    Hot water for showers wasn't 'on tap' and had to be asked for in the evening.

    Excellent location in the centre of town. Our rooms were at the side of the hotel so we were not impacted by the noise from the town square. Breakfast was excellent and a boxed breakfast was provided when we had a very early start on our last morning. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

    The hotel was nice and located in the middle of town. The hotel was next to a creek/river with a nice view from the balcony.

    Minor note that the toilet seat in my room was a little broken

    Beautiful views. Room was very clean and comfortable and with a balcony overlooking the river - can’t get better than that when falling asleep at night. Staff prepared breakfast for us since we had an early trip.

    Bring an eye mask , my room had an automatic light that came on at dark. Bad design, but my eye mask blocked it out.

    The staff was amazing, location couldn’t be better. Rooms were very nice and also very clean. I highly recommend. My patio view overlooked the ruins , amazing !

    Breakfast room small and busy. Found the room cold on occasions - tried the heating but it seemed to be centrally controlled.

    The hotel and room setting was lovely - next to a fast flowing river. Direct walk (down hill) to the railway station and not far from an Inca site - which we could see from our balcony. Staff very helpful. Breakfast was fine but breakfast room small and busy so struggled to find a table.

    I booked this location for the river outside the balcony as I wanted some white noise to fall asleep easier. Well, there was construction going on outside which meant there was no water. I wish they had let me know in advance. Also some language barriers (I speak limited Spanish). I would stay here again though as the construction is temporary.

    The room was spacious. My balcony was nice with pretty flowers. Breakfast was good. The location was convenient. The staff was very helpful storing my luggage before and after my stay. They also did my laundry.

    There's no water in the river--- that defeats the purpose of a balcony river view.

    Location is good- close to the square and train. Hot water in showers. Nice family hotel

    Lovely family-run hotel in a beautiful town

    My only comment is that, since we had a room right on one of the external greenspaces/sitting spaces, we did have some little sugar ants that made their way into my snack bag. It ended up being fine, and it's truly sometimes just part of the deal, but ants are never fun. This could probably have been avoided if we kept the window shut but we wanted some fresh air. There was a heater in the room but no fan, and even in the winter it gets hot in Peru :)

    This family-run hotel was a great place to be located for four nights. My mom and I stayed in the Family Room which gave us extra space, the water was hot and water pressure was great, and breakfast was delicious! The hotel had filtered water for free so you could fill up your water bottles, and they were super helpful in getting us a taxi from Ollantaytambo to Cusco when we headed out. The beds were great, too. If you're on the fence about the sacred valley, definitely do it! Ollantaytambo was such a beautiful, ancient town, and Sol Ollantay is very central. Everywhere my mom and I ate was about a three minute walk away, and you are only a 7 minute walk from incredible Inca ruins.

    Internet connection didn't work so well. They had an electricity outage for half a day in the entire town, but even after that got fixed, the internet worked poorly, so I don't think it was connected.

    Location was great, we received a room with direct view to the famous steps/temple of Ollantaytambo. Room was veey spacious, perfectly heated for the winter time. Hot water running, big screen tv and everything you needed, 1 step away as you went outside. They also prepared breakfast to go for us, as we were leaving early - thanks to the staff!

    - Weak wi-fi made it impossible making overseas calls. They gave us a booster for the room. - On our first morning we had no hot water. We saw Derek at reception about it and he quickly ran to their basement, came back and advised us that we should have hot water now … which we did. We are sure he had forgotten to turn a switch on for hot water to our room. - Derek always appeared to be busy, dis-organised and rushing around. He kept us waiting 20 mins after check in time to give us a room. We forgave him because our room was so lovely. - Breakfast was disappointing. Everything was pre-made and sitting in dishes. There was no waiting staff in the breakfast area so guests had to fend for themselves. They did voluntarily offer us a packed lunch on the morning we went to Machu Picchu.

    We had a corner room on the ground floor. It was very sunny, spacious, had its own private patio with very comfortable seating and stunning views over the fortress. The bed was a king and was exceptionally comfortable. The location was very good as it was close to the cafes, restaurants, market, pharmacy, grocery stores, shops and an easy 10min walk to the railway station (to catch the train to Machu Picchu).
