Rio Sagrado, A Belmond Hotel, Sacred Valley

Spectacular view of the river, birds singing every morning and evening. Excellent food and selection, espresso made on an outside fire! Great room and bathroom. Staff is extremely attentive and accommodating. Baby alpaca feeding is a pure delight - just wish some younger guests would not chase them for pictures. ||Would definitely recommend to anyone seeking being immersed in nature and feeling like you're staying in a large private estate. SO calming and soothing of an environment, if you want to recharge and disconnect from the world this is THE place!

We had a fantastic trip at Rio Sagrado. We arrived after three days in Cusco and definitely were ready for some relaxing. The feeling you get when you arrive to the property is unlike anything else. It is insanely tranquil and peaceful. The hotel has so many options in terms of amenities. The pool is heated and was wonderful even though it’s technically winter season there, it was definitely warm enough to enjoy ! The sun is strong. Our room also overlooked the river and included yoga mats. The service as always at Belmonds was impeccable. I loved the breakfast as well. The hotel was really willing to go above and beyond to make our stay extraordinary. Thank you especially Dany at the restaurant and Corina our amazing tour guide who took us to Maras, Moray and ollytanmbo and a wonderful private picnic over a lake! Oh one more thing! The feeding the baby alpacas on property everyday is SO cool! I highly recommend this property.

Rio Sagrado exceeded my expectations! The room was stunning, the staff were absolutely amazing and the food at the restaurant was delicious and 5 star quality ! The service was truly some of the best I have experienced with little added extras and surprises throughout the stay. It’s a peaceful, relaxing stay. Feeding the alpacas was a memorable touch! Special mention to Dany who was fantastic and so lovely at every meal. Would 10/10 come back and recommend to everyone!

The hotel is truly beautiful — the grounds are filled with flowers, the views are stunning, and we loved the baby alpaca feeding. The heated pool was a real treat, and the staff were consistently kind and welcoming. Dinner on both nights was absolutely delicious and memorable. That said, there were some misses we didn’t expect from a boutique, higher-end 5-star property. We were told the spa was limited to 30 minutes per stay, which seemed unusual, especially since we often noticed it empty for hours. Turndown service also felt poorly timed — almost always when we returned from a long day — and could have been easily coordinated with our dinner reservations, as other luxury hotels often do. Finally, communication was lacking around on-property activities. We later found out there had been things like ceramic painting and stargazing, but no one informed us, which was quite disappointing. Overall, the setting and hospitality were wonderful, but with better communication and attention to these small details, the experience could truly match the level of a top-tier boutique hotel.

We stayed at Rio SAGRADO several nights. Would like to tell Thanks a lot to the hotel staff which was very nice and friendly to us and our kids!|They made our stay! Hotel is very nicely located next to the beautiful river and mountains. Has and amazing garden with beautiful baby lamas walking around. Just a heaven in the mountains. The only problem from our point of view is that the rooms are a bit “tired” and could be renovated. All the rest is really great

We had the most incredible trip to Rio Sagrado. They are truly taking fine hospitality to a new level - the care and detail they put in to making their guests feel cared for is unmatched. And the landscape is absolutely breathtaking. The hotel's proximity to so many interesting, beautiful places coupled with their incredible Hospitality makes it the perfect place to relax and explore.

So the location is beyond review. It’s totally amazing listen and watching the river go by. The amount of green space is incredible. The alpacas running around and feeding opportunities is so cool. I loved that they had a soccer ball and other things out to play with. The rooms are nuts. We stayed in the large villa this time but have stayed in the regular rooms in the past and they were great as well. As far as the service goes. Food service is slow but that all of Peru. There was a mistake in there system on what we reserved and so we missed out on some benefits in the start of our trip. But that’s ok because the hotel and Javier in particular went above and beyond to square it all way. I think it shows more when there is an issue and they fix it then if things just are normal. The spa was also very nice. Kids loved the pool I loved the chairs by the river.

Had a wonderful lunch that was as tranquil and beautiful by the river. The food was delicious. We had the ceviche, such confit, and crispy pork. All were tastefully presented. Our waiter Edson was very attentive, warm, engaging, and gave excellent guidance through the menu. The feeding of the alpacas was also special. Giving many photographic moments with the gentle animals.
