The main gate of Machu Pichu is about 8km from AC. It is an uphill road and there are buses that leave every 15 minutes or so. Costs about US $6.00 one way, kinda pricey..There are many many hotels/hostels in AC. I stayed at Gringo Bill's, which I would not recommend, but a friend of mine stayed at Hostal La Cabana. She was extremely happy with that one. In August, I would suggest booking ahead of time.
