Anyone stayed at Tambo del Inca, luxury collection by Marriott? If so what’s your experience and how far is it to Machu Piccu? TIA

Peruvian here. The hotel is a 15 minute drive to Ollantaytambo where you catch the train to Aguas Calientes (1h50m). From Aguas Calientes there is a 20min bus/taxi to Machu Picchu. You can get an English speaking guide at the entrance of Machu Picchu. Your hotel should be able to offer you an excursion but you’ll probably save money doing it yourself as they’d just book you a taxi to the station, train ticket, and bus or driver at aguas calientes. You can do it cheaper and safe by booking your own train ticket, having them call you a taxi to the station, and then taking the bus up to macchu picchu and getting an English speaking guide at the entrance.

Didn’t stay there but it’s outrageously expensive for the area. I had a good experience staying at non-Marriotts in Sacred Valley

In my experience some travelers are just experienced to traveling to Europe and staying at nice properties there and they get culture shock in Peru

Got a great deal on points pre-spg merger. Absolutely worth it, great facilities, amenities, and breakfast. Not the most convenient place to get to so expect to arrange a taxi anywhere you want to go but definitely an awesome experience.

I stayed at Sol y Luna. It’s also a little pricey for the area but not as bad as Tambo and I thought it was lovely.

Loved the hotel, one of my favorites. Cute little local restaurant nearby that was amazing!

The train to Aguas Calientes picks up there (or at least it did 2 years ago) so you have no problem getting to Macchu Pichu!

Just got a “Sheraton Vacations” special offer to basically get 5 nights at a Florida property for $250.

I read the fine print and other than a need to be flexible in terms of when you book, it doesn’t seem like there is a catch.

Anyone familiar with this “promotion” and what the downside might be? Or are they just looking to drive revenue to their other areas (restaurants, spa, etc) with a cheap room?
