Amazing garden you can relax in. Room was great and lovely decorated. We loved the rustic touches like the wood ceiling and stone walls. A little tough to find but there is a sign pointing when to turn on the main road so just look for that and youll be fine.

Great small oasis off the beaten track, very quiet, kolibris in the garden. Very helpful hosts who pampered our son who had stomach problems. Only problem were their dogs who were friendly, but young German Shepherds can be overwhelming and my 11yr old son was scared of him.

Great garden and architecturally pleasing hotel
The owners were very kind and attentive people who also took very well care of the huge garden they had. It was so pleasing to have wines with appetizers sitting in the garden with hummingbirds visiting the surrounding flowers. The food they served in the restaurant also was top notch and ended up eating there all the time. Lovely place and truly memorable experience. We'd like to go back there any time!

Charming hotel in heart of Sacred Valley
Stayed here before and after a trip to nearby Machu Picchu. Took a family room for the four of us, which was budget friendly. It was like staying in the home of a friend! The room, beds, and bath were clean, comfortable and functional. The food was good and the beer was cold! A central courtyard was filled to the brim with flowers and fruit trees, hummingbirds and butterflies, cats and dogs (all very well behaved and quiet - we liked the bonus pets). Tables and chairs provide a place to sit and enjoy the beauty, with mountains as a backdrop. The inn keeper really made the stay a fun and informative experience on site in the lounge and briefly during our meals. He and his dogs led us on a very enjoyable and work out worthy hike up the mini-mountain behind the property taking us by Inca and Spanish ruins, explaining about various plants along the way. He also managed getting our transportation to and from Cusco, and a trip in between. His help in this was definitely an asset to us. We wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Value, clean, and beautiful.
Capilla Lodge is an excellent place to stay in Urubamba. It is a 4 soles, 10 min ride, on a motorcycle taxi from the bus station. The rooms are good value, but do not have televisions, if TVs are amongst your requirement. The gardens and communal areas are well kept. Chris, the proprieter helped us trek to the Salineras, via a back route, a 90 min which was enjoyable. We will choose La Capilla again.

Pleasantly surprised and permanently a big Fan!
The owners and their family are delightful. Chris/Cristof and Rhomina were delightful. The food had a European flair along with the Peruvian dishes and was delicious. Service was excellent and Chris went above and beyond to be sure we had what we needed. It was a fun, familiar, casual place. The bar was awesome. Melissa was a newcomer helping out and was just as friendly and sweet as can be. I definitely recommend La Capilla. I would be happy to attach some pix as well of the garden which was personally attended to by Chris. He made it all so easy by accepting all of our credit cards (VISA is preferred throughout most of Peru) but we had a Mastercard and he helped us arrange day trips with his car service (Julio) who took us everywhere. It was affordable and pleasant. I would have been happy staying there for a week to unwind and enjoy the local area.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Not what I had expected
The room had a lot of ants and there was no daily cleaning service. The breakfast is from 8:00 - 9:00 and the owner of the hotel was not flexible when it came to needing an earlier time due to excursions. The kitchen closed early for dinner as well, which again had no flexibility. I was not given much help when I asked about excursions. The location is definitely outside of the town, if that matters. The hotel grounds are beautiful, but the strict rules and the dirty room did not allow me to have what I thought would be a relaxing stay.

Friendly Staff and Great Accommodations
We couldn't have picked a better place to stay while we were in Peru to see the various ruins. First, the proprietors, Chris and Rhomina are first-rate individuals who aim to please. They helped us plan our trips (including ATVs and Zip Lines), scheduled taxis for us and even had medicine delivered to us when my wife had a case of "Montezuma's Revenge"--they charged us about $4 US for the medicine and the "Toot Toot" to deliver it. Second, their place is gorgeous. All the "cottages" face out onto a beautiful courtyard full of flowers, bushes and trees, with places to sit outside and enjoy a glass of wine or another cold drink from their nicely stocked bar. Third the hotel is centrally located to many of the sites you will want to see...Urubamba is a 5 minute "Toot Toot" ride that costs 5 Soles (Less than $2 US). It is a 20 minute taxi ride to Ollantaytambo, another famous site, which ranged from 10-30 Soles for a taxi ride. Finally, they provide a free breakfast that will start your day out right, as well as a menu of dinner entrees if you are there for the evening. We found this very convenient for days where we got back to the Lodge early to relax and didn't have to worry about going out just to find a place to eat. If your stay is anything like ours, you will love the sites you see in Peru and remember the two proprietors who made your stay that much more enjoyable.

