Machu Picchu is known for its ruins and mountain views, and entices visitors with its popular attractions, including Aguas Calientes Hot Springs and Temple of the Condor.
Plaza de Armas is worth passing through for a few pics when in Cusco Historic Center. Why not live the cultural experience and visit the churches, museums and cathedral in the area? Your sightseeing tour starts here.
If massages and hot tubs are your thing, you might want to pamper yourself at Aguas Calientes Hot Springs, a popular spa located 0.4 mi (0.6 km) from central Aguas Calientes. Why not take a stroll along the riverfront and watch the sunset while you're here?
If you like strolling among the stalls, you might want to head out to San Pedro Market in Cusco Historic Center and take in the atmosphere. Splash some more cash at Santiago Plaza, Cusco Craft Center and Wanchaq Market.

Ureta Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful family-run hotel. Exceptionally clean, quiet, great breakfast. The manager is a very caring man, who drove me to a medical clinic when I started feeling sick from altitude sickness and was travelling alone, to make sure I was okay. "
"Our stay was amazing! Hot water bottles, evening tea, fire pits & private spa - these small touches elevated our stay! Unfortunately I really struggled with the altitude in Cusco, but the staff were really accommodating, sent breakfast to my room and followed up the following day. "

10/10 Excellent
"Attended international SKÅL CONFERENCE ONLY NEGATIVE was Rm 117 no where to hang WET TOWELS
left on the counter and they kept replacing them. No one replaces towels at home everyday or sheets every second day…waste of water, time and money. If towels are not on the floor they ar CLEAN. PLEASE INSTALL HOOKS SO PEOPLE CAN HANG UP TOWRLS….THERE IS LOTS OF WALL SPACE…because it’s not eco friendly …it really bothered me. Otherwise our stay was excellent ..tamara macIntosh"
"Kantu hotel is a really good choice. It is in a central location in Cusco and the staff are friendly and accommodating. We stayed either side of 2 treks and they stored our bags without question. If I visit Cusco again I would go there "
"The hotel’s staff were polite and helpful. Room was okay and they even provided a few bottles of soda and beer (complimentary) in our room. Breakfast buffet was simple but sufficient. Overall it was a good experience."
