This place is like walking into the garden of eden, with gorgeous gardens looking out to stunning views of the Andes. It is only a couple blocks from the main square, which makes it ideal for shopping and sightseeing, super-comfortable rooms with beautiful showers/bathrooms, and an included breakfast that cant be beat. The owner can point you towards anything you might need/want, and if you're looking for a reprieve from the noise and hustle of the 'normal' Peru, this is the oasis you are looking for.

The owner is very nice and helpful , warm hearted lady. She recommended very Peruvian local restaurants and prepared yummy breakfast just for us because she knows we will catch train at 6am. Hotel is very unique and beautiful.

Great hotel, conveniently located near the plaza de armas. Lovely and helpful staff as well!

We appreciated the recommendations given to us for dinner. Also, we were hiking the Inca trail the next morning and this was a convenient place to stay and be picked up. Would recommend to anyone!

The service is excellent. Tula is very helpful and knowledgeable. The rooms are comfortable and have all you need. Breakfast was excellent.Felt like home

The hotel was our favorite stay in the whole trip. The location was great, a short walk from the plaza de armas and the main ruins of Ollantaytambo. The staff was excellent. Extremely welcoming and friendly. We felt like home. I will certainly recommend this place to friends and family.

Very nice owners and hotel.. would 100 return just for the service alone

Liked everything about this hotel. They went all the way to make us comfortable

Great gem in the city center. The building is from 1600 century snd well maintained. Great staff

Great communication pre-visit through Hotels.com app. Signage isn't great. Wasn't clear where to enter when we got there and the taxi picking us up couldn't find us.HOWEVER, we had an amazing night. It is like a hidden oasis gem behind nondescript walls. Tula was very helpful at front desk and in getting us oriented to the whole MP train travel that we had already purchased. The rooms were clean. We were the only ones in the hotel that night. She set a fire for us in the central area where we could eat dinner. Both rooms had small heaters that were adequate. Initially, we had no hot water, as it had been 'turned off' during covid. Within minutes, Tula had turned the valve on and we were fine. She tried to move us along in the morning so we could enjoy breakfast while getting to the train on time. ( We walked to the plaza nd took a S/10 taxi to the station to save time) My family's only regret was that we didn't have time to just relax in this beautiful inn for a few days longer

Hotel Samanapaq made our stay in Ollantaytambo wonderful. We actually ended up staying two nights instead of one because it was the ideal place to rest up for an additional day and do some local hikes. The family run establishment was professional and super friendly from the moment we checked in until the moment we left. The facilities were clean, well equipped and we had some of the most wonderful hot showers I have experienced in Peru. I highly recommend this hotel if you are visting the ruins of Ollantaytambo or the surrounding areas.

Nice setting hotel with uniqueness of boutique like setting

The hotel is located a short walking distance to the main square. It is located behind a nondescript wall and door. However, upon entering, the hotel and grounds are beautiful. The property sits at the base of old Inca ruins located above the hotel which can be visited via a short hike. The grounds have beautiful flowers, trees, and bushes and the owner is a wonderful woman who loves gardening and keeping the grounds in perfect condition. The rooms are average size and are very clean and tidy. The free breakfast is fantastic and the setting is a separate garden room that allows a nice view of the grounds. Ollantaytambo is a hidden gem of a city with a lot of Inca ruins surrounding the place. In my opinion, I would visit this area again and skip Macchu Picchu. There are no crowds here and most of the Incan ruins are free to visit. Only one has an entry fee. The best way to arrive is by car from Cuzco. It is a 1 hour car ride ($25-$30 USD) compared to a 2.5 hour train ride (and costs more money).

Great experience. Great staff. Breakfast is decent. The hotel is well kept for the standards of what you will find for the area. Loved the super hot water. Heaters in rooms kept us warm. We got 2 rooms for my family. For those considering this town, the town is a much better option from staying at Aguas You get a true INCA feel. In Aguas, you get hecklers.

We were a little worried when we got to the entrance, but once in the courtyard we were amazed by how beautiful the grounds were. The staff was very helpful and friendly, and the room was nice but thebed was a little firm and the pillows were not very comfortable. It is fairly close to the center of Ollantaytambo and we were able to walk to all areas of the city we wanted to see. The only issue was that we were able to hear every noise from outside the hotel, including a party down the street as well as barking dogs both nights. This isn't an issue with the hotel (we found that every hotel we stayed at in Peru had the same problem) but travelers should be aware that they can expect to hear noise. Overall a great stay.

Considering you’re in Ollaytatambo, this hotel is very nice. It has comfortable and clean rooms, hot water, nice grounds, and above all, very friendly and helpful staff. Not as centrally locates as others but still a short easy walk (less than 10 min) to the main square.

Beautiful gardens, delicious breakfast, kind staff

Spent one night there with my family on our way to Aguas Calientes. Very nice spot with a big and beautiful garden where my daughter could spend all the energy accumulated during the long hours travelling by plane and car – she said this was the best hotel she's ever been :) Super friendly staff who went out of the way to accommodate our requests. Only down side is that the internet is only available on the common areas.

Nice and cozy hotel. Very quiet and pretty garden.

Really helpful and kind hearted employees, they helped me to communicate with local travel office when I felt anxious and finally resolved the problems for me. The place is not bad for the low price, but you cannot expect too much, most people get up early for hiking. Really beautiful yard with flowers. Unsatisfying aspect is that the breakfast is from 6, but I took a 5:50 train, most hotels in Cuzco will provide breakfast from 5 even 4:30.

Helpfulness and friendliness of the management. Very good breakfast.

Nice hotel and grounds for the price. They were very helpful with everything that we needed.

Beautiful property, very nice grounds, good location very close to plaza. Personal attention by family.

Gorgeous hotel and the most welcoming staff. Off from the main square a bit you have to ring the doorbell to enter the property so the staff know everyone on site which makes you feel very safe. The grounds were gorgeous with flowers and benches and hammocks for the guest to relax.
