- Eliana (8/5): Cómodo - La ubicación -
- Carina Alejandra (6/5): - La ubicación genial Me cobraron re caro. Totalmente desconforme con el precio
- Romina (9/5): - Muy buena ubicación, a unos metros de la terminal y de la entrada al pueblo. Los colchones estaban muy bien. La ducha tenía buena presión y el agua salía bien caliente. El personal era muy buena onda. Lo único es que tal vez es poco el espacio para la cantidad de camas.

- olivier (5/5): Hôtel de Tilcara - Eau chaude dans la douche Personnel peu souriante.
Chambre manque de place, rideau au fenêtre non occultant.
Plus auberge de jeunesse que hôtel.
- Juliet.diaz (10/5): -
- Druetta (10/5): Gracias ❤️ - Excelente ubicación! El personal muy agradable y simpático, realizan buenas recomendaciones para conocer la magia de Tilcara.
Muy agradecida!
Recomiendo 💚

- Seba (1/5): - Close to the bus station, easy access. Be careful, they are overcharging on the change rate from dollar (booking amount) and pesos. They applied a change rate that higher than the official blue, and I never got the refund of the difference when I complained, that never happened to me in Argentina.
I booked the single room which was ok but didn't feel so private due to windows not properly covered. The mattress was not very comfortable and there was some noise from a party nearby until late at night. The breakfast was very minimalist, hot drinks and small pieces of bread.
I recommend going elsewhere for a single room, this place isn't worth the price.
- Carnero (5/5): -
- veronica (7/5): - La ubicación del lugar es excelente, cerca del centro y cerquisima de la terminal para conectar con otros destinos. El personal es buena onda. El tipo de literas
- Yolanda (10/5): - Lo que más me ha gustado de este hostel es TODO, la gente, la ubicación, el buen trato del personal. Éramos como una familia, no dudaría en volver. El desayuno no es nada del otro mundo, pero para el precio está muy bien.
Las literas son de 3 alturas, cuesta un poco llegar a la tercera pero si estás ágil es todo perfecto.
- Mélanie (5/5): Très rustique et manque de confort - L'emplacement est super, le personnel très gentil, et les salles de bain sont propres, ce n'est pas très cher Les chambres sont minuscules et pas très confortables : les couvertures grattent, les lits à étages n'ont pas d'échelle pour monter, et il n'y a même pas d'espace pour s'assoir sur son lit et rien pour ranger ses affaires sinon un tout petit casier à l'entrée de l'établissement. Le petit déjeuner est composé d'une sorte de biscotte seche et d'un café et la cuisine commune est inutilisable elle date d'une autre époque
- Arwen (3/5): Pas recommandé - Le lieu est bien situé, à côté de la terminal de bus, dans le centre. L’espace jardin est mimi. Personnel désagréable au possible. Sur le site il est indiqué qu’on peut payer par carte, une fois sur place ça réclame du liquide ou un virement. Mais pas de carte, et le personnel sur place VS celle avec qui on communique sur Booking n’ont pas le même discours. Lit superposé de 3 places, impossible de juste s’assoir. Vous voulez juste mettre vos affaires en sécurité ? Lockers (casiers) avec un surplus de 7000, même si vous avez votre propre cadenas. Vous souhaitez cuisiner ? Pas d’allumettes ni briquet, et quand vous demandez au personnel : ils vous disent d’aller en acheter. Groupe de 45 étudiants, qui ont fait la fête de 1h à 6h du matin. Soit un vacarme normalement pas possible après minuit, heure de calme. Autant vous dire que la nuit n’est pas si reposante, je ne comprends pas que cela soit possible. Petit dej : café thé ou lait avec 3 biscuits secs. Toilettes communes bouchées remplies de fèces. Check out 10h.
- Elysa (2/5): - Bien placé
Jolie cours intérieure Personnel très peu aimable
Pas de respect du silence, ils ont fait la fête et crié dans tous l’hôtel jusqu’à 5h du matin.. impossible de dormir.
Si vous voulez un casier il faut rajouter 7000 ars.
Cuisine sale.
- Stelmach (9/5): -
- Vanesa (10/5): - La buena onda del staff, la casa, la ubicación. Se podría mejorar la higiene de la cocina.
