Inkaterra Machu Picchu

Located in a high Andean village amid an enchanting cloud forest, Inkaterra Machu Picchu is a great base for exploring the ancient citadel. With an emphasis on sustainable tourism, this elegant, colonial-style hotel is one of National Geographic’s Unique Lodges of the World.

The 81 luxurious casitas house a combination of rooms, suites and villas, all elegantly appointed with tiled floors, period wooden furniture, crisp white linens and bright Andean blankets. The spacious villas have private plunge pools and 24-hour butler service.

Dine on Peruvian fusion cuisine and New World wines in the elegant restaurant, or opt for Peruvian classics in the casual Café Inkaterra.

The magnificent ruins of Machu Picchu are within easy reach and a highlight of the stay. But leave time to explore the wildlife and nature of the cloud forest on birdwatching trips and orchid walks, and visit the spectacled bear project. Rejuvenate with an Andean hot stone treatment in UNU Spa.
