About Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge

Close Panel

Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge is the only hotel located adjacent to the Inca citadel of Machu Picchu. The location is spectacular, with some rooms offering views of the ruins, but this privileged location is reflected in the high cost of the accommodation! The Sanctuary Lodge is part of the Orient Express group.

The hotel offers 29 rooms and two suites. All are equipped with private telephone, satellite TV and VCR, minibar and safety deposit box. As well as standard rooms there are patio rooms with access to a private patio and sitting area, mountain view rooms with a view across the Urubamba River to the forested mountains, and panoramic view rooms with private terraces. The suites have a bedroom, separate indoor sitting area, and some of the best views from their private terrace.

The Sanctuary Lodge has two restaurants and a bar and full board is included in the room rate. A limited room service menu is also offered. Additional services include a small gift shop, massages, and a videotape library with a good selection of classic and award-winning films. Each evening a multimedia presentation is given about Machu Picchu and its flora.

Pricing guidelines for Peru

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

International flights will add from about £750 to £1000 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). Peru combines very well with Ecuador (including the Galapagos Island), but can also be linked with Brazil.

For a specific personal quote based on any tailor made itinerary you have in mind, please contact us and we’ll be happy to help you.