- Yann (8/5): -
- Emilia (7/5): Bien - El desayuno es un poco escaso, solo cafe y unos bizcochos. Las colchones de la cama no estaban en el mejor estado. La limpieza y la cantidad de los baños súper bien. El patio muy lindo tambien El desayuno y que me tiren un agua y comida que tenia en la heladera
- Emi Pereyra (10/5): Excelente - Excelente lugar. Los baños impecables. Un confort ducharte
- Mariano (10/5): -
- Нова (10/5): - I liked everything. The staff was nice, and the room and common areas were comfortable. Zero)
- Hamish (6/5): - Great staff, great location right next to the bus terminal The wifi was really really bad
- Ernesto Fabián (1/5): - Está al lado de la terminal Internet solo funciona en la entrada del establecimiento. Me pusieron en un cuarto y después de dos o tres horas me quisieron pasar a otro. Tuve que pagar 10 mil pesos más para no volver a cambiar de cuarto ...
- Nicola (10/5): -
- Lali (10/5): - Ubicación extraordinaria y el personal muy atento
- Santiago (8/5): - Cerca de todo execelente
- Gabriel (10/5): -
- Ortiz (9/5): - Ibucacion privilegiada, buen desayuno Nada para resaltare
- Wanja (7/5): -
- Antonella Chute (9/5): -
- Alba (10/5): - El personal es muy simpático y atento y las instalaciones en general están muy bien. Hay muchos baños, lavabos y zonas para comer o sentarse. Me tocó habitación con literas de 3 lo que hace la cama algo incómoda ya que el espacio entre el colchón y la cama de arriba es muy pequeño.
Aun así, estuve 4 noches y volvería sin dudarlo!
- Gaelle (1/5): - L'hostal ne respecte pas le montant de la réservation et demande un prix plus haut. Attention !!! Le prix demandé par le gérant à mon arrivée était supérieur au prix de ma réservation faite avec Booking.
Il souhaitait appliquer un taux de change propre à eux même (pas le taux officiel, ni le taux blue mais un taux plus avantageux pour eux!!!)
Après un mois en Argentine, c'est ma première fois que je me retrouvais dans cette situation.
- Ana (7/5): Ok stay - Outside areas were great, breakfast was simple, bed was fairly comfortable and location was good Staff were not friendly and not many people staying there to chat to and the rooms had triple bunk beds which aren’t always great.
- Emiliano (10/5): Agradecido al lugar - La onda de la gemte
- Fiberboy2006 (9/5): - Todo bien Todo bien
- Vanesa (10/5): - Las instalaciones, la ubicación, el excelente trato del personal Nada, estuvo todo bien!
- Corrado (8/5): - Ottima posizione tra il terminal dei bus ed il centro.
Personale molto simpatico,gentile e disponibile.
Bella atmosfera generale e buona colazione. I letti a tre piani sono scomodi e pericolosi;ad ogni piccolo movimento si rischia una testata.
Inoltre all'interno dei dormitori il wi-fi è molto debole.
- Juan Ignacio (10/5): - Muy amables con mis mascotas
- Vanina Priscila (10/5): - La cercanía a la terminal de micros , es un lugar cálido y muy bello
- Ferreyra (9/5): -
- Natalia (10/5): - muy muy amables!
- Guest (10/5): -
- Guest (10/5): - El pastel de papa que hizo Enzo, el chico de la recepción, la buena onda y atención de los chicos, muy amables la altura de distancia que hay entre las camas superpuestas, complicado para sentarte y entrar a la cama jaja
- María (1/5): - La perra que tienen. El trato del personal. Somos un grupo de 4 chicas jóvenes. El hostal estaba vacío y uno de los trabajadores decidió cambiarse de habitación a la de al lado de la nuestra, sin avisarnos antes. A la mañana siguiente nos reconoció, de manera violenta, haber estado escuchando nuestra conversacion durante toda la noche, lo que nos incomodó mucho. Se nos invitó la noche anteriora cenar en el hostel con los trabajadores, nos dijeron que cenaríamos a las 21:30 pero hasta las 00:30 no comimos, y no cenamos mas tarde gracias a que 2 de nosotras se metieron en la cocina y prepararon la mitad de la cena. A pesar de todos los inconvenientes y después de haber hecho la mitad de la cena, nos la cobraron igual. Además, este mismo trabajador nos hizo muchos comentarios de caracter machista muy desafortunados. Después de esta experiencia, nos siguió haciendo incomoda el resto de la estancia.
- Bastian (10/5): - Tiene un buen desayuno acordé al precio, me había pagado 3 noches y termine pagando 1 más porque el ambiente es tranquilo y queda cerca de la terminal de ómnibus y del centro. Una atención dedicada de parte de Enzo y Alicia. Saludos Que haya un cartel o algo más visible de que cuentan con lavarropa, porque me enteré a lo último.
