Loved Ollantaytambo and spent several days there. It's a very small village with very friendly people and it was fun to hike the area and just hang out in the village. The ruins were also worth seeing.
Had lunch and drove thru Urubamba so I can't comment on what its like to stay there.

Personally, i would stay in Cusco for New year's eve - its a fascinating cultural event and the Plaza de Armas is filled with people.
Do a google search for "new years eve in cusco" you should come up with pictures and descriptions.
If you want to stay in a sacred valley town, Ollanta is lovely, Urubamba is less tourist-oriented.
