“Great location, but very thin walls”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

The location can't be beat... just a block from all the great restaurants and Penas (folk music shows) and we had a great time. We didn't use the pool but it looked lovely and I could see that it would be a great place for families. The breakfast room is very comfortable. Also liked the secure parking lot, even if it was a little scary to get out of it (very steep driveway.)

The walls were incredibly thin. We could hear the tv and the people in the room next to us until very late at night. They did eventually quiet down so we were able to sleep, but what if they hadn't? That noise issue is the only reason why I wouldn't recommend this hotel, because everything else about it was just fine.

“A very good starting spot for the North West (Argentina)”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011

Not far from the main square (good location); good service, better rooms, nice breakfast, with limited parking (we had one every time we needed).

“On restaurant row”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 October 2011

This hotel is very well-situated for the Train To The Clouds and for wonderful restaurants and cafes, many of them with performers every night. It's a pleasant, 15-minute walk to the main Plaza. The hotel itself is comfortable and reasonable, with an above-average dining room (though the breakfast was average). My only real complaint was that you had to use a key to get out of your room. This is not a good safety feature in an emergency, particularly if you have to do it in the dark.Wifi was very slow.

“Excellent service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

This is a nice and friendly hotel in a very central location in Salta, close to all amenities. We spent three nights in total and everyone at the hotel were really helpful giving us advise on different tours. The rooms are spacious, clean and cosy. Very nice place.

“Good value, good location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2011

Rooms are basic but have all you need. Bed was comfortable, room was very clean, staff friendly. Have a parking garage, rather small but they took the car out for you if you ask and bring it by the front door. Did not eat there so I cant comment on the restaurant.
