About the Hotel
Machu Picchu is truly a must-see, must-experience destination. Steeped in history and located high in the Peruvian Andes, there is only one hotel located within walking distance of the ancient Inca citadel - Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge by Orient-Express. With just 29 rooms and a pair of suites, and the most spectacular mountain views, the lodge offers accommodations that feature classic appointments and modern amenities alike - from mini bars and cable television, to direct telephone access and bottled water. As wonderful as Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge is, it plays only a supporting role in its stunning surroundings. One of the world's most breathtaking sites, Machu Picchu is a sacred and magical place.

Great Lunch
Amazing experience. Jean Carlo was very helpful and pleasant!

Relaxing spot for a lovely meal.
We had a lovely lunch à la carte, the ambiance was peaceful and relaxed, ideal after a busy morning hiking the Wayna Picchu. The food is a mix of traditional and modern Peruvian with local ingredients. Our waiter was very prompt and kind. All the staff were friendly and ready to serve. We had truly a lovely experience and the food and drinks were excellent.

Just perfect
The assistance from the staff was amazing, so helpful and thinking ahead for me. Nelson organised so much as I was travelling solo. The whole trip from Cusco to the hotel and the the Citadel would not have been possible for me without his help and advice. The hotel itself is lovely and it is obviously a joy to be a guest. I had a lovely room with a view of the beautiful tended garden, the hummingbirds are charming to watch. So much attention to the details and things that guest would enjoy (the potato talk! the drink tasting and the various gifts of chocolate, thank you Katty). The hotel's proximity to the park entrance is an amazing facility, and very helpful if an older guest.

We had the great experience at Sanctuary Lodge
Sanctuary Lodge is a hotel that is located in front of the entrance of Machu Picchu. This a 4 star hotel, but the experience was 5 star for sure. The hotel is not big, There are two restaurants, one is a buffet, and the other is a la carte, both, very good. The hotel is all inclusive, and the food and drink were delicious. The room is beautiful, the bed is very comfortable, but the bathroom is a little small. The staff is great, very kind, friendly and gentle, the service was really outstanding. The amenities are great. We loved to stay at the Belmond, and would stay again for sure. It is a little overpriced, but it was worthy every sole.

We visited Peru and the entire trip was spectacular. Orient-Express hotels provided exceptional service and world-class accommodations. We stayed at the Miraflores Park Hotel, Hotel Monasterio, and Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge. All three hotels had beautiful rooms, outstanding restaurants, and a helpful friendly English-speaking staff. From now on, Orient-Express will be at the top of my list for worldwide travel.

We traveled to Peru and enjoyed stays at Miraflores Hotel in Lima, Hotel Monasterio in Cusco, and Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge. I am highly satisfied and recommend these hotels without reservation.

Our travels have taken us to several Orient-Express properties. The Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge is exclusively situated at one of the most 'magical and mysterious' sites in the Americas, and guarantees the visitor never-to-be forgotten experiences.
