Off the beaten track, next to railroad tracks

Owner was very informative with town, gave us good advice on restaurants and tips on proper etiquette in Machu Picchu. Don't go to hot springs they are filthy! Listen to what owner says and make sure restaurants don't sock you with a town tax, arbitrary.

Uma má experiência

Hotel localizado de frente para a linha de trem, o que ocasionou um barulho infernal durante a madrugada e logo cedo pela manhã. O quarto em que ficamos, embora simples, aparentemente havia sido reformado recentemente (cama confortável, aparelho de TV moderno), mas o banheiro exalava um leve cheiro desagradável de esgoto, certamente resultado de trabalhos mal feitos no encanamento. Café da manhã pobre. Relação custo-benefício muito ruim.

Nice place

Front counter was helpful and let us keep our baggage there for a few hours extra until our train arrived. Average breakfast, price was good with a mountain view and comfortable beds, noise wasn't too bad either. Overall pretty good.

Atendimento nota 10

O Hotel é bem simples, mas o quarto bem confortável, limpo e espaçoso. O diferencial neste hotel é o atendimento. O senhor dono do hotel é muito atencioso, foi nos buscar na estação, incansável e prestar toas as informações sobre o local, deu dicas valiosas. Como no outro dia tínhamos que madrugar para ir a MachuPicchu, nos deixou um box lunch para levar, muito farto e gostoso. Super recomendo!

Hôtel Pas fiable, sur réservation!

Malheureusement nous n'avons pas séjourné dans l'hôtel choisi et réservé car il ne restait qu'une seule chambre de disponible sur les deux réservés. L'hôtel avait sur réservé! Il nous ont relocalisé dans un autre endroit de qualité moindre et bruyant.

Se contactaron conmigo para esperarme en la estación de tren, lo cual aprecio mucho pues te ahorra tiempo en buscar la dirección. Se localizan justo al lado de las vías si piensan madrugar para escalar Machu Picchu es un buen despertador pues los trabajos en las vías comienzan a las 5 am. Buen lugar para quedarse una sola noche. El cubo de la regadera del baño tenía algo de moho el resto estaba limpio y cómodo.

Reasonable hotel but too noisy

Booked this hotel as it advertised a room with a river/mountain view. It didn't mention however that the railway line was right outside the hotel. It was impossible to sleep once workmen started working on the railway outside banging around from 1am onwards especially due to the balcony door that wouldn't close. No sound insulation from the balcony doors either. If you're a deep sleeper and not woken easily it would be fine and a reasonable location. If not, I'd look elsewhere...

I was sent to Hatun Samay Hotel, very bad hotel.

1) For one occasion (the only time I needed shower) I had no hot water for shower. My daughter complained it switched from very hot to freezing cold and then switched back to very hot after 10 seconds. I considered the shower doesn't work at all. At the end we didn't take shower. Just use water to wipe my body. 2) The window is facing a wall that is 10 cm away. No view 3) The room is so small that barely can fit for 2 single beds 4) Wi-fi absolutely does not work in the room. My room chair was placed in the hall way. I figured the previous guests put it there to access internet because wi-fi is never not working in the room 5) Wi-fi only works 70% of the time. I have to agree with other guests' review. 6) Wi-fi doesn't work in the lobby. I only see "obtaining IP address".

Great service and location.

The room was verge, expensive, but that's probably the price for being so close to the station and main market. The location was excellent, few mins from the station and main bus stop. The reception service was excellent, they went out of their way to help us. Very happy and satisfied with the experience.

Excellent experience

Great hotel if you bring some earplugs with you (which, in my opinion, every traveller should). We did not experience any of the "wet bathroom" conditions found in other reviews. Everything was extremely clean and comfortable. The owner is a really nice guy who was immensely helpful. Location is superb (3 mins to train station and 5 mins to bus station). If you're leaving early in the morning like most people, you can take your free breakfast with you "to go"

Nice staff, but hotel needs better amenities

More hostal than hotel but the staff is very pleasant and helpful. Rooms and lobby need more electric outlets, beds need updating and toiletries need improvement such as providing hair conditioner and body lotion. Wifi only works temporary and not in rooms at all. The breakfast was excellent and ready at 3:30am which was a nice touch.

Ficamos 3 noites neste hotel, em Águas Calientes. Hotel pqueno com 6 apartamentos. A cama super confortável, tudo novinho, o atendimento excelente. A única coisa negativa é a falta de elevador, mas creio que muitos outros na cidade Não possue. Fica localizado em frente a estação d etrem, mesmo assim o barulho não incomodou.

Bien ubicado

En general es un buen hotel, buena relación de precio, está bien ubicado, limpio, cómodo. Al estar frente a la estación de trenes hay ruido, sin embargo, creo que para ser un hotel de una noche (previa a Machupicchu) cumple con todo lo necesario.
