Llactapata Lodge - Machu Picchu

The views were stunning, the bed was super comfy, and the breakfast was fantastic.

“Vi stannade 4 nätter och det var det bästa”

Everything was perfect. The people on site, Felix and Gisela, treated us like family. The breakfast and food were incredible, and the view from the place was magical. For the two of us, 65+, who aren’t hikers, the climb up was a real struggle, but once we made it, it was worth it.

The location is amazing. The rooms are warm and well kept. Definitely worth a try.

“Fantastische Aussicht, aber leider extrem viele Mängel – keine Empfehlung!”

The only bright spot was the one-of-a-kind view of Machu Picchu and the surrounding mountains. The beds were rock‑hard, waking me up on a “stone block” with a stiff neck after a single night. The bathroom was a nightmare: the toilet leaked, keeping the floor wet, and the door wouldn’t close because it didn’t fit the frame. Spiders were crawling in the shower, and I had to wait a full 5 minutes for the water to heat up. Trash littered the entire property, stray dogs nearly entered my room, and on the way to the apartment, a pile of donkey manure lay right on the tiles in front of our door. The staff were unfriendly, and despite asking in advance, we were charged exorbitant card fees. The half‑board we booked was disappointing because drinks weren’t included; a liter of water sold separately for a ridiculously high 10 Sol. The dinner portions looked decent, but the kitchen looked dirty, the dishes were unclean, and the whole dining room was spotted, killing our appetite. Breakfast didn’t start at the promised 5 am but at 7 am, offering only scrambled eggs and coffee, and the pancakes and toast were cold and dry. Wi‑Fi was almost non‑existent, only available from 5 pm to 9 pm with frequent drops; it was completely out in the morning.

The location and views are incredible, right on the Salkantay trail with a direct view over Machu Picchu. The room itself was clean, lovely, and genuinely classy, making it a brilliant spot to stop along the hike. It’s quite pricey for the area. Dinner was pretty average for the area and we were grouped onto tables with others with sharing plates. There’s no small shop on‑site which you’d expect on a trail when you need to pick up a few snacks. Breakfast was a pain, staff just dropped off a plate of plain pancakes, dry sweet bread, and avocados, then went back to sitting in the kitchen. We had to keep getting up to ask for basic stuff like salt, jam, butter, eggs, and coffee. Fine for a budget spot, but a bit of a letdown when you’re paying more premium prices. I hope the team take the criticism on board as the location is unbelievable.
