    Quiet. Clean. Lovely garden area. Proximity to Citadel entrance. Excellent food. Attentive, responsive, friendly staff, without exception, starting from time of reservation and ending with luggage assistance at Aguas Calientes train station.

    Everything about this place was great. Beautiful location, staff was wonderful, food was delicious. The grounds were kept like a park.
  • Anna

    Amazing staff, location and though the rooms are small, they are well appointed. For the price I felt I’d surely be disappointed, but the property, staff and attention to a 5 star experience far exceeded my expectations!
