"We had a great time, the hotel is very close to everything but without all the noise of the main streets. Clean, beautiful and the staff is very helpful. "
"The Sanctuary Lodge is a gem in the entrance of Machu Picchu. Every staff member we met was exceptionally warm, treating us like their family. We were especially impressed by Juan Manuel, Wilmar, Alexander, and Zaraí. Additionally, incredible demonstrations of Peruvian culture by Karen and Gabriel. We really felt taken care of here. Not only was the attention by staff excellent, but the space is beautiful with an incredible garden, lovely rooms, and the food was unbelievable (notable mention to...
"The staff here were incredibly friendly and helpful! The room was spacious and had complimentary tea & bottled water when we arrived. The breakfast was adequate, the balcony was lovely & the beds were comfortable! Location was perfect, just a short uphill walk to get to the train/bus station and main square! Would absolutely recommend this little B&B. "
"Friendly staff and the hotel is in an excellent location with shopping and dining options nearby. The staff met us at the train station to walk us to our hotel."
"I came to Hacienda Roman knowing that in this part of Peru, you can't expect all the amenities like WiFi, cable TV, etc. If you go in with reasonable expectations, you'll be happy with this hotel.
The pros: Staff are quite nice. Food is tasty and available fresh on site. Personal attention, especially the tour of the coffee/jungle out back, is phenomenal. The entire stay was worth it just for this!!
The cons: Cooking is unbelievably slow; it took us no less than 1.5 hours to finish a meal...
"It was an amazing stay at Casa Del sol. We enjoyed the Pisco sour class, massages and, our room was facing the river view and it was the most beautiful view to wake up to as well. A very unique location for this hotel and would definitely book another stay with them again."

Mist-shrouded stone terraces reveal themselves best when you arrive for sunrise, before the crowds fill ancient pathways. Hire a local guide at the entrance who'll explain how Incan engineers built a city that still channels water after 500 years.
We took the train to Aguas Calientes and bus up to Machu Picchu. Be sure to get tickets well in advance. We enjoyed Circuit 4 which brought us into the ruins with an amazing English-speaking guide. Fantastic trip of a lifetime. Not over-rated.

Either hire a guide company or be sure to book your circuits in advance. The mountain is sectioned off. Definitely stay the night, and do opposite circuits if you can, the train ride is long and the city is fun and safe.

Went up for 0600 entry in the rain, the whole site was misty and mysterious. Early enough to see the sundial. Mist shifted around providing amazing views of the site.

Machu Picchu is not a wonder of the modern world without reason. The place has a unique atmosphere. Do not save money on a guide, they bring you to the Inkas history and complete the tour.

Make sure that you purchase entrance and bus tickets ahead of time for Machu Picchu. Circuit 2 ticket is best.

Improving the process for ticketing for both the park and the bus would make it even better. Offering different attractions in Machu Picchu Pueblo would attract tourists to stay longer, reenactments, cultural dinner shows, etc.

We came to Aguascalientes the afternoon before our MP visit. If we had it to do over, we'd probably spend two days in Aguascalientes around our MP time to make it less hectic.

I was lucky and got a second ticket to visit the sanctuary. They always have a few for visitors who didn't buy in advance. And having no car traffic was so relaxing.

One night is plenty. Town is very small. Lots of restaurants and very friendly locals

However no free drink was offered unless we ate in the hotel which is different to everywhere we have stayed"
