The only hotel adjacent to Machu Picchu, with magnificent orchid gardens and excellent excursions, few ever forget the unearthly peace that descends when the day's visitors have left the fabled ancient site.

And thanks to the hotel's unparalleled access giving hotel guests the opportunity to visit the mystifying Inca citadel before and after the tour groups arrive and leave, it's all yours. Watch the sunrise over the ruins, take breakfast with Huayna Picchu as your backdrop, or surrender to an Andean spa treatment and a coca leaf ceremony with a local shaman. At Tinkuy Restaurant, Andean and international flavours combine in a setting worthy of the surroundings; while Tampu Restaurant and Bar is perfect for something more relaxed after a day of exploration.
