Cafayate hotels

Pros: A nice little place to stay with a perfect location the the main square, shops, restaurants and bars. The room was large and comfortable. The view is not from the window but from the walkway outside the room. The breakfast was ok. Mostly pastries and bread with homemade jam. No fruit or the typical meat/cheese option. Coffee was good. Staff were friendly. Good value.

Pros: Excellent location and breakfast. Francisco treated us like family.

Pros: The owner is such a friendly, nice guy who made us feel very welcome. He gave recommendations for the area and even shared some beer and wine with us. The breakfast is wonderful, with fresh fruit and nice bread rolls/croissants. Highly recommended!

Pros: Lovely people, great small hotel which was very clean with nice sized rooms. Location is great, right around the corner of some bodegas. Breakfast with fresh fruit and bread that was very nice and moist, not dry like in a lot of other places. Definitely worth the money!

Pros: Kallpa Hostel is an absolut super place to stay in Cafayate. Staff is great, help you wherever they can; breakfast is very tasty, rooms are super comfortable and location is great! Gracias por todo ;)!

Pros: The whole building is beautifully peaceful and tranquil. Our double room was spotlessly clean and had a very comfortable large double bed. We had a nice balcony over the street. Breakfast is simple but enjoyable - fruit juice, fresh fruit salad, bread and pastries. The location is on a quiet side street only 2 minutes walk from the main square. The lady who does the breakfasts is very pleasant.

Cons: Smell of drains in our bathroom. The room is a reasonable size but not massive and it’s a bit cramped with all the furniture. The two chairs are not of any great use and could be removed. Equally, the balcony would benefit from some small chairs to enable you to use it to full benefit. The room is advertised with balcony but you can only stand out there.

Pros: Peaceful but within a stones throw of everything

Cons: Breakfast was a bit basic with not enough butter or jam

Pros: Good breakfast.

Pros: Very well located next to the main square. Bed was very comfy and the owner very friendly and helpful!

Pros: Location, facilities, comfort, views, fab breakfast

Cons: It could have had a gym

Pros: Incredible location overlooking mountains and vineyards. Very hospitable staff and lovely food in the restaurant for lunch and dinner.

Pros: Delicious food and quiet, beautiful location in a vineyard. The staff are great, speak both English and Spanish and are very helpful. It's a short taxi drive to the main plaza from the location, which is at the end of a dirt road.

Pros: Very clean and comfy room. The staff was really friendly. Excellent wine and food.

Cons: It’s a bit out of the center. You need a car.

Pros: Spacious room, fantastic view, nice staff, great pool

Pros: Nice place. Big and spacious rooms. Nice view

Cons: The balcony furnitures could be nicer

Pros: Great View and location & the staff was really friendly and kind. Also, the food at the restaurant was amazing

Cons: The tiles of the pool where not clean and the floor was sliding. Also, the property ran out of electricity for an hour without any alternative.

Pros: Beautiful property, friendly staff, large comfortable rooms; delicious breakfast & restaurant. Bonus wine tasting/tour from vineyard next door.

Cons: Not much - onsite massage seemed brief & not very strong.

Pros: Beautiful property and wonderful staff

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: The hotel itself is beautiful, the pool area is really nice. The rooms are clean and spacious. For the price, it’d be hard to find a better hotel.

Cons: The quality of the service is not really up to par(given how nice the hotel is), for example, we asked twice about taking cooking classes with the chef and never got a response. The restaurant is also not that good given the price.

Pros: Great pool. Lovely meal in restaurant.

Cons: Service was a little slow for a good hotel

Pros: The service was outstanding. Attention to details was magnificent. Hugo was an exceptional host.

Pros: The hotel was a great place to rest and relax for a few days. We all enjoyed the short horseback ride through the vineyard. Food and beverage was very tasty at all meal periods from breakfast through dinner. Rooms we had were spacious, comfortable and very clean.

Cons: The pool was a nice size and great temp for swimming and cooling off on a hot day. It could have been kept a little cleaner, the steps and sides felt very slippery, like there was more algae than we are used to in most pools.

Pros: Everything was so perfect! Amazing location, so quiet and peaceful. Beautiful surroundings. Very comfortable rooms, beautifully decorated and super friendly staff. Great breakfast with handmade products. They have thought of every little detail to make your stay amazing. We were so happy we extended our stay.

Cons: It's a bit far from Cafayate, so if you want to be close to the centre, don't stay here

Pros: The stay at la vaca tranquila was just so relaxing! Located about 30 min car ride from Cafayate, everything was so calm. Unfortunately we stayed for only one night, however, it was not a problem at all to spend some time after checkout in the common area. Breakfast with cheese, yoghurt etc. directly from the farm was delicious. This really is a perfect location for some days of relaxing!!

