My family of 9, including 4 kids, stayed one night while visiting Machu Picchu.  We were delighted with this establishment.  It is located on a street off the main square- not difficult to find but there are a lot of stairs to climb to get to the hotel.  We reserved three rooms and each one was attractive, very clean, and comfortable.  The bathroom was spacious and the towels were large.  We also had dinner and breakfast at the restaurant- scrumptious.

Fun stay!

First of all, make sure you  know the way there before you leave the train station.  Asking for directions on the streets won't help, and a wrong turn can cause you a lot of extra uphill hiking. It's on the edge of town and a bit of a way up the hill.

This is a comfortable lodge.  Relatively new and well-kept.   You'll have some noise from local  neighbors as it's not secluded.  While we were their, the neighbor's  dog was sleeping in a cardboard box just outside of the entrance.   The restaurant is convenient.  Don't get their take-away lunch for your day of hiking.  It's not really well-designed to handle the bumps of an adventure

Nice clean lodge 

Sadly this hotel is not what we expected. The photos, well staged and aimed, happily exclude that surrounding the hotel are half-finished buildings with farm animals, older buildings in disrepair, and not a square of forest. You also have to smell garbage as you walk to your room, but fortunately not inside the room. This was far from being a peaceful space.

No housekeeping came to empty our trash and refresh towels. This usually isn't so much a big deal, but in Peru where you toss your poop-covered TP into the trash can, you really want that tossed out daily.

A dog pooped in the center of the patio by the front gate in the first 30 minutes we were there. It stayed there for everyone to walk around for our entire two-day stay. No one at the hotel or restaurant bothered to pick it up despite walking past it dozens of times a day. It was strange, because the hotel host was fairly attentive when we asked for things.

On the positive side, the room was comfortable and so were the beds. One of our rooms had the most gorgeous view (room 5) that we had in all of Peru. The bathroom and bedroom were clean. Unfortunately, you hear families in nearby apartment living their lives all night long, and in the morning, roosters crowing in your ear.

The host was attentive to our needs, and we had a bunch: laundry, extra towels, extra pillows. But then we'd ask questions and be given wrong answers: e.g. we asked whether the hot springs provided towels, and the hosts said "Yes", but there were no towels at the hot springs.

Garbage smell and poop left on the patio

I stayed at Rupa Wasi for a night. The wooden bungalow like rooms are comfortable and cozy. The bed is a cloud to sleep on. The view from the balcony, rain, and birds chirping was fantastic. Do yourself a favor and stay here. 

Great bed, world class view... perfect

This is my second time staying here! I absolutely LOVE the environment! The staff have always been wonderful and it is such a cozy and unique place to stay. I love their focus on the environment as well, such a bonus! Their breakfast was amazing too, and starts at 4:30 am so if you want to get an early hike to Machu Picchu, you can go after having a great breakfast! I FOR SURE recommend this place!

Amazingly beautiful and peaceful stay in the trees!

The lady from Rupa Wasi picked us up from the train station and was very nice.It's located very well, like 1 block away from the main square and you do have to walk some stairs but it's totally worth it. The room we got was the honeymoon and it was perfectly packed! nice and big, beautiful bath, the shower was awesome, hot water! quite a nic experience of being safe combinaed with nature, big windows that help you see everything and if you wanna have a nice sleep, they als have black out curtains, bed was also very comfortable. We had to go early to machu picchu, so we went down to hav breakfast around 5 am and it was delicious. Great service!

Great experience in a beautiful tree house!

We recently stayed in two rooms for two nights at the Rupa Wasi Lodge. The first and most important thing to note is that the staff are very friendly and try to be helpful. The gal in the afternoon even came and found me after I'd dropped 50 soles in the lobby! Super impressive. The kids stayed in the tree house room and loved it. We had the double room on top and it was nice, too. We'd just hiked 4 days to Machu Pichu so the climb up to the hotel and our rooms was tough, but worth it. The Treehouse Restaurant has delicious food, but small portions for us starving hikers. One star off because the breakfast is not vegan friendly. Strangely, the restaurant has several delicious vegan options, but the breakfast is eggs and yogurt and cereal. I asked if I could just have a big bowl of the delicious potatoes instead of eggs and bread, but was told "no". No soy milk for coffee either. Given that animal agriculture is a leading cause of our climate emergency and millions of people around the world are choosing the vegan lifestyle to help and/or for their health, having vegan options at breakfast should be available. 

Lovely staff!

Getting to the rupa wasi lodge and from the reception to the honeymoon lodge was definitely worth it (Aguas Calientes is on a steep hill side).
As it is at the edge of Aguas Calientes, it is nice and quiet and the honeymoon suite gives a lot of privacy.
Staff is friendly and takes good care of the luggage while you're visiting Machu Pichu.

Worth the climb to the honeymoon suite

Stayed in honey moon suite. Had an amazing stay. Really nice bath tub and view on Machu Picchu. Super friendly staff and hotel restaurant delicious too. Really enjoyed the tree house! Super super comfortable bed as well. Will definitely stay again! 

Fantastic and magical 

We stayed for 3 nights.  The hotel staff was very friendly and nice but we had trouble getting anyone to remove the trash from our bathroom.  The bathroom and sink (which is right outside the bathroom) smelled strongly of something like cabbage.  The price was very reasonable so I give this hotel good marks for being a good value in a tourist town where everything is very overpriced.  The breakfast was excellent as it is served in the Tree House restaurant just across the way.  Very convenient and excellent food.  I recommend having dinner there also.
