Among the facilities the hotel has to offer is the restaurant El Huerto and its traditional Peruvian cuisine and the bar located just 10 meters away from the river.
The hotel has eleven deluxe and ten junior suites plus two 250 sqm villas, constructed from natural stone and woods such as eucalyptus and cedar, with marble and onyx bathrooms and flagstone terraces. With a certain Incan flair, the rooms offer all the comfort of contemporary accommodation: heated wooden floors, large windows in the bathrooms with views over the river and beds positioned so the guests wake up to the view and the soothing sound of the Urubamba.

The Sacred Valley, located between Cuzco and Machu Picchu, is a popular part of holiday itineraries in Peru. Green and fertile, the valley is an important agricultural area, seen from its high towns as a patchwork of fields and Inca terraces. Attractions include the famous Sunday Pisac craft and produce market, Chinchero, according to legend the birthplace of the rainbow, as well as important Inca ruins at Ollantaytambo.
PeruRail stops regularly at Ollantaytambo station, as well as Cuzco and Aguas Calientes (the station for Machu Picchu), allowing guests to travel between the Company’s hotels in style, while offering fantastic views of the valley and the Andes.
