Hotel Hacienda del Valle is a 3-star country estate tucked into the quiet village of Yanahuara, between Urubamba and Ollantaytambo, in the heart of Peru's Sacred Valley. Spread across gardens with mountain views, the hacienda-style property has a relaxed, low-rise feel with red-tile roofs, stone pathways, and a small wooden footbridge over a garden stream. Rooms are spacious and traditionally decorated with hand-painted headboards, wood floors, and Andean-weave bedspreads; many open directly onto a terrace or garden. Guests start the day with a complimentary buffet breakfast served from 6:00 to 9:30 AM, and can also use the on-site restaurant, indoor pool, sauna, and small gym. Its Sacred Valley location puts it about 10 minutes from the Ollantaytambo train station, the main departure point for Machu Picchu trains, making it a convenient overnight base before or after a Machu Picchu visit.
