“Perfect for short stay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 March 2010

HOTEL BALCARCE : This small, immaculate hotel, decorated with local crafts, was located on the main restaurant/peña street, just right for meandering. The bedrooms were small (little place to unpack) but quiet with very good beds, air-conditioners, TVs and excellent bathrooms. The price was good @ US$85.00 with a fine breakfast. At least one person on the staff spoke English at any time, and they were all delightful and helpful. I was charmed.

“Friendly and efficient service, clean and comfortable, in a lively street slightly off the central Plaza.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2009

Very friendly and helpful English-speaking staff, who fixed up the rest of our seven night stay for us. Modern, clean and comfortable rooms, with a swimming pool in a courtyard off the restaurant/breakfast room. The street, Balcarce, is interesting with many cafes and penas (live folk music) at the top end (away from the hotel) and sometimes stalls selling local craft. Friday and Saturday nights can be extremely noisy, as the Argentine love their night-life, which is not a problem if you join in.

“Very nice hotel with very friendly service”

This is a very nice hotel, at walking distance (10 minutes) of the central Plaza in Salta. In the street, there is a nice restaurant and various bars. The hotel itself has comfortable rooms with spacious bathrooms and a nice breakfast buffet. Service is very good: the staff is very friendly. i recommend this hotel to everyone who plans to visit Salta!

“Friendly little gem”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 April 2009

My wife, two children (13 & 17 ) and myself stayed in this hotel for two nights in april this year. We found it to be clean, quite, comfortable and very easy to relax in. The staff, espically the reception staff, went out of their way to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable, they reccomended tours and restaurants and made any arrangements that we required. If you are used to european four or five star luxury then you may be a bit disapointed with this hotel, but that's your expectations and not the fault of the hotel. Rooms, like most hotel rooms in Argentina, tend to be a bit on the small side but were clean with air conditioning tv and opening windows. They have a nice comfortable seating area at reception where you can relax,wait for the taxi they have just called for you or simply watch the world go bye. If we ever get back to Salta we would have no hesitation staying here again.
