A simple hostel, with a very friendly family running the spot. Despite a language barrier we figured it out and I enjoyed my stay a ton! Would definitely recommend.

Ollantaytambo Hostel
Excellent staff and customer service. We were treated like FAMILY. Anything we needed food, drink, taxi, bus, and advice on visiting tourist sites was explained in detail. Rosa is an amazing, caring, & lovely person. A big plus was also that we were just steps away from the Ollantaytambo ruins. Definitely will return with family and friends. Recommend to everyone that will be visiting Ollantaytambo. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality.

Perfect location, nice stay
Owner is helpful and fun to talk to if you speak Spanish. Some of the rooms have a cool, interesting feel, with stone walls. A comfortable place located right by the ruins, and steps away from main areas in town.

dont delay, STAY HERE
Just a wonderful place to stay. Incredible location right at the ruins and a 10 minute walk to the train station. Rosa who runs the place is also wonderful. We had to get up at 4am to make our 5am train to Maccu Picchu and she was awake and waiting for us to give us some breakfast snacks to take with us. We also had a lovely breakfast the next day (at a more reasonable hour of 8am). The best value for money we’ve found in the whole of Peru.

The room felt like it was in a cave and we both loved that. Very, very quiet and cool for comfy sleep. The room was very clean. The owner asked what time we wanted breakfast and then set the most adorable little table for two for breakfast. Really sweet and good customer service. Nice, quiet location in Ollantaytambo and would recommend for an excellent value for your money.

Comfortable
My family and I only stayed there for a night but the place was really nice, the people that run the places allowed us to leave our bags in one of their rooms after checking out as we wanted to explored the city. The room was clean. The only thing is that it was a bit too far from the Main Plaza where we hang out the most but is closed to one of their main ruins. There is no breakfast included, which I missed when I booked it. Overall, nice place.

The owner, Paola Rosa, went above and beyond to accomodate my family, which included a 77 year elderly man with limited mobility. We secured 2 rooms. The rooms are adequate for the price, and there was hot water. The owner speaks Spanish and Quecha, and her son speaks speaks those, as well as English (he guides people on the Inka Trail) This hotel is steps from the Ollaytantambo Archeological site, and a short walk to the Plaza de Armas, and not far from the train station. Baggage storage was also available after checkout. We had a fantastic experience, and we are returning for another stay in 2 days on our return journey from Machu Picchu. Note: 1 towel per person, and 1 bar of soap per person. No shampoo/other toiletries, although I suspect if you didn't have your own, Paola Rosa would find a way to get what you needed.

Affordable accommodation and a comfortable stay.
We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at this little gem. It was very clean and the beds might just be the most comfortable I have slept in during our stay in Peru. The bathroom as in great condition and the shower had great water pressure with hot water. A great price for a travelling family.

Cozy and well located
When I booked this hostel and I saw the price I was concerned of what I was going to get. This place turned out to be better than my previous one in cusco. This was a very cozy and well located place. This hostel had unlimited hot water also. The staff even assisted us with storing our bags for 2 days at no charge . This place is definitely my spot to stay when I return. You get way more than what you pay for.

This was just what we need- very simple, but clean and comfortable. Right off the plaza at the base of Ollantaytambo Ruins and the open market. A ten minute walk to the train and bus station. Love the big thick Rock walls of our simple room and especially appreciated Rosa and her caring nature!

Basic hostel
Rather basic but refected in the price. Tea/coffee maker not available as detailed in hostel information. Unheated. Central to town where breakfast can be obtained at reasonable price.
