About the Hotel
Machu Picchu is truly a must-see, must-experience destination. Steeped in history and located high in the Peruvian Andes, there is only one hotel located within walking distance of the ancient Inca citadel - Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge by Orient-Express. With just 29 rooms and a pair of suites, and the most spectacular mountain views, the lodge offers accommodations that feature classic appointments and modern amenities alike - from mini bars and cable television, to direct telephone access and bottled water. As wonderful as Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge is, it plays only a supporting role in its stunning surroundings. One of the world's most breathtaking sites, Machu Picchu is a sacred and magical place.

Reviews for Belmond Sanctuary Lodge
Luxury hotel at Machu Picchu
Excellent location just yards from the entrance to the park. Top quality hotel. Excellent staff. Very helpful. Restaurant was superb. Tasted my first smoked Pisco Sour. Marvelous.

If you can afford it - go for it
If you can afford it - go for it. Excellent Belmond service. Full board is worth it (including Moet at lunch). For those reviewers complaining about the building - It is not a 5 star building because is built on the footprint of the former research station. We are lucky any hotel was allowed to be built at the gates of Machu Picchu. The service and food make up for the smaller more motel like rooms (which still have marble bathrooms).

Excellent
Fantastic place right at the entry to Machu Picchu. Very friendly and warm staff. Rooms not overly large nor is the bath room, but quite adequate for the stay. Very nice gardens, but best aspect is proximity to the entry to Machu Picchu. Great mini bar.

We visited Peru and the entire trip was spectacular. Orient-Express hotels provided exceptional service and world-class accommodations. We stayed at the Miraflores Park Hotel, Hotel Monasterio, and Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge. All three hotels had beautiful rooms, outstanding restaurants, and a helpful friendly English-speaking staff. From now on, Orient-Express will be at the top of my list for worldwide travel.

We traveled to Peru and enjoyed stays at Miraflores Hotel in Lima, Hotel Monasterio in Cusco, and Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge. I am highly satisfied and recommend these hotels without reservation.

Our travels have taken us to several Orient-Express properties. The Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge is exclusively situated at one of the most 'magical and mysterious' sites in the Americas, and guarantees the visitor never-to-be forgotten experiences.