Charming lodge in the Sacred Valley
It's worth going out of your way to stay at this place. It's located a bit away from the town center, but since transportation is extremely cheap and convenient, the location isn't an issue. What you get is a quiet location and a beautiful setting. The owner was very helpful in providing advice and tips about the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu. There's a restaurant and bar on-site. They also stock other Peruvian beer besides Cesquena. Breakfast was also provided. They are also eco-friendly. We did laundry but keep in mind that it's dried outdoors if you're in a rush. We were traveling as a group and booked the largest room. There's a queen on the lower floor and three beds on the upper floor of our room. Even with the four of us, it was still very roomy. We only stayed one night, but wished we'd stayed here for at least two given that they're centrally located in the Sacred Valley. If you want to explore the towns and ruins in the Sacred Valley such as Moray, Pisac, and Ollantaytambo, this hotel is a very good choice before heading to Machu Picchu.

This is a jewel of a place.
We stayed at La Capilla for four nights and were delighted from start to finish with our room and the service. The living units are within a high-walled compound and we felt very secure, Units front on a lovely garden with a fountain. The owner-managers are very helpful in arranging local transportation and providing guidance as needed. The included breakfasts were excellent. We also ate dinner in the restaurant all four nights and were never disappointed.

Situated just outside the village, this lodge is an amazing place: nicely decorated rooms, very quiet, around a garden, very friendly French hosts. We dined there and the food was just amazing. Very good value for money and highly recommended for anyone who intends to stay somewhere in the valley. Worth staying longer for treks in the mountains too.

Incredible place and people!!
What a fantastic hotel I stayed for 10 days and used it as a base to explore Sacred Valley/Machu Picchu. It was an oasis of calm with stunning gardens and seating areas to relax in. The rooms were extremely comfortable and clean. The owners were incredible, making me feel completely at home and offering help and advice on what to visit and how best to travel around Sacred Valley. The food was delicious and the Alma pub onsite, a fantastic place to wind down at the end of the day. All in all I definitely recommend La Capilla Lodge.

Feels like a great B&B
Can't recommend this place enough if you're staying in Urubamba. Just a really warm and friendly place, and the owners, Chris and Rhowena, are great. They are super helpful with setting up any tours, rides, recommendations and not to mention, they fix a mean Pisco Sour! Feels more like a B&B, with a nice central backyard and home style kitchen. Probably overall the best place we stayed in Peru, factoring in our desire for peace, quiet and a good home base to explore the Sacred Valley.

Amazing B&B - A hidden gem in Sacred Valley
Our family of four (including two boys under 10) stayed in La Capilla for three nights in June 2015 to acclimate altitude before we took the 4-day-3-night Inca-Trail trek from Ollantaytambo to Machu Picchu. The lodge is really a B&B - not a deluxe hotel but very quiet, clean, and with comfortable beds. Its owner, Chris, is friendly, hard-working, and very accessible via emails. He is kind of person you want to make friend with. During our stay, Chris has kindly arranged Taxi to pick us from airport, and also to take us to local destinations in Sacred Valley. Chris also offered detailed instructions how to use local transportation (much much cheaper than Taxi) and indeed to travel like locals. In Capilla, the complimentary and delicious breakfast is normally served by a local lady chef. On the checking-out morning, we needed to have an early breakfast so to catch our Inca trail trek. Chris very kindly volunteered to get up early and prepared us the early breakfast !! Capilla Lodge is an ideal place for anyone to stay in Sacred Valley and I highly recommended it. By the way, Chris' French restaurant (Los 2 Lokos) in 'downtown' Urubamba is now ranked as top #1 choice on tripadvisor. Don't miss it !

Amazing!
We loved staying at La Capilla. Initially, we did not realize we were so far away from Cusco. That turned out to be a good thing! We visited 3 ruins in one day, as they were close by. The next day we traveled to Macchu Picchu. Christophe, Romina and Beatrice were amazing hosts. Great meals, wonderful atmosphere and BEAUTIFUL.
