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.

Russell created a lovely experience for us and we only stopped by for about an hour! Served us ice cream, taught us about the different fruits from the region and allowed us to sample cocoa from his family farm. Incredible!

Exceptional service at Sanctuary Lodge! Russel’s passion for cacao was inspiring, and Joshimar’s mocha—the best I’ve had in Peru—was unforgettable. Thank you ❤️❤️

Even though we were not guests of the hotel, we enjoyed the beautiful buffet breakfast with our tour guide during our visit to Machu Picchu. It was a rainy morning, and this was the perfect place to relax while the weather improved. The food was delicious, the hospitality was excellent, and our waiter José was amazing. Highly recommended!

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.
