Perfect location for a relaxing few days! The hotel is beautifully located among the hills of Cachi. The views from every window are stunning. The ride today to town is about 7 minutes. Service was good and the meals at the restaurant were very good. We scheduled a massage upon arrival and that was great. The rooms are spacious and comfortable but bring your own toiletries. It would be great if these included lotion and better hair products. Everything else was very good.

Great little retreat
We booked for one night during our trip. The hotel building is very tastefully restored with nice comfortable rooms. The pool was nice, but a little windy which was the sacrifice for the wonderful views! Food and drinks were reasonably priced and the staff were all excellent. We wished we had time to stay another night!

It was calm, serene, quiet and peaceful. At 19.00 the bar area was empty, silent, tomb - like. We ordered two lovely glasses of wine and sat there in the silence enjoying the moment as the thunder tumbled in the mountains. At 20.00 the lights were switched on in the restaurant and we entered to a hushed area with one other couple at a table - so we talked in whispers. Food and wine were good - but don’t come here for the atmosphere which is non-existent. But for one night, a calm and peaceful retreat!

peaceful and elegant
beautiful, peaceful place about 30 min walking distance from Cachi town. The surrounding mountains are snow covered in summer. There is nothing around the hotel other than unspoilt nature. The hotel is in 2 floors and looks like it would have been a Hacienda in the good old days. High ceilings, tasteful interior decorations and tiled floors. Rooms have radiators, so I guess it gets very cold in the winter months. There is a spa and a pool, both of which are 50-60 meters from the rooms. Food is excellent and the bar is open whole day. Dinner only starts at 8pm – which is early by Argentinean standards. There is ample car parking. There is no minibar and the rooms are basic, no TV, comfortable large bed (over 6 x 6 feet). The breakfast was reasonable – scrambled eggs, fruits, tea, coffee and sweet bakes (like in the rest of Argentina)

Great Boutique Hotel
We had a great visit in Cachi. The hotel is difficult to get to since we drove from Cafayate to Cachi on a dirt road for 120 miles and took us 6 hrs to complete. The premises are well appointed and very peaceful place to rest or go out and enjoy the outdoors. Breakfast was very simple with pastries, cereal, coffee and bread. Overall a great stay.

Perfect hotel atop a hill: great morning views
A very accommodating hotel staff at a pretty new, but 'old' looking hotel. It gave us the idea of a Spanish paradore hotel. Nice decorations, large rooms (sometimes connecting doors) and huge, firm beds. Parking at the hotel's grounds. We'd the best meal during our Argentina holiday at La Merced del Alto. The waitress told us her English was not good, but it was superb and we didn't need the dictionary to translate all dishes. Homemade products and fresh orange juice at breakfast as well. In the lobby there's a seating area for adults as well as for the younger ones. As we planned to go to Tilcara not via Salta but by taking RN 40, the hotel staff went beyond by checking with the police whether the road was safe to drive (because of ice/snow). If you have a 4WD and need to go north, be adventurous and take this beautiful mountain road. Overall a great experience in Cachi!
