If massages and hot tubs are your thing, you might want to pamper yourself at Aguas Calientes Hot Springs, located 0.4 mi (0.6 km) from central Aguas Calientes. Why not take a stroll along the riverfront and watch the sunset while you're here?
Plaza de Armas is worth passing through for a few pics when in Cusco Historic Center. Why not live the cultural experience and visit the cathedral, churches and museums in the area? Your sightseeing tour starts here.
If you like strolling among the stalls, you might want to head out to San Pedro Market in Cusco Historic Center and take in the atmosphere. Splash some more cash at Calle Marquez, Santiago Plaza and Wanchaq Market.

Tierra Viva Machu Picchu
10/10 Excellent
"Amazing service and communication. Location is fantastic. Breakfast is tasty. They will meet you at the train station and take your bags back to the station when you leave. They had a living room we could use with couch and restroom when we arrived hours before check in. I would give more stars if I could."
"The great thing about Saska Hotel was that Carlos was very kind to us! We didn’t have any plans except for going to Machu Picchu. Then Carlos coordinated us to make plans, so we don’t get bored. I had an altitude sickness and without Carlos’s support We could not enjoy our first visit to Cusco. For example, he recommended us going to a tour, restaurants, and museums. Also the good thing was that they prepared for our breakfast and it was decent and the bedroom was very nice, but in the night it was noisy. I recommend to book the other side of the streets so you can sleep well. Saska Hotel had a good service because they had umbrella and an oxygen and coca tea for people who had an altitude sickness. Also in the room they had a refrigerator and a safety box. In the lobby they had filtered water, so we didn’t have to save money. Every day the cleaning person cleans daily and it was very comfortable. In the day we had to checkout at 10:00 and we had to use sometime until the flight departure at night. The good thing is that they kept our luggages for free."
"We really enjoyed every aspect of our stay here. It made a great home base for exploring Machu Picchu. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast had an amazing variety of traditional and continental options. Would definitely stay here again. "
"The clearest thing I can say about the staff at this hotel is that they have it down. I arrived early, they handled the paperwork, grabbed my bags and sent me on my way with a promise to notify me if my room was available early. I returned to find my baggage in my room and a well thought out welcome gift waiting for me. Not just your usual candy but useful items we often forget, nail clippers, a comb, eye shades, toothbrush.
The room is spacious and well laid out, the separate sitting area provides a nice change from fighting with my husband over who gets the single chair! There were even a couple of books available to make things homey
I went into the courtyard to find an adorable little alpaca named Kiki who was roaming about looking for pets. Pretty awesome!
I found out they had actually cooking and bartending class available. I learned to
Make cerveche from the talented and forgiving chef, Frank, who only winced a little at my knive work. Juan translated for all of us and kept things flowing as the host . Shakira gave us a lesson in bartending by having us make a piso sour. She added a perfect touch with real flowers to decorate the drinks. Did I mention that there was no charge for these activities? On my final day, while chatting with the staff during breakfast that this trip was to celebrate our 40th anniversary they offered us mimosas. Later they brought up a nicely decorated "happy aniversary plate to our room.
