Two times we asked for a price-qoute on a taxi service. Both qoutes were unreasonably expensive. When leaving for Pachar (small village near Ollantaytambo) we got a qoute of 45 soles. I had previously asked a taxi driver in Urubamba how much it should be - maximum 20 soles he replied. We found a taxi ourselves, which was very easy, and paid 20 soles. Either they use the most expensive taxi service in Urubamba or take a comission for making the call. Either way it's ridiculous! We have stayed in other hotels in the Sacred Valley, but we have never experinced over-prices like that in any other places. Calling a taxi on behalf of tourists is a fairly basic service that should always be free. At least in a hotel where you have already paid a decent amount for the accomodation itself. Another minor thing. One evening we had dinner in the on-site restaurant. We had ordered three soups which we were told would be ready in 20 minuted. After approximately 40 minutes two soups arrived. The last one never came, and when we went and asked the kitchenstaff they looked at the order-note and realized they had forgotten something. Not a big deal, those things happen - I have worked in a kitchen myself. I do however feel an apology would have been appropriate.
