Stayed here after completing the Inca Trail, great place to recuperate! Really comfortable beds with down comforters, and a great location in the old Inca town!

Nice hostel ! Hamac on the top floor, big kitchen, lounge with sofas, close to the main plaza and 10 min walk to the train station. The bathroom is so so (problems with hot water) but still it's a good place to stay before going to Macchu pichu :) The staff is amazingly nice.

Cosy little hostel located at a good spot. Very helpful staff (owners) who can advise on local attractions (and how to get inside without paying). Extra portion of breakfast was a little overpriced, but does not matter that much (don't take it if you're ok with bread and marmelade). No computer with internet, which is a little pity.

Nice hostel, still starting up but with lots of potential. The village is much nicer and prettier than Aguas Caliëntes and we advise everybody, who is not desparate to catch a sunrise at Machu Picchu, to stay the night in Ollantaytambo and to make shure to enjoy the attractions there as well

I had a nice stay at this hostel. They were in the middle of renovations when I was there. It was a nice place to base myself to explore the sacred valley.

This hostel was amazing! The staff was so friendly and helpful about what to do in town. Everything was clean and the beds were super comfortable. If I were to ever go back to ollantaytambo I would stay here!

The staff were very helpful in giving us tips on free things to do. We had children with us and they were offered pancakes for breakfast which went down really well! Local shop was useful for beer and other provisions. Overall, great location up a coballed street ; really welcoming staff and a great view of the ruins up the mountain from our room.

Peruvian family hostel but owners girlfriend is english. Not authentic, hostel looks like English B&B. Kitchen dirty, family cat roams Worktops.On arrival given wrong room.Once unpacked it was offered at higher cost. English lady was shocked we wouldn't pay extra 20soles "you're English, what's that to you? Towels advertised as free on HWorld = 5soles. No access to kitchen to make breakfast as house is locked. None of these rules had been explained. Poor communication but not when wanting money!

Excellent rooms, clean and they have full kitchen with tables like restaurant. Ask the staff about Inca ruins that are not in the tourist scene and are free to visit like the Inca Pool. I recommend it!

Great location, just off the main square. Clean, good wi-fi. Can't comment on the showers as there was no water in the whole town when we were there!

I believe we were the only ones there the first night so that felt a bit odd but everything was lovely.

If you go to ollayntaytambo you have to stay here. A home atmosphere and the staff are the friendliest I have ever met! Awesome place!

A very nice place to stay. The rooms here are very clean and well taken care of. The public kitchen is the very best I have seen. The only minus in terms of facilities for me were the shared bathrooms, which were a bit shabby. The location, meanwhile, is great... along the prettiest street in town. The staff were exceptionally helpful when we needed to plan a trip back to Cusco using local transpotation and making lots of stops.

This is a new renovated hostel with a roof-terrace, with beautiful a view. There you can see all the inka sides around.
