In general, the Taypikala hotel was good, there were only two details that particularly caught my attention: 1.- The absence of a soap disk in the bathroom. 2.- And the most important, the 6 days we were staying we had problems with the Internet connection, it became super slow or fell down especially at night. We were able to extend our stay 2 more days, thanks to the reservation staff.

the so called 4-star hotel has very small washroom, water temperature hard to control. They declined our request to upgrade the room and told us that there is no shuttle to airport which written in expedia website. the hotel locates at a single lane and it is very difficult for Uber to leave hotel.

The staff was FANTASTIC! There was always someone at the lobby, 24/7 and everyone was always smiling and willing to help. The rooms were clean, the beds were cozy and warm (with an extra blanket!), the wifi was quite good, although there were moments it wasn’t loading. The hotel was very well located! It was near the main square and many restaurants. The breakfast was quite complete, I just wish there had been a few more gluten free options, but there were a few good options to pick from:) Also the staff packed us a breakfast for when our excursion left at 4am, which was so kind of them! I unfortunately suffered from altitude sickness and the staff was very understanding and helpful, they instantly called over a doctor and when I was sick again the next day, they provided an oxygen tank. I am really appreciative of their help and kindness:) Overall, the staff is what makes Taypikala so wonderful:)

My stay exceeded expectations. Pros: Heater and heavy blanket in room, great shower pressure with hot water, filtered water station, coco tea immediately available, saw people getting supplemental O2, decent breakfast - scrambled eggs, omelette station, orange juice was amazing, will make a small lunch bag if you miss breakfast Cons: It’s an older building and the eggs were sometimes runny - that’s literally my only complaint Middle of the their winter and I was as comfortable as I could be. Would 100% stay here again.

Lobby is nice but rooms are very dated and the whole place has fluorescent lighting and needs some upkeep. There is a restaurant but it is pretty average and breakfast is a lot of packaged items.

I got a great price on the room and got what I paid for. The hotel is nice, but outdated and lacks added touches that make a stay nice, like mate in the lobby, a server welcoming people coming to breakfast. I didn’t know there was an omelette bar until after I ate the overcooked scrambled eggs. I would stay here again for the price and the location, but would lower my expectations on the additional touches and updated interior.

We had a great stay! We stayed here for three nights before heading out on the Inca trail. It was the perfect location for exploring the historic district and the onsite restaurant was an easy option when we had a 4:00 am wake up call. They even packed us a breakfast. My only complaint is that the hot water wasn’t that hot in the shower. Would stay again!
