the staff was great! Señor James helped us book all of our sacred valley trips, helped us with the details of each day, and gave us a great deal. The view of Cusco from our room was great and the breakfast was a great way to start each day.

The staff are amazing. The room was nice and given the time we arrived we were allowed into our room straight away to complete check in later that morning which given I was sick on arrival I really appreciated. The view from upstairs is incredible...
