"Had a great stay at Rock Rivers. The staff also coordinated with my girlfriend to surprise me with Peruvian wine, cake, and a decorated room for my birthday when we arrived. We arrived very late (around 9p) and were quickly checked in. The rooms are clean and warm. The free breakfast is a great benefit. Had an enjoyable stay here!"
"Perfect location, nice rooms, sauna/spa was helpful after a lot of hiking
Two real complaints
First, the room doors were super thin, so we could hear everything going on on our floor and in the town, basically all night long
Second, the food on-site wasn't quite what we were hoping for, could have used higher quality burgers and wings (both of which were hyper processed, not fresh at all)
Minor point - we agreed to pay extra to check-out late (fine, that's not exactly unfair)
But when the property ran out of hot water that morning, and the whole point of late checkout was kind of lost (so we could shower after visiting Machu Picchu), they stuck to their guns and charged us extra. Would have been a good time to refund the extra charge."
"Very attentive staff! We loved the delicious breakfast. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, and the location near the bus station was extremely convenient."
"5/5 Stars – Truly a 10/10 Boutique Hotel in Machu Picchu!
We stayed at Casa del Sol with our family of 5 and absolutely loved it. This high-end boutique hotel delivered exceptional, high-touch service from start to finish — they anticipated every need and made our trip feel effortless and special.
Highlights:
• Perfect location right by the train station and river in Aguas Calientes
• Seamless train arrival with bag escort service
• Delicious lunches to go for Machu Picchu
• Outstanding Pisco Sour mixology class
• Amazing breakfast buffet and the best dinners we had in the area (with a great wine menu too)
• Staff happily handled all custom requests
Special thanks to Cesar, Sandy, and Nilton for their warm, attentive, and incredible service — they really made our stay unforgettable.
If you’re looking for luxury with heart in Machu Picchu, book Casa del Sol without hesitation. We’ll definitely return! ❤️"
"They serve a full breakfast and made up to go breakfast for us when we had really early excursions. Very sweet and helpful staff. The rooftop balcony had a nice view of the whole city."
"The staff is super friendly. They let us check in a few hours early. They have a beautiful lobby and thet are located next to the river- the sound of the running water is amazing. The rooms were very nice and comfortable. They serve a great breakfast as part of your stay. And they kept our luggage while we visited Machu Picchu. I would highly recommend them. Sandra"
