Everything was lovely- the staff, rooms, breakfast buffet and grounds. The best was the location. It is literally along the train tracks where you catch the train to Machu Picchu (PeruRail, Inca and the luxury train). Do ask them about the path to take into the town center out the back of the hotel.

The property is delightful and best yet is located in the PeruRail station along the tracks where you board your train to Machu Picchu. Also, ask about the path in back of the property that takes you to the city center and Ollantayambo Archeological Site only 10 minutes walk away. Wonderful hotel!

Fantastic!!!

FANTASTIC! I was worried when I saw that the words "El Albergue" translated to "hostel" but this was no hostel. I had a beautiful room on the ground floor. It was completely silent after about 9 pm. I arranged through the hotel for a taxi to come and pick me up in Cusco. It was easy and seamless. The room was clean and the free breakfast was lovely. I would 100% stay here again and would recommend this place to anyone, especially because of it's convenient location directly inside the train station!

All of the food from the free breakfast to the dining options for lunch and dinner were delicious and beautifully presented. It was very fun to stay in a 100 year-old hotel and to walk around the gardens. Taste from the distillery and check out the coffee roasting.

Very cute and convenient when taking the train to MP at 6 am. We paid a lot of money for the food for the Christmas Eve dinner and it wasn’t good at all. Wasted our money. Other than that, it was a good place

Everything about El Albergue is incredible. Beautiful rooms and outdoor sitting areas, comfy bed, wonderful service. The entire property is spectacular with gardens, a distillery and coffee roasting. The morning breakfast was perfect before a day of exploring Ollantaytambo. The close proximity to the train station was also a plus! Oh and the restaurant and Cafe Mayu...So good! I hope I can return one day as I just loved the warmth of this hotel as well as the town of Ollantaytambo.

We loved this property, and its location to the train is perfect. Our only complaint was that there was no a/c. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the restaurant was amazing! They prepared box breakfasts since we were leaving early and held our luggage overnight until we returned from our Inca Trail hike. I highly recommend this property.

The place looks adorable but the problem with this place is that you smell diesel fuel all night long and you hear the train bell ring and the horn go off all night long. Staff is a little deceiving as they tried to add extra things to your bill and services. We asked the staff to weigh our laundry so we know how much to pay them for washing it. I watched her go around the corner and lay it down and then come back within one second and gave us a weight. As soon as she left, thinking, that was a little too quick I went around the corner to see the weight and it was not there so she made up the weight. The weight seemed way heavier than what it felt to me so we got gouged a little more that way as well.
