Frommer's Review

The newest upscale hotel in Aguas Calientes is perfect for someone who wants the comfort and services of Machu Picchu Pueblo Hotel but at a more accessible cost. A sprawling, cantilevered structure -- with stonework designed to echo Inca masonry -- near the river and a 10-minute walk from the train station, it offers spacious tiled-floor rooms with excellent bedding, soft linens, and Andean motifs in bathrooms and on the headboards. Many rooms have small balconies. Guests who are beat from scaling Machu Picchu will revel in the full-service on-premises Aqlla spa, where they can pick up a relaxing massage or indulge in the steam sauna. The restaurant terrace, with views of the surrounding mountains, is a good spot to celebrate making it to Machu Picchu.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
