The Parwa has a great breakfast and the king room was super comfortable. The owner is always available if you need anything. This is such a fun town and close to many Inca ruins. Tip… do the via ferrata and zip line tour.

After reading all these great reviews I was unpleasantly surprised when I saw our room . Very small, not well lit, kind of dirty …… but the topper was being misled by Jorge!! Prior to booking I asked about heat in the room as we are from Florida in the U. S. And used to warm weather. Jorge confirmed he had heat/ heater. I booked. Upon check in he said he would bring the heater to the room. We started to head out for dinner and I inquired about the heater. Jorge shows me this tiny heater the size of my hand , and says it has it to be turned off every 20 minutes that is how long it can run!! I said it was useless and I felt mislead. After dinner we found a place with heating , much larger room and cleaner . We checked out and did not spend the night. Our luggage was there for maybe 2 hours and we did not shower. Jorge said he would issue a refund. But we have not received anything and email is now turned off on Orbitz so no way to contact him without calling.

Such a beautiful and peaceful guesthouse. The room was soo spacious and provides you with the escape you truly seek after exploring all the major cities in Peru. We decided to stop over in Ollantaytambo on our way back from Machu Picchu and it was the best decision we ever made. The location of this guesthouse was amazing and is about 5 mins walk away from the main Plaza. The family in charge were soo charming and lovely. Truly made you feel at home. The breakfast was also delicious. Amazing stay, so much soo that we kept recommending this place to anyone who asked us and wished to visit the town during the rest of our stay. We recommend this guesthouse to anyone who wishes to visit Ollantaytambo

Nothing exceptional about this place. Pros: Great location, albeit not directly accessible by car (the stairs from the street to the house are steep). Jorge was friendly and helped us with bags and bag storage while we were away at Machu Picchu. Cons: Unfortunately, in the second room we stayed at after returning from Machu Picchu, we did not have hot water. Staff spent an hour trying to fix it and then blamed it on water pressure - except the cold water pressure was excellent. This left us without hot water the first night. The owner didnt even follow up to ask if we're still having issues or to apologize. The next day, i asked him to address the hot water issue and it turned out to be a quick fix, until one of us took a shower and we were left without hot water for the rest of our family. He never apologized for the inconvenience.

Great value, like a simple comfy homestay
Simple and welcoming, Parwa is the perfect place for budget-conscious travellers to take their rest. It's an outstanding value for the price, giving you everything you need (but nothing you don't). The beds are comfy and shampoo, towels, and soap are provided. Breakfast is simple, yet surprisingly delicious and includes a bowl of fresh and thoughtfully cut fruits; moist scrambled eggs; and oddly addictive loaves of flattened local bread with butter and marmelade. Best of all, Jorge and his family are warm and hospitable, happy to help and yet never intrusive. Wishing that Parwa house becomes so busy that you have no more free time to teach me Spanish. En Peru, no había encontrado un alojamiento más agradable que el suyo.

Great spot with lovely host
Jorge was a fabulous host. He answered all our questions and was eager to assist when needed. He offered wonderful dinner suggestions and prepared a nice little breakfast for us each morning. Our room was lovely and cleaned daily. The sound from room to room did travel but I think that is typical based on our other accommodations in our time in Peru. We highly recommend you stay here. This lovely accommodation is close to everything yet far enough away from the square it is a peaceful stay.

Absolutely wonderful stay. Jorge went out of his way to be helpful. Just super kind. From storing our luggage while we went to Machu Picchu for 3 days, to helping us carry multiple heavy bags up steps, to local recommendations. We can’t say enough. Great location and people. (A need breakfast was delish!!)

My wife and I spent 2 nights in Ollantaytombo at Parwa and enjoyed our stay. Jorge and his family are great hosts, the room was excellent. I'd highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Ollantaytombo. Areas for improvement: room service, bathroom shower area has a curtain but the bathroom gets fully wet after a shower. A sliding door might help. Also, lunch boxes for tourists with early tours was not provided, I have seen other hotels do that.

Had an enjoyable stay at this family run guest house. The property is well located for exploring the historical streets of Ollantaytambo and is within a 10 minute walk to the main square or entrance to the ruins. It is a 15-20 minute walk to the train station or a moto taxi is available. Facility is immaculately clean and rooms have a rustic charm. The included breakfast consisted of fresh fruit, rolls and jam with cereal and eggs also available. Breakfast was small but tasty and sufficient to start our day. The owners are wonderful people who made us feel very welcome. They were very helpful during our stay. The only negative about was lack of sufficient hot water at times. But we would definitely stay at Parea Guest House again.

Breakfast was great, with fresh warm bread, delicious fruit, juice, tea and coffee and scrambled eggs. We made great use of one of the common areas in the evening, enjoying a bottle of wine while planning our next day's adventures. An overall great stay and recommended, without hesitation!

Jorge was an amazing host and helped a lot with finding my bearings in the town.

The location was quiet as well, but very close to the central square in a way that made transportation and exploration easy.

There are so many wonderful things about Parwa Guest House. I will start by saying the owner Jorge, is so warm and welcoming. Upon arrival, he upgraded our room just because and the king bed was sooo comfy! His nephew, Mauricio, also works the bed & breakfast and he helped us book tours and day trips and even offered to be our guide for the day & what an amazing guide he was. He arranged for a taxi to drive us to each location for the whole day and he taught us so much of the history of the sacred valley. Any questions we had, they answered aptly and they made us feel like family. Jorge even helped us get a taxi to pick us up at 3am to go to the airport on our last day. All around, it was an amazing stay and Jorge and Mauricio go above and beyond to make their guests feel comfortable & like they’re home. The next time we come to Peru, we are staying at Parwa and we look forward to seeing the whole family again!

Our stay at Parwa House was excellent! Jorge was very friendly and always helpful whenever we needed anything. The view from the balcony was very pretty of the Ollantaytambo ruins. The bed was very comfortable as were the pillows. It was kept very clean as well. An easy walk to the town square from this location. Nice breakfast in the morning was a bonus!
