El Cortijo Hotel Boutique

Very well presented with nice materials in the construction and the overall effect was very attractive. There are a lot of common seating areas and a small swimming pool which was warm but hardly enough for 2 people at once. Our room was number 10 and was quite small. The bed seemed very short (though wide) and had a very heavy duvet type thing on. The windows did not cut outside noise at all and there was a party of 6 very noisy people in the hotel all taking loudly at once in the common areas. Once they were quiet there were a lot of noisy dogs at the property next door. You needed the AC to mask the noises. The shower was very good however. There was a safe in the room but no minibar. Breakfast was pleasant, there was a good fruit salad plus whole fruits, scrambled egg plus the usual cheese and ham. There was fresh natural yoghurt - a rarity here but coffee was the usual very weak brew in an urn. We took dinner in the restaurant and we thought the food was very nicely done, a little bit different without being particularly expensive. The local Cachi Malbec was very good. Not too far to walk into the town centre.

A charming boutique hotel in a so cute and autentique village in northern Argentina. Great breakfast, dinner, ambient and service. The people are lovely. It's a five star experience that I can only recommend to everybody to experience. Don't miss it if you go that way.

El Cortijo is a lovely spot to stay in Cachi. It is just a short walk from the center of town. Upon entering, you feel like you are in a special sanctuary far from anywhere. The view from our room was amazing. We had a small private deck just outside the room that looked out to the Andes. The room was very comfortable and clean. Furnishings were rustic and appropriate to the place and time. Loved the small window in the shower! The public spaces really shine. We loved sitting in the courtyard or patio and eating a snack or having a drink. The small pool area is magical. Beautiful gardens as well. Service was good. Breakfast was typical for Argentina. We ate dinner at the adjacent restaurant as well. Food was very good and it was a relaxing atmosphere.

We stayed for 1-night in a superior double room at the El Cortijo Hotel Boutique in Cachi ($189 Can). The hotel is located just above the main town centre in a quiet residential area. It stretches back on a relatively narrow property from an unassuming entrance, passing first through the lobby (with a nice sitting area), then into a peaceful place, with an open atrium with the restaurant on the left and the rooms on the right, seating areas on the patio, then onto another patio to a small pool with additional sitting areas. Our room was large and comfortable, with rustic white-washed walls and log roof rafters, dark wood door lintels, a comfortable queen bed with side tables, chair and wood chest – very much in keeping with the gaucho vibe. There were a couple of shelves for clothes, a safe, but no TV or mini-refrigerator. The bathroom was down 3-steps (dicey at night), with a large shower, strangely with a wood floor but plenty of hot water. The restaurant had good meals – our dinner cost $15 US for two, including a couple of drinks. Breakfast was fine, with baked items, fruit cocktail, ham and cheese, scrambled eggs. The hotel was located 6-7 blocks from the central plaza, a short car ride or a longer walk. The nearest mini-market was at the plaza. Overall, a pleasant surprise in a small, interior Argentine town.

What a wonderful place! The room was excellent, with a die for view, the facilities are fantastic and the staff are delightful. The hotel is a small quaint offering with rooms on 2 floors-we had a room on the upper floor out of which we had the most glorious views of the Andes from both windows. The bed is positioned perfectly to get that view! There was a very modern bathroom too. The hotel is also located really well. Would definately stay there again.
