Aguas Calientes Accommodations
* All Prices in USDconjunction with a tour or trek booking.
The range of hotel options in Aguas Calientes is less varied than in other places and more expensive! The hotels also lack the character of hotels found in other more established and less utilitarian towns. You will pay nearly double in Aguas Calientes than what you will pay in Cusco for something of a similar standard.
Please note: we can only make hotel reservations for you in Aguas Calientes in conjunction with another of our treks or tours.

Gringo Bills Hostal
Colla Raymi 104
Gringo Bills is haphazard in many ways – but that doesn't mean that it's not still a good option in Aguas Calientes. Certainly, it's been recently built in by the municipality but the hotel still has more character and atmosphere than nearly all the other hotels in Aguas Calientes. It's built on several layers on the hillside, and is a maze of interesting nooks and crannies – great for kids. For adults, it has a recently constructed Pisco Bar which is one of the better places to pass an evening in Aguas Calientes. One of our favourite options.
Price Standard $75 (Single, Matrimonial or double) | Triple $105 | Family (5 beds) $150
The following two rooms have baths, ideal for a soak after an Inca Trail trek.
Junior Suite $105 |
Deluxe Suite $135
Inti Inn

Inkaterra Machu Picchu Pueblo Hotel
Sort of over from the train station
This hotel is like a tiny slice of paradise in Aguas Calientes and a stay here would make your visit to Machu Picchu doubly memorable. The hotel is perched on the edge of Aguas Calientes but a world unto its own, having developed and grown in an organic manner so there are all types of rooms and services on offer. If you can afford it, this is an amazing place to stay – we think it's Machu Picchu's most splurge-worthy accommodation. There are suites, little houses, secret spas… this is a magical hotel with superb atmosphere. There are daily talks and guided tours included in your stay, providing some excellent interpretation and information. Not only the most amazing hotel in Aguas Calientes, one of the most amazing hotels we have seen in all of our travels.
Price From $460 per night
Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge
Machu Picchu
Location, location, location – who can beat a hotel that looks out over the ruins of Machu Picchu? The main selling point of this hotel is this very famous view, and even then not all of the rooms have a view. Rooms are considered small for the price. Food is included in the cost of the room, but usually not raved about. Location is what you pay for here. Owned by Orient Express.
Price From $950 per night (or ask us for offers!)
