Friendly staff and great location. Well situated just a few blocks from the central square of Plaza de las Armas, this hotel was previously a family home. The owners then built additional guest houses, a cafe, the breakfast room on the property. There is a tranquil well manicured garden to hang out on nice days, a few cats, and a dog. If the owner is there, she is very personable and will help with any questions or contacting local drivers / tour operators for last minute needs. It was clean and reasonably priced. Just take note if you travel in winter and are used to central heating it will be chilly as there is only space heaters provided and you need to traverse across the courtyard to the different communal buildings. I absolutely loved this charming hotel and highly recommend it to anyone visiting.

Must be best hotel in Ollantaytambo

Wonderful hotel. Large property right in this busy little town. But it has wall around it enclosing a beautiful property so you don't even feel like you are in town. Yet you walk the door and walk around town and even down to the train station if you like. Excellent breakfast. Fantastic service. Tula Gibaja, one of the Owners, was very helpful in directing us to hikes, sites to visit in the city and surrounding area, and places to go to. We highly recommend this hotel.

Exceptional hotel

I can’t say enough wonderful things about my experience at Hotel Samanapaq! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm smiles and exceptional hospitality that made me feel right at home. The lush, tranquil gardens surrounding the property were an oasis of serenity—a perfect escape after exploring the magical streets of Ollantaytambo. The rooms were immaculately clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated, blending modern comforts with traditional charm. The bed was so comfortable that I slept better than I have in years! The complimentary breakfast was a delightful spread of fresh, local ingredients—each bite a delicious start to the day. The hotel’s location couldn’t be more perfect! It’s just a short walk to the town center, yet it feels tucked away in its own peaceful world. The staff went above and beyond, offering fantastic tips for exploring the area and making sure every detail of my stay was perfect. If you’re visiting the Sacred Valley, staying at Hotel Samanapaq is an absolute must. It’s not just a hotel; it’s an experience I will cherish forever. I can’t wait to return!

Great little hotel. Excellent breakfast! Really cool common space and gardens. Luggage storage was perfect for Inca trail. Drop off and pick-up can be challenging on skinny Old Inca streets. 5 minute walk to Central Plaza.
