Lodges in Cusco

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Spirit of the River Lodge! Nestled by the river, the lodge boasts incredible room designs and breathtaking window views that make you feel one with nature. A huge thank you to Rodi and Claudia for making our experience so unforgettable. Their warmth and hospitality made us feel right at home. Rodi’s tour of the Inca sites was nothing short of extraordinary—his passion and knowledge brought the history and spirit of the area to life. If you can, ask him to be your guide; you’ll gain so much insight and connection to the Sacred Valley! Claudia’s cooking was equally remarkable—each meal was a masterpiece filled with love and flavor. And, of course, we can’t forget Tupac, their adorable and friendly llama. Hugging him was such a unique and heartwarming experience! The lodge is a perfect blend of comfort, charm, and cultural immersion. To top it off, Rodi is beginning to organize Inca Trail tours with a big focus on ensuring porters are treated with the utmost care and respect. If you’re looking to explore one of the most unique places on Earth while supporting ethical practices, this is the place to start. We couldn’t recommend Spirit of the River Lodge more highly. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

What a stunning place to know as your home in a magical area in the mountain. The family are beautiful, and very wise. They have a sacred connection with the land and kindly share teachings of the history and traditional practices, music and pottery. The facilities are perfect for the price. A comfortable bed hot shower and kitchen with nice steel cooking pots. Fancy staying in tranquility in the mountains with a shop selling all organic groceries just a few minutes away. This is the place to come!

Everything about this hotel is pure luxury. The attention to detail is immaculate. It exceeded all of our expectations. The staff are so attentive and friendly. The food is outstanding. The spa area is like a French château with beautiful rooms and doors. The scenery around the hotel is magic.

I couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful way to arrive in Peru than at this special place. I initially planned to stay four days but ended up staying ten—and I already plan to come back. The rooms are cozy and clean. The shared kitchen is great for cooking, and the showers are warm and spotless. Wallpari Sonqo is located about 5 km outside of Pisac in Maska, surrounded by pure nature and a welcoming community of medicine people. Healing happens here on many levels. Many thanks to Cosma, Tento, the local community, and all the guests who made this stay so memorable.

The best breakfast ever I have had in Cusco area. You can enjoy breakfast at the terrace with a nice mountain view. Night jacuzzi spa at the garden under the stars was something unforgettable. Will be back!!! The owner is very attentive, caring and kind as well. You will get more than what you pay. The property is the same as in the photos.
