Colca Canyon Hotel Guide - Luxury Hotels in Colca Canyon, Peru

Best location for Colca Canyon, a bit pricey but not much else to choose from in this category of hotel here. Beautiful setting and on the road to the canyon. Be sure to ask for bug spray if you want to have your doors open.

Location was very convenient. Dining was good. Our neighbors were talking nonstop and from time to time their voices would get loud enough that we could easily hear them. I notified the front desk and was assured they would do something. They did nothing. Aside from this incident, the stay was great.

Pros: The property was very modern, bed was comfortable, room was clean, the water pressure and temperature were great (!), heater in the room, the staff were very helpful and it is located just steps away from the main plaza in Chivay. Cons: Breakfast ends at 8am so don't sleep in, the Wi-Fi dropped out quite often. Overall I'd recommend Sierra Alta as a good place to stay in Chivay.

Rooms were nice. When we arrived, the hotel did not have any record of our reservation but they quickly fixed that. It was a shame the breakfast buffet changed each day, depending on how many guests were in the restaurant. We went from having a gorgeous buffet of food the first morning, to a few bread rolls by the third morning.

We went to The Colca Lodge to celebrate an important wedding anniversary. We wanted the hot springs experience, and got it. Great natural pools at different temperatures, lovely rooms, great grounds and views that did not quit. We enjoyed walking the grounds, visiting the Condor and LLama exhibits and seeing the llamas up close. A problem came up with our key and it was quickly--and well--accommodated. Front desk manager also solved a transportation problem for us. Great job!!!

Rooms are very nicely decorated, comfortable, all around a garden. The French hosts are extremely friendly, very helpful. We also booked a horse riding excursion to the Uyo-Uyo ruins: absolutely great! We dined there and the food was very good, prepared by three talented 'mamas' in the opened kitchen next to the tables! The main attraction is the... planetarium! one of the largest telescope of Peru allows to enjoy the southern sky perfectly clear at this altitude and with no lights around. Each evening, weather permiting, a tour is offered and everybody can enjoy watching the deep sky objects while being explained southern hemisphere astronomy. Just perfect for the whole family!
