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.

Machu Picchu dining at it best!

After an amazing visit to Machu Picchu Circuit 3 and before we embark the Hiram Bingham train to Poroy we stoped at the Sanctuary Lodge for lunch. After amazing and exotic main dishes and fabulous Pisco Saurs we had the best ever Creme Brûlée with lemongrass! Unique and beautifully presented too. All of this with an absolutely flawless and friendly service!

After hiking Machu Picchu, my husband and I stopped in for breakfast. We were not guests of the hotel, however the staff was gracious in welcoming us. There is a large variety of food and drink. Everything was freshly prepared and very tasty. Our server, Russel was excellent. We enjoyed speaking with him. He shared a special drink of plantain, cinnamon and star anise. Russel provided excellent service. We recommend this restaurant. Thank you to the staff and especially to Russel!

Best Hotel to Visit Machu Picchu

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

After completing the Inca Trail, there is simply no better place to stay than the Belmond Sanctuary Lodge. Located literally at the entrance to Machu Picchu, the convenience alone is unmatched, but what truly sets this property apart is the overall experience. Our group of 11 ladies arrived after four unforgettable days on the Inca Trail and spent the afternoon exploring Circuit 1. The next morning, we were able to enter early for a full Circuit 2 tour, the most comprehensive route through Machu Picchu, without the stress of transportation or early morning travel from Aguas Calientes. Being able to walk directly from the hotel to one of the world's greatest wonders was priceless. The service was exceptional from start to finish. Every staff member made us feel welcomed and cared for after our trek. The rooms were comfortable and beautifully maintained, providing the perfect place to rest and recover. The restaurant exceeded expectations, with delicious food, excellent service, and a relaxing atmosphere that allowed us to soak in the experience even after leaving the citadel. And the gardens, and patio were our fave place to hang out! What we appreciated most was the gift of time. While most visitors rush in and out of Machu Picchu, staying at Sanctuary Lodge allowed us to experience it at a slower pace, watching the changing light, returning for a second day, and truly appreciating the magic of this extraordinary place. If Machu Picchu is a once-in-a-lifetime destination, staying at Belmond Sanctuary Lodge is the way to experience it. We cannot speak highly enough of the service, accommodations, dining, and unmatched location. Absolutely unforgettable.

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.