Pros: the owners threats everybody like an individual. They know when to leave you alone and when to give information. you have a kitchen with fridge, water kettle, salt, pepper....at your service. Rooms are nicely decorated. good eye for detail. important: it is very quiet. nice breakfast included with real coffee

Pros: It is place is an absolute delight. We stayed one night but wish we would have stayed longer. The surroundings are beautiful and there is a really peaceful feel to it. The pool is great and the breakfast is freshly made and delicious. The owners are also lovely people and they make their own beer. Book now!

Pros: Goats and farm animals Fun typical breakfast

Pros: The Vaca Tranquila is a real paradise! Great comfort, beautiful and big rooms, super helpful staff, peaceful environment and delicious breakfast (especially the home-made yogurt!). The horse-back riding tour was really nice too.

Cons: A little bit far from Cafayate when we don't have a car, but it is still very easy to find a cab and to share one, so it is not a big inconvenient.

Pros: San Carlos and La Vaca Tranquila are an absolute refuge of peace, tranquility, and authenticity on the edges of slightly dumpy Cafayate. The property owners live on site, which means the maintenance and feel of the entire site is top notch. The surrounding areas make you feel like you're on a working farm, and the town of San Carlos is possibly the most authentic and charming town we came across in our long journey across the Northwest of Argentina. Breakfast excellent, and the pool a real treat.

Cons: San Carlos lacks one thing: a passable restaurant. If someone opened a good restaurant in San Carlos, and you didn't have to take the unpredictable Ruta 40 to Cafayate for dinner every night, this place would be a dream. Either self-cater if you stay here (there are facilities to do so) or make sure you have a designated driver for the 30-min trip back. Would be great if the property could arrange a shared taxi service to and from the property at dinnertime (say, leaving at 8:30pm, returning at 11pm) that guests could join.

Pros: La vaca tranquila is an amazing farmhouse located in a gorgeous valley with breathtaking mountains views. The room we stayed at was very big with a comfy bed and a beautiful bathroom with a bathtub. Esteban made our stay even more special thanks to his kindness, warm hospitality and his passion for the place. He even gave us a private tour of the in-house brewery ! Try their beers out, they are very tasty and there is a story behind each of them ;) In the morning, we woke up to beautiful and peaceful views along with a delicious homemade breakfast ! We highly recommend this place to make your stay around Cafayate even more special. Thanks again Esteban for your amazing hospitality !

Cons: That we only stayed one night :)

Pros: This is a great 'middle' option between the up and coming high end resorts and the hostels in town. Rooms are big and spacious, service is friendly, grounds are beautiful.

Cons: Would be great to have non bread or sweet breakfast option - maybe just some hard-boiled eggs. And the rooms need a little TLC to deal with moldy smell. But overall, terrific choice!

Pros: Great brothers who run the place - Amazing location and we really liked the home made cakes and jams - a really personal touch.

Pros: The hotel is very well situated, few blocks from the square and from many bodegas. It was really clean, the breakfast really good (yummy homemade jam by the mother), beautiful garden where we could relax and the pool was a big plus on the hot days we had. The owner was so nice and helpful, we really recommand this place!

Cons: Nothing, everthing was as described and even better!

Pros: A lovely family owned hotel - la Mama does amazing cakes for breakfst and there are homemade marmalades & jellies. The pool and garden are just incredible!

Cons: We cannot think of anything!

Pros: Wonderful staff, nice refreshing pool and homemade breakfast.

Pros: The two brother owners were really friendly and welcoming and hotel is in an ideal location for walking to the town but far enough to be quiet. Delicious breakfast and lovely garden and pool too.

Cons: Nothing although the bathroom is a bit dated.

Pros: Nice People at the desk

Pros: Grace Cafayate is an example for many other hotels and resorts. The staff is pro-active with respect to the needs of the guests. All staff is genuinely friendly.

Pros: Fantastic hotel! The vineyard view is stunning , staff is kind and really comfortable room. The pool are beautiful and clean. We had a wonderful experience!

Pros: The room where spacious and well designed, the personal was adorable and effective and the site is wonderful.

