About

Set on the highest & most beautiful hill in Pisac, overlooking ancient Incan Ruins, Wolf Totem Guesthouse has been designed as a holiday from the holiday for the long-term travelers. Alongside the breathtaking views, gardens and common areas, Wolf Totem features a Steam Punk Cafe with Fiber Optic wifi to do all your Digital Nomad work (New dedicated Co-Working space). Also, we offer a a yoga deck with stunning views for self practice.

The property is located on the top of a hill only accessible by foot. There are 150 mountain steps to climb required to get to reception. Good physical shape and a backpack are highly recommended. Heavy carry on luggage will be extremely hard to bring up the hill. Guests are expected to carry own luggage.

Wolf Totem Guesthouse is 5 minutes to town by moto, or a 15 minute walk to town. Wolf Totem is close enough to all you needs, and far enough away from the hustle and bustle.

All beds feature comfortable western-style brand new bedding, night stands, bespoke lamps, backpack lockers, USB ports for fast phone charging and privacy curtains. Gas heated showers provide piping hot water and the expansive washroom area with immense mirrors is a great place to glam yourself up for the night.

A great place to stay. Ivan is so welcoming and lovely, and an amazing chef. Book for at least 2 nights so you have the opportunity for a free sauna

Super sick and unique hostel with lots of amenities including a small pool, yoga deck, pool table and movie room. The host, Ivan, is a very well traveled and interesting person with a really great energy. Ivan also prepares really great homemade food for breakfast and dinner. The hostel has beautiful views of the city and is very clean. Only slight downside is that there’s a 20 min walk to the city, but the walk is beautiful and easy and I didn’t mind it at all. Highly recommend!!

Such a unique place definitely built with love 💓 Ivan was super welcoming and really makes the place feel like a home. Amazing views of the Valley and about a 21 minute walk from town but there are moto taxis available. Make sure you read the description before booking :)
