of our list to visit again.
