The hotel is beutiful and clean, the staff was very friendly and helpful, and there is parking. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else. Great place to stay if you are traveling alone, or with a group.
Hotel is very conveniently located. Staff are very friendly. They kindly stored our luggage prior to our trip to Matchu Picchu and that was very helpful. Rooms were clean and comfortable with basic amenities. Breakfast was good. As a minor suggestion, it would add a great value if hot water kettle and tea options could be provided in the room or in a common location as we noted in other hotels we stayed during our trip. Overall, our stay was very pleasant and we truly enjoyed it! It’s a great place to stay!!
The hotel is what we expected, a really nice and beautiful place with excellent service. The staff were very helpful and kind. The location is great, very close to the main square and the ruins. Would recommend this place.
A short walk to the main plaza and a ten-minute walk down to railway station for Machu Picchu (MP). A nice room and decent breakfast. The lady owner was always very helpful. A very pleasant stay overall and great option for seeing MP to comfortable way!
Manager Tula was very friendly and helped us arrange all our itenarary. She was very informative and we enjoyed our stay alot. Location was convinient and within walking distance of all local attractions!
Very safe, interior access via a courtyard. Very friendly staff, clean rooms. Walk to the city square in minutes. They also have a upper terrace where motorcycles can be stored if you are trekking on a bike that's locked up. I would definitely stay here again.
This place was nothing less than an oasis of peacefulness in a chaotic place. After a long day of Machu Picchu adventure (4:30AM to 7pm) we were greeted by the owner to see if we needed anything. The staff and the owner continually went out of the way to make our stay great. Filtered water in the room and bottled water available for purchase at the front desk. Breakfast was very good too!
Absolutely scenic little hotel in ollantaytambo. The manager Ms Tula was very helpful in organizing a tour of sacred valley on our way back to cusco. The staff also ensured breakfast bags were kept ready for us for our early train to machu pichu. Would absolutely recommend
Clean, quiet and comfortable. Wonderful owner who was always present and provided advice. Owner was incredibly helpful when we needed to manage a medical emergency.

Good vibes!
Great little hotel. Excellent breakfast! Really cool common space and gardens. Luggage storage was perfect for Inca trail. Drop off and pick-up can be challenging on skinny Old Inca streets. 5 minute walk to Central Plaza.
Wonderful hotel. Large property right in this busy little town. But it has wall around it enclosing a beautiful property so you don't even feel like you are in town. Yet you walk the door and walk around town and even down to the train station if you like. Excellent breakfast. Fantastic service. Tula Gibaja, one of the Owners, was very helpful in directing us to hikes, sites to visit in the city and surrounding area, and places to go to. We highly recommend this hotel.
We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Samanapaq. It was located in a quiet area but only a two minute walk to the main square. Our room had everything we needed and the breakfast was fine. There was a large common area outside of our room where we could relax with more space.
The best part was the kind owner who gave us great restaurant and hiking suggestions and was very helpful in general. We were very satisfied with our experience!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about my experience at Hotel Samanapaq! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm smiles and exceptional hospitality that made me feel right at home. The lush, tranquil gardens surrounding the property were an oasis of serenity—a perfect escape after exploring the magical streets of Ollantaytambo.
The rooms were immaculately clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated, blending modern comforts with traditional charm. The bed was so comfortable that I slept better than I have in years! The complimentary breakfast was a delightful spread of fresh, local ingredients—each bite a delicious start to the day.
The hotel’s location couldn’t be more perfect! It’s just a short walk to the town center, yet it feels tucked away in its own peaceful world. The staff went above and beyond, offering fantastic tips for exploring the area and making sure every detail of my stay was perfect.
If you’re visiting the Sacred Valley, staying at Hotel Samanapaq is an absolute must. It’s not just a hotel; it’s an experience I will cherish forever. I can’t wait to return!
Wow. Hotel Samanapaq is an oasis in Ollantaytambo that I will recommend to anyone!!! Tula and the staff are incredible welcoming, helpful, attentive and warm. They are proud to welcome you to Peru/Ollantaytambo, and it shows. The hotel’s location is ideal - a short <5 minute walk to the center. The breakfast is beautiful and delicious, the hotel decor is stunning and tasteful, rooms are very comfortable (beds too!), and the property is spacious, lush, and beautiful. Our young children loved exploring the premises while we enjoyed our morning coffee. The Tula and staff are willing to help with anything and are well connected throughout the community - from laundry, to taxis, to activities.
HIGHLY recommend … we are so sad to have to leave!

The facility is run and owned by women and they were so helpful and kind!! I had so many great recommendations and the hotel itself is beautiful. Go to WATYA for dinner!
A lovely little green oasis with rustic charm. We had a charming and spacious room overlooking the garden. Short walk to the main square. Just stunning views all around and a less touristy (and free admission) Inca ruin site just steps from the property. We really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.
