Sanctuary lodge, not all that it is cracked up to be.

Perhaps the most sought after hotel in Peru. The closest to Machu Picchu and walkable in the early morning to catch the sunrise.  Concept sounds good,in fact the concept sound down right romantic and over the top,... BUT...the 30  rooms are tiny, the restaurant is over crowded, the area is dead quite at night as anyone who is not staying here has been shepherded onto the buses, Rooms are way over priced, and in the morning to see the sunrise you need to be out and about by 5am to beat the buses loaded with hikers coming up the mountain .Having prepared yourself for the best experience at a vast cost  no one can do anything about those clouds that obliterate the views.
