Overview of Hotel
The Casa Andina Classic Aguas Calientes is the newest hotel in town, opening its doors for the first time in July 2014. Considered 3 Star Superior, the hotel offers 54 rooms over 5 stories. Three room classes are available: Standard, Superior and Junior Suite. Features of the hotel include a restaurant with a view of the Vilcabamba River, an internet centre and a same day laundry service. The Sama2Go shop (as found in many other Casa Andina hotels) offers ready to go snacks, sandwiches, drinks and more. A high quality buffet breakfast is included within the price.
Location
The Casa Andina Classic Aguas Calientes is located in between the lower train tracks of Aguas Calientes and the Vilcabamba River. From the train station the hotel is a 7-8 minutes’ walk and just 2-3 minutes from the main bus stop for access to Machu Picchu.
Our Thoughts!
The last time we were in Aguas Calientes, the hotel was in its final stages of completion, so we have only seen it from the outside. That said, going on the quality of the other 20 or so hotels in the Casa Andina chain that we have visited, we are confident to say that this is probably the best mid-range hotel in town. Once we have had chance to review the hotel we shall update this page.
Our clients who have used the hotel confirm that the hotel is indeed very good. However, they did note that River View Rooms were preferable to town view rooms (which actually have no view at all).
