Hotel muy bonito. El río alado lo hace mágico. La comida del restaurante espectacular

This is an elegant new hotel in a fabulous setting along the river. We were very excited to rest and recover there after the Inca Trail. However, the vibe at this hotel is seriously off. It was almost empty (and it's a large hotel), and the staff were stiff and formal. We had to sign a waiver of liability for "flames coursing through the building" before we were shown to our large and comfortable room overlooking the river. We had heard good things about the restaurant, but again, it's a huge almost empty dining room, with odd seating where we were seated across the length of a table from each other - too far to comfortably converse. And the food was cold. We also objected to what felt like extortion - the hotel is remote from town down a dirt road, and every time you try to leave the facility you must pay a fortune for a taxi that the hotel orders for you. For example, the taxi ride to the main road (about 2km) cost 25 soles, compared to 12 soles per person we paid for a two hour ride to Cusco in a colectivo. It's not so bad coming back from town where there is plenty of competition - we paid 6 soles for the tuktuk ride. But once you are at the hotel you are at their mercy. They seriously need to provide a free shuttle to the main road. Likewise, the hotel charged us 50 soles per kilo of laundry, compared to the going rate of 8 soles per kilo in town. And then they sent the laundry into town with us in a tuktuk, for which we paid. Beautiful hotel but unfriendly vibes.

Beautiful location right on a river. The hotel grounds are really outstanding and what makes the place standout. The room was very comfortable and clean, with a (rare for the Sacred Valley) great, hot shower! The breakfast was good and varied and there is really good food in the hotel restaurant. The hotel is about 10mins by car from the centre of Urubamba, away from the hustle and bustle.

The property is very nice. It’s well groomed and a wonderful place to hang out. The pool is wonderful and the spots by the river’s edge are inviting. The “Spa Pool” is a nice option in the cool evenings or windy days but we were charged $20.00 USD to use it on the first afternoon of our arrival. The staff was wonderful for the majority of our stay. Yeti, a very kind gentleman on staff there was quick to help us us in everything we needed. The reception desk is very attentive to arrange transport to other sites and destinations. Now the reservations I have about recommending this place to others? Its location in Urubamba is closed to a lot of sites but it’s a rough 15 minute drive off the paved city street. After seeing what I saw and traveling in the general area, I might recommend Ollantaytambo as a base camp location. Taypikala seems more of a Tour Bus Big Group kind of place. However, it is a beautiful place, nice rooms and a wonderful breakfast

El staff fue muy amable y cordial. El restaurant excelente. No andaba la calefacción cuando estuvimos, nos dieron calefactores eléctricos. Cambiaría las toallas. Las habitaciones muy cómodas y espaciosas.

It always clean

Beautiful property, room, pool and staff. Breakfast was sooo good with a view. Loved the stay here.

This was by far the best hotel we stayed at in Peru. Middle of nowhere but very good. Do it.

Love this hotel,

We didn't use them

Everything is great. Highly recommended

Such an awesome spot, everything we needed after the hectic adventure

Great service, excellent facilities

Rooms were really nice with comfortable beds. Hotel was very quiet which suited us at the end of doing the Inca trail. Llamas in the garden were a bonus!

We had a lovely stay at Taypikala thanks to the welcoming and very helpful staff (especially Louri)!! It was very quiet since it was the offseason. Every meal we ate at the hotel was delicious and we loved our massages at the spa. Since it was the offseason several things were under maintenance including the jacuzzi, the sauna, and the bar. Overall had an amazing time and will recommend to friends and family.

I loved this hotel! The place was beautiful, great view of the mountains, beautiful landscape. Definitely a great place to relax. The staff was also amazing! I received a few VIP perks: welcome chocolate mousse, access to a nice big jacuzzi and free upgrade to the suite with a huge jet bathtub. They also have a nice infinity pool and the hotel is close enough to town. Plus llamas and alpacas on their property for close up encounters.

El hotel es espectacular, pero no le estan dando el cuidado que necesita, los jardines estan descuidados y hay espacios necesarios que tienen deshabilitados, un hotel asi necesita tener operativo el bar y el espacio de yoga/gimnasio, es un desperdicio. La comida del restaurante riquísima pero el ambiente necesita q se aproveche mas y se tenga una atmosfera mas acogedora, ademas, l carta no tiene todos los platos que ofrecen y se desperdicia.

A perfect getaway to experience the Sacred Valley.

It was a beautiful property

This is a beautiful property nestled at the foot of a mountain and the Urubamba river flows through it.
