MISKI SAMAY DOMO BOUTIQUE

Personal service where literally nothing is too much trouble. Pretty much everything has been thought of to make your stay both relaxing and unique - and in the unlikely event that you need anything extra it will be provided with a smile and a flourish. Manager Roger manages to combine exemplary youthful energy and a friendly, charismatic demeanour with absolute professionalism and a customer service ethic that very, very few properties at any price point manage to deliver wherever they are in the world. He taught our daughter how to cook traditional Peruvian huancaina pasta sauce, talked for ages with our football-mad son about the history of local favourite club Cienciano de Cusco, got up at 4am to pack hot scrambled eggs and ham & cheese sandwiches into breakfast bags when we set off before dawn to hike to Machu Picchu, accompanied us on an impromptu guided walking tour to a local hummingbird sanctuary when we found ourselves with a spare afternoon, and personally escorted half our group 15km to Ollantaytambo railway station when our plans unexpectedly changed and the group had to split up. I cannot overstate the effort and creativity Roger put in to making sure that every aspect of the stay was perfect (nor how rare that is these days). The rooms (or “domes”) are every bit as comfortable and well-appointed as a high-end four- or five-star hotel room. Every one has a private garden and terrace, as well as an exterior hot tub that Roger will fill and set up for you whenever you want. There are only six domes in all, and the clever way they are laid out in the immaculate gardens (complete with hummingbirds), means it feels like you essentially have the place to yourself. The view from the beautifully furnished panoramic dining room that dominates the Sacred Valley is superb. The same can be said about everything we ate and drank at Miski Samay, all of which was expertly prepared fresh for us by Roger himself or his outstanding chef.

I can find nothing even remotely negative to say about Miski Samay, its team and the experience it delivers. If you are planning to stay in the Sacred Valley during a trip to Peru, do yourself a favour and book at least a few nights here. It is incomparable value for money and I guarantee you will not regret it - or forget it.

Minha experiência no Miski Samay Domo Boutique, superou minhas expectativas! Além do atendimento excepcional da esquipe do hotel e do cardápio maravilhoso do jantar e do café da manhã com sabores típicos do Peru, aproveitamos nosso estadia após um dia de visitas aos sítios arqueológicos de Ollantaytambo, na banheira de hidromassagem tomando uma garrafa de vinho e relaxando nesse cenário único! A proprietária do hotel nos atendeu pessoalmente e foi incrível conosco, além de tirar todas as nossas dúvidas sobre os passeios turísticos, nos forneceu um carro com motorista até o centro historico de Ollantaytambo que ficou a nossa disposição para nos levar de volta ao hotel!! Enfim, o Miski Samay Domo Boutique é a melhor opção para se hospedar com conforto na região de Ollantaytambo!
