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.

Nice stay in a quiet setting

We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Samanapaq. It was located in a quiet area but only a two minute walk to the main square. Our room had everything we needed and the breakfast was fine. There was a large common area outside of our room where we could relax with more space. The best part was the kind owner who gave us great restaurant and hiking suggestions and was very helpful in general. We were very satisfied with our experience!

One of our favorite hotels to-date. A MUST stay!

Wow. Hotel Samanapaq is an oasis in Ollantaytambo that I will recommend to anyone!!! Tula and the staff are incredible welcoming, helpful, attentive and warm. They are proud to welcome you to Peru/Ollantaytambo, and it shows. The hotel’s location is ideal - a short <5 minute walk to the center. The breakfast is beautiful and delicious, the hotel decor is stunning and tasteful, rooms are very comfortable (beds too!), and the property is spacious, lush, and beautiful. Our young children loved exploring the premises while we enjoyed our morning coffee. The Tula and staff are willing to help with anything and are well connected throughout the community - from laundry, to taxis, to activities. HIGHLY recommend … we are so sad to have to leave!

This place is like walking into the garden of eden, with gorgeous gardens looking out to stunning views of the Andes. It is only a couple blocks from the main square, which makes it ideal for shopping and sightseeing, super-comfortable rooms with beautiful showers/bathrooms, and an included breakfast that cant be beat. The owner can point you towards anything you might need/want, and if you're looking for a reprieve from the noise and hustle of the 'normal' Peru, this is the oasis you are looking for.
