Tierra Viva Machu Picchu

Overall nice hotel, clean and with very good breakfast starting from 4:30 am.

Not so good value for money (like every hotel in Aguas Calientes). Our room was relatively noisy due to people walking in the hall and some unidentified humming noise (nothing that prevented us to sleep anyway).

The hotel is right at the city center. The deco of the hotel is very nice especially the elevator with some peruvian drawing. Our room was quite big with a small sitting area. The room was clean and comfortable. During our stayed, there were some road repaired right outside of the hotel. So it could be a nit noisy in the morning and the road was quite muddy to walk up to the city center. The breakfast was good with a lot of varieties. The staff at the hotel was great and very helpful. They had the pickup and drop-off services to the train station upon request.

I was quite disappointed of the view from my room,, even though there were some mountain and river views from the window but there was also a big dumpster in front.

The property was just far enough away from all of the noise of the town but close enough to walk it within a couple minutes. If you’re hiking up to Machu Picchu then you simply walk out the door and begin. They had an in room fridge with complimentary beverages (coke, Inca cola, etc...) and that was nice. We opted to get some room service which was good, quick and very hospitable. They were also kind enough to bring our luggage to the train station so we could go from Machu Picchu directly to the station, grab and go.

The shower didn’t drain well at all but served it’s purpose. The on site restaurant is less than desirable.
