We stayed here before hiking the Inca Trail. Simple, clean and efficient with excellent wifi and breakfasts. Hosts were very nice and a call to the hotel had them come to the main square to transport our luggage back to the inn. Situated in the heart of Ollanta, it was the perfect place to get out and explore the beautiful surroundings. We highly recommend!

Lovely quiet location with stunning views of the ruins. Easy walk to town centre. Beautiful private gardens where you can sit and relax, yoga or just take in the scenery. Nice rooms, great beds. Amazing breakfasts, kind hosts. Ended up staying 3 nights as we enjoyed ourselves so much.

This lodge is exactly like the photos. I never leave reviews, but this was hands down the best place we stayed in all of Peru on our 2 week trip. Not only is Ollantaytambo an idyllic town to stay, the people at the lodge are incredibly hospitable. They'll help you book a car for the day, or suggest nearby activities. The included breakfast is fresh and delicious, and the laundry service was also very helpful.

The Apu Lodge has a very authentic feel at the top of a pedestrian cobblestone alley in a quiet part of town. We were met at the town square with a luggage cart, and our suitcases were brought up for us. Thank goodness, the wheels might not survive the cobblestone Inca streets! The staff is delightful, and willing to help in any way. Suggestion: Be considerate and travel light in this country. Laundry service was available and dirt cheap for a great job. Breakfast was delicious and coffee ready early. Coca and Muna Tea and filtered water always available. Rooms were small but adequate for two people with luggage. We booked the family room on the second floor. It has four beds. The bathroom was small for four people, but we liked the roominess of the room. And it has a small balcony. …

Thanks for your stay and for your lovely review. I am so glad that you had a good stay and really enjoyed our breakfast and welcoming staff and our quiet location on an Inca street. Like you say we can help with luggage for free, even big cases, as we have a luggage cart. Our staff are always delighted to assist with whatever they can, from helping you find a local guide to suggesting self-guided hikes and local restaurants. We have water and teas available 24 hours, including coca, muña, chamomile, aniseed, black tea and usually lemongrass and black tea with cinnamon and clove. Our spacious, beautiful gardens are visited by hummingbirds and many other species and also have hammocks and other places to sit and relax. The family suite is very large with two balconies. The family rooms, which are also sold as triples as they have three beds (enough bed space for a family of four), are smaller. We suggested guests book directly with us on our own website for the best prices as booking websites charge us commission.

Apu Lodge is lovely. The rooms are bright, clean, airy and comfy with pretty views of the mountains and Incan monuments. The garden has flower beds, birds, fountains and hammocks. It’s a five minute walk up a narrow cobbled street from the plaza but the owners will help you with your luggage if you need it. Definitely recommend.

Thank you for your kind review of Apu Lodge. We are delighted that you enjoyed our comfy, clean rooms, beautiful views and gardens. Apu Lodge is built on a Inca terrace overlooking the town and we added an Inca-style fountain like the Baño de la Ñusta (Princess Fountain) in the Fortress of Ollantaytambo when we restored the water canal that irrigates our plants. As you say, we are a few minutes' walk from the Plaza de Armas (Main Square), up an Inca street lined by another small babbling canal, away from the bustle and noise of the main square but close enough for convenience and even closer to the ruins on Pinkuylluna, right behind Apu Lodge. Our staff are always happy to help with transporting luggage to and from the Plaza and with advice on restaurants, tours, walks, etc. Guests can get in touch with us or check our own website for the best prices, which include a full healthy breakfast and recently improved wifi.

I had a wonderful four-night stay at Apu Lodge. It was perfectly quiet and away from the main square, up a quaint cobblestone street. The room was cozy and had a beautiful view. The staff was so sweet and friendly. Easy to walk everywhere, including the train station to go to Machu Picchu. I would definitely come back!

This B&B is amazing! The staff is most hospitable. Breakfasts are delicious with a variety of foods with filtered water & hot tea all the time. Apu offers a washing machine and clothes line, help with coordinating transport to/from Cusco (drivers Edgar & Diomedis were great), recs on restaurants, and more. Our family of 3 had the perfect room & enjoyed the open air grounds & walks to/from town.

Thank you so much for your stay and great review. Like you say we have a laundry service for a very reasonable price and air dry all sheets and clothes outside in the hot Andean sunshine in our gardens. The lodge is 5 minutes' walk from the plaza up beautiful old Inca streets and we can help with suitcases to and from there. Guests can check out our own website for the best prices and more information.

We stayed about 4 days in the area with a lay long trip to Machu Picchu. The Lodge was very comfortable with a solid breakfast. WiFi was pretty much limited to the small reception area rather than the rooms, but that was not a problem for us. The rooms we clean and comfortable with good blankets on the beds to counter some chilly nights. The staff was very friendly and helpful in arranging some rides and trying to track down a lost piece of luggage in Lima. The sidewalk/alley to the lodge was unexpected initially, but it really just amounts to about a 5 minute cobblestone walk to the Plaza. The grounds were very nice and it all made for a very pleasant sty for our group of 3. Would welcome staying there again.

A great Eco lodge, a bit of a walk from the city center but you'll enjoy the walk as the streets are so beautiful. The lodge has great views and a backdrop of mountains on one side and ruins on the other side. The service was so good and were able to accommodate all our requests. The food and drinks were good. Trust and book, you will have one of those magical wake-ups in Peru.
