Spent a night here after the 4 Day Inka trail to give ourselves the opportunity to return to MP in the afternoon for sunset and again early next morning for sunrise. The room was excellent but the food and service were impeccable. Worth every penny especially with full boarding included. We enjoyed being pampered for a day at the end of the long hike.

Once in a lifetime experience!
Hands down the best way to do Machu Picchu. From John and Alex helping coordinate pickup and transportation to the lodge, to Orlando’s warm welcome at check-in, to Victor’s excellent service at the bar and restaurant, everyone at Sanctuary Lodge went above and beyond to provide unparalleled service. The views, property grounds, food and drinks, service and accommodations are all 5 stars. Access to the Bellond lounge at Aguas Caliente train station was also very useful after Machu Picchu trek and checking out. Overall it was worth every penny and a memorable experience to stay at Sanctuary Lodge!

Extremely wonderful stay
The Belmond Sanctuary Lodge at Machu Picchu was a superb and extraordinary hotel. The location near the entrance to the citadel makes this hotel so unique. The staff were extremely attentive and accommodating. They addressed us by our names and their kind and sincere interaction s with us made us feel like a part of the family.

Stay of a Lifetime
The most beautiful hotel you could ever imagine! There is no other setting like this in the world, so why would you stay anywhere else when you take a trip to Machu Picchu? The staff make every effort to make sure you are taken care of. They truly deliver first-class service at the Sanctuary Lodge. Bruno was such a pleasure to work with. The rooms are quite comfortable and the views from the hotel grounds are stunning. The food at the restaurant is fantastic. We loved that they had changing rooms for guests to take a shower and change clothes for the train even after checking out. I would recommend a stay here a thousand times over. This may be a once in a lifetime traveling experience, so making a reservation here is a must!

First of all this hotel was so bad that I did not even get to stay in it. I made reservations three months in advance and the last day before flying out to Peru I get a message that my reservation has been cancel. To this day I do not know what happen and why my reservation was cancel. No one was able to help me out and I ended up staying in a different hotel at no fault of mine. Bad service bad communication bad everything. Don’t book here they will cancel your res.

The hotel is right next to the entrance to Machu Picchu and the service is top notch. If requested they will meet you when you get off the train to collect your luggage and take you to the bus ride location. You will have to pre-pay for the bus ride but they do take care of everything else. The property grounds are very well thought out and taken care of. Take time to walk around their garden area. It is beautiful. The restaurant food is good but expensive. Service by all staff is the very best. Upon leaving they tag your luaggage and have it ready for you and meet you right before you board the train ride home. Our only miscommuncation is where exactly at the train station you get your luggage. No one at the train station knew anything. But dont worry because right before you are ready to step foot on that train a guy in the white shirt , from the Belmond, is right there with your luggage ready to it up those steps for you. So dont panic or waste your time going to look for him or your luggage and enjoy your time in Agua Caliente shopping or having lunch.
