The staff went out of their way to ensure that my daughter and I had a great stay. The room was clean, the breakfast had good variety, and the location was steps from great dining and museums. Or room was on the corner near the square, so it was a bit noisy. But, we were still able to sleep well. I’d stay there again in a heartbeat. In fact, our flight was delayed so I ended up adding another night so that we could relax a bit. Loved this hotel. Thank you!
Spotlessly clean, very comfortable, lovely staff and the very best location. Breakfast so so.

The hotel is quite charming and well-kept. The staff is really wonderful and helpful in every respect. The location right in the center of Salta is perfect. The only thing that I did not find that great was the breakfast.

This hotel is brilliantly located on the main square. It is very old fashioned and quirky, if that’s what you are looking for great, if not you are likely to be disappointed. The rooms are very dated and quite small. Breakfast is ok, all ingredients are local, but served in a tiny upstairs room which sometimes overspills into the lounge.
The staff are very helpful. Not great value for the dated facilities

The service from everyone at the hotel was impeccable - friendly and professional. Good location right on the main square. Hotel has maintained a good part of its colonial heritage. I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The only negative is that the room was carpeted. Wooden floors would be a big improvement.

Pros: A hotel with old world charm & ambience. The room was lovely with a comfy bed & a gorgeous antique wardrobe. Spacious bathroom compared to other places we’ve stayed in Argentina. We had a nice view of the San Francisco Cathedral from the Romeo & Juliet balcony. Cons: Being so close to Plaza 9 de Julio, it was a bit noisy at night. The included breakfast was pretty average.

This property had its haydays no doubt but still very well kept. My Check In was good, but my Check Out was Outstanding! Check out was at 11am , and my flight was at 8:30 pm and the hotel allowed me use the lounge on the 2nd floor with as "many exits and reentry as needed " and to me that was a life saver. Reception also put my luggage on a safe all day for me without any extra charge, as well as arrange for a taxi ride to Airport. Thank You So Much to the reception desk staff!

Hotel is centrally located, near to everything. All most important sights are within walking distance. Breakfast was very good and staff extremely friendly and helpful. I would recommend it without hesitation. Great value for money at the time of my stay.

The building is from the 1800's and turned into a hotel in the first half of the 1900's. It's like living in a museum, but everything was top notch, immaculate, and with a great staff. I would go back anytime.

Wonderful staff, room, location and breakfast. The rooms facing the lovely plaza can be a bit loud at night, so if you’re sensitive to noise, it may bother you. Recommend!
