Independent Report
locationSituated in the heart of the Sacred Valley just one kilometre from Urubamba. It is about forty five minutes by car from Cusco and being one thousand metres lower in altitude, the climate is more agreeable. It is an ideal place to get used to the altitude and a convenient base for visiting the villages of Pisac, Ollantaytambo and other nearby archaeological and cultural place of interest. There are views on both sides of the surrounding hills and it is situated close to the river.
roomsAll the rooms are detached circular bungalows. The majority of these are on one floor and are medium in size with white washed walls and dark wood furnishings throughout with two small stained glass windows. All are in very good condition as are the bathrooms. All the furnishings, from the wood tiling to the lamps to the side of the beds are from the Urubamba region. The remaining rooms, roughly thirty per cent of the hotel, differ in that they have a wooden spiral staircase leading up to another bedroom. All furnishings are exactly the same as the other rooms.
restaurantThe circular restaurant is on two floors with the bar area upstairs. It is traditional Peruvian throughout with a large terracotta open fireplace , dark wood furnishings and terracotta stone walls. Local and international cuisine is served and in the summer months the outdoor terrace restaurant is often used.
exteriorThe hotel is formed by the main terracotta coloured block which contains the reception and restaurant area with all the rooms being yellow stone detached bungalows with brick coloured tiled roofing. All the bungalows are linked by paved passages through the gardens.
lobbyThe lobby is small and modern in decor.
generalAn exceptional superior tourist product throughout. 11/05 MQ