Cons: I booked 3 activities while staying at Grace and it was a disaster. The first activity was a blind wine tasting, we arrived at the winery which was more a house where the underground was set up with some plastic vats and wine was made artisanal there. Although the hosts were wonderful and the wine tasting was nice the price : 60 US$ PER PERSON was definitely NOT worth the wines and activity. You should much rather do some wine tasting on your own and pay 1/10 of the price. The wine tasting was OUTRAGEOUSLY expensive for the prestations and the winery in question. The second activity was a horse ride which was wonderful but the hotel forgot? To tell us that we had to pay by cash there and since we didn’t have any cash, the hotel charged us a good extra while checking out. The third activity was the cooking class which they forgot about. Although I have to say that they apologized wonderfully offering us a bottle of wine and some empanadas, thanks! I would also add that the restaurant is overpriced for the prestation, you’ll find some much nicer food and wine for the same value in the center. To conclude, i recommend grace for their nice rooms, services and personal but would not recommend taking your activities with them(overpriced and poorly organized).

Pros: Fantastic rooms with a great big bath.

Cons: No shade at the pool. They had some poor quality umbrellas but had to be taken down due to a bit of wind. Too hot to sit out without any shade.

Pros: Amazing villas, amazing staff, great food and good value

Cons: Everything

Pros: -Staff is very relaxed and nice -Rooms were very simple but clean -3 minutes walking from the main Cafayate square -Rooms have air conditioning

Cons: -Rooms facing the street are a little noisy -Breakfast could be a little more various -No shelves in the bathroom

Pros: Nice and helpful staff.

Cons: Breakfast can be better.

Pros: Our room was on the ground floor directly on the street with a separate entrance. Everything was clean and the shower nice and hot. The small breakfast was very relaxed and varied. We even got a 2 bedroom apartment, even though we thought all beds were in one room.

Cons: The wifi was unfortunately kind of slow.

Pros: Very friendly owners, good breakfast, and very clean and spatious rooms. Great value for money!

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: • Patricia was so friendly and helpful on arrival. • We were given a choice of the rooms available. • Hot shower and clean bathroom. • Lovely courtyard. Was able to sit outside and watch the downpour without getting wet.

Cons: • Nothing. This was such a great hotel!

Pros: Nice patio, towels and soap, hot water, good location next to the main square.

Cons: Price. It is quiet expensive considering rather modest breakfast options and no pool. They do not accept payment by card, but I was informed just after booking, so it is quite ok, you can prepare.

Pros: Very nice people .all clean .good breakfast .quit area .close to main plaza .perfect place to be

Pros: Great host...nice house setting

Pros: comfortable beds, super clean, nice shower; livia‘s english is great and she welcomed us warmly!! location is perfect, private parking spot; good breakfast!

Cons: N/A

Pros: The host has been so far the most hospitable in our trip. She was the only who spoke in a proper English with us, welcomed us really warmly and, remembering that it was our honeymoon, even prepared a little surprise in our bedroom. We really had a good time at this place and we recommend it to everybody who is going to enjoy the special town of Cafayate!

Cons: -

Pros: One block from the main square...very helpful host. Allowed a late checkout which was really appreciated. Highly recommend.

Pros: Friendly owner, good location , quiet room

Cons: WiFi was slow

Pros: We stayed here for 3 nights and absolutely loved it. Livia could not have been more caring. She went the extra mile on everything from the very moment that we arrived. She even called her hairdresser to make an appointment for my wife and then drove her there and returned to pick her up on the afternoon that we arrived. She has shown an incredible amount of generosity. The room and bathroom are tastefully decorated, spotless and most comfortable. We had the room at the back which was very quiet. A memorable stay and highly recommended.

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: Livea our host was so friendly and helpful. We were rather embarrassed because we didn't speak any Spanish but Livea was so fluent in English that conversation flowed with ease. The welcoming nature of La Tranquera made this property exceptional.

Cons: The walls were a bit thin so soundproofing would probably enhance the overall experience.

Pros: Location and atmosphere.

Cons: Every was great.

Pros: The hotel was located just off the main square, and close to wineries, craft shops and restaurants. The staff were friendly, efficient and helpful. You could take breakfast in the dining room or outside in the patio. The room was comfortable and had everything you could need.

Cons: It was all very comfortable

Pros: Great place- it was one of the highlights of the whole trip. Really clean, friendly and quiet.

Cons: If the reception staff was a little more knowledgeable about the village activities

Pros: Beautiful hotel in the centre of Cafayate. Rooms are super cute and the inner courtyard is to die for!

Pros: Excellent a block from the main square. Highly recommend staying in town rather than at a more distant wine resort for the restaurant options. The staff were super helpful, the place clean and pleasant.

Cons: The service at breakfast was a little slow, and the breakfast options were nothing special (fairly standard Argentine hotel breakfast, including the so-so coffee). There was a little noise from the central patio when groups / families were there, but not too bad.

Pros: Very spacious comfortable rooms. Friendly staff.

Cons: Breakfast was limited and basic. The windows had bars on them.

