Wolf Totem Steam Punk Guesthouse features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Pisac. Offering a bar, the property is located within 33 km of Wanchaq Train station. The property is non-smoking and is set 25 km from Pukapukara.

Qenko is 29 km from the hostel, while Sacsayhuaman is 31 km away. Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport is 29 km from the property. This is by far one of the most interesting hostels I've ever stayed in. The castle on the hill is magical and the view is unbeatable. The food is very good and there's alcohol and n/a beverages available. It's an amazing space to meet other travelers and socialize in the awesome surroundings of the Pisac mountains. Beds are comfortable and the showers have hot water. You can tell the owner and operator has worked hard to curate this experience.