Pros: Beautiful hotel in a central part of Cafayate - less than a block from the main square. Staff don't speak much English but were very friendly and always available to help. The pool area is lovely and had a staffed bar for good cocktails. Breakfast is very good and the rooms incredibly spacious and clean (we had a pool view which was lovely and quiet). Some of the best hotel amenities we encountered in Argentina - seems like far much more than a 3-star hotel.

Cons: Everything was great.

Pros: Great location. Right in the middle of the city. Spacious rooms. Comfortable bed. Big bathroom

Cons: Many of the rooms seem to face an inside patio rather than the outside which means the rooms are rather dark and mellow. Our A/C wasn’t able to cook the room satisfactorily.

Pros: Good breakfast.

Cons: The rooms with street view are extremely noisy. The pool is not heated at all.

Pros: Nice comfortable hotel, lovely yard and pool. In town so convenient to restaurants, wineries.

Pros: Swimming pool, helpful staff, hacienda style

Pros: The swimming pool area

Cons: It's average

Pros: Spacious and bright room, well apointed bathroom. Nice outdoor space with beautiful swimmingpool and lots of seating options. Centrally located and professional staff.

Cons: Set right in the town center which means rooms facing the street are noisy at times. When the hotel is well booked there's not enough space in the breakfast room for all guests.

Pros: The hotel is 1 block away from the town square. Perfect location

Pros: Great location, large rooms, perfect for a few days in Cafayate.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: A great location almost directly across from the main square. Parking available.

Cons: Breakfast was basic, secure parking was provided but tight.

Pros: Beautiful property, clean and comfortable rooms. Fantastic location. Nice coffee at breakfast.

Cons: Shower took several minutes to give warm water. Breakfast starts only at 8AM - so missed out on certain sightseeing opportunities. These were not deal breakers though - I would still recommend this place.

Pros: Good location and private parking.

Cons: It was raining during the afternoon and night and the roof was so bad that water was leaking in our room. The walls and floor were all very wet and we had our luggage on bed.

Pros: Location. Cleanliness.

Cons: After 10pm nobody at front desk

Pros: We loved this small hotel so close to the main square of Cafayate. The rooms are off a central courtyard where you can sit and read or catch up with family and friends online. Good wifi. It’s very well situated, and very very clean and comfortable. The staff are friendly and polite. Breakfast is in the cafe downstairs - fruit salad and pastries. The hotel has a really nice feel to it. Very good value for money. We’d return very happily if we were ever back in the area.

Pros: - breakfast is served in the cafe - real coffee and fresh croissant! - very well maintained hotel, with cute patio and clean swimming pool

Cons: - rooms are a bit outdated compared to the rest of the hotel, especially the bathroom. However for two nights and for the price it was ok - they say they have a parking but actually there are only two spaces and we could not use it for our stay. We had the impression that it was used by the staff. However we could easily park in front of the hotel in the street

Pros: The coffee was good

Cons: Pillows could have been softer

Pros: A lovely place, with all comforts and great value for money. The lady who runs it is wonderful and took great care of me and the breakfast was simply amazing.

Pros: The backyard is huge with great view of the mountains... quite place.

Cons: ---

Pros: Great staff, nice garden.

Pros: Good location, nice garden, bathroom was clean

Cons: Room was very hot, breakfast was nothing, bed sheet got off the mattress during sleeping

Pros: Really beautiful garden to hang out in with different areas, that was the best part of the hostel. The location is 10-15 minute walk from the bus terminal and less than 5 minute walk to the main square. Staff provided a map of the town & suggested places to go.

Cons: No air conditioning so it got very hot at night. No lockers in the rooms. Like everywhere in Argentina the WiFi would drop in and out but generally worked. There is also currently construction happening next door, which would start at 7am every morning. Regardless, I did like this hostel and would stay again.

Pros: stuff was sooooo nice, I enjoyed my stay there so much. the surrounding of cafayate is amazing, the wine and goat cheese too. I would definitely come back. the stuff cooked nearly everyday some food so you could eat real Argentinian dishes for low budged. there were often people (stuff and guests) who made music... really nice. you can chill in the garden pretty good too. bed and room was confy.

Cons: breakfast was really basic

Pros: place was really nice

Cons: wifi not working very good

Pros: Friendly staff, clean and comfortable room, beautiful patio and great location.

Cons: Everything was great.

Pros: If you're looking for a simple dorm bed to sleep for the night, it's a good idea comparing to the price.

Cons: The attitude of the manager was not professional and actually pretty rude, not sure why. The showers have not fixed or heavily cleaned in a while, so it's very basic