- Marcelo (10/5): Excelente lugar con buena relación calidad/precio - La calidez del lugar, el buen trato, y el conocer a las personas que allí se alojan. Un especial reconocimento para las chicas del Front Desk, para Johnny (un capo), para Enzo que cocinó de maravillas. Nada que sea importante, la puertita para salir al patio de las habitaciones es muy incómoda.
- Kaito (10/5): -
- PAVEL (10/5): -
- Santos (9/5): - Una muy buena ubicación, la atención del personal muy cálida. La verdad que todas cosas positivas para decir.. excelente precio/calidad Nada
- Saar (10/5): - We hadden best wel wat was en Cami deed dit voor ons met de grootste glimlach. Verder hadden we problemen met onze huurauto. Onze band was kapotgegaan en we hadden die zelf al vervangen door onze reserveband, maar dan hadden we uiteraard geen reserveband meer over. Yoni heeft voor ons gebeld met onze autoverhuurmaatschappij en is daarbovenop meegegaan met ons naar een gomeria om ervoor te zorgen dat we een nieuwe band konden kopen. Yoni, Cami, maar ook de andere hosts waren zo vriendelijk!
- iris (10/5): - El personal super amables todos!
Siempre con sonrientes y dispuestos a ayudar y a solucionar cualquier duda.
Encima unas chicas tenias un problema con su auto alquilado y el yoni de la recepción las acompaño a la gomeria y todo.
Ubicación diez de diez
El colchon comodo
- Guest (10/5): Cosy and friendly- what a beautiful place they've built! I wish them all the best - Aw, where do I begin with this hostel. Yoni and the other volunteers made this place feel like a home away from home! I had no plans and expectations showing up but had absolutely the best time! Rooms 10/10; super cosy, beds clean with plenty of nice light and blankets to stay warm. Staff and bathroom/kitchen facilities were great, had everything I needed- it had such a cool charm to the place and is in a great location near the terminal. For the two nights I stayed Yoni was super accommodating and insisted I join for a shared dinner which we all guests pitched in and helped with. After the exhausting feeling of travel for a long time this place recharged my batteries and I was able to make some good memories with fellow guests and staff. Gracias Yoni- I wish I could've stayed longer! One thing if anything was I feel the breakfast is a little light with coffee available, and pastries with dulce de leche and marmelade- HOWEVER, that being said I feel this is super typical Argentinian breakfast fare and if anything a small piece of fruit or some extra granola I packed was more than enough extra to tie me over :)
- Matias Josue (10/5): -
- Sofia Constanza (8/5): - La onda de la gente que recepciona. Las sabanas son viejas y todo el tiempo se salen del colchón. En general falta más limpieza. La ducha de arriba, si se usa muy seguido, larga olor a podrido el desagüe
Las ventanas de las habitaciones son muy pequeñas. No entra suficiente aire.
- Guest (1/5): - Entraron en nuestras habitaciones a robarnos cosas de las mochilas. Pudimos recuperar unos cascos tras insistirle en que nos lo habian robado de la habitacion. Aparecieron mágicamente diciendo que los había encontrado una limpiadora.. nadie habia entrado a limpiar ninguna habitación y estaban metidos en un compartimento de la mochila.
- Laura (10/5): - Ubicación y desayuno La habitación no tenía llave
- Konrad (8/5): -
- Michal (6/5): -
- Leslie (9/5): Excelente ubicacion y buena onda - Todo
- Leslie (10/5): Excelente estadia, muy buena ubicacion y muy buena onda - La atencion de los recepcionistas! Jony en particular un genio!
- Floris (4/5): Disappointing -
- Zoe (7/5): Good - This hostel has a really cool vibe and very friendly staff. However, the hostel is right next to the bus station and so it is noisy and bright at all times of the day and night. There aren't any curtains to stop the bright lights from the bus station waking you up. The kitchen wasn't particularly clean - the fridge smelt and there were a lot of flies. Breakfast is very basic
- Preethi (6/5): Pleasant - Rooms too small with no space for bags to be unpacked..no lockers to keep bags. Three bunk beds with not enough room to even sit up. So you could not spend any time on the room because of not being able to sit up in bed.
- Asya (8/5): Very good - Very nice, helpful staff, very convenient location by the bus station, good indoor room to eat and hang out in...fun social scene The bunk beds and the breakfast
- Rafael (8/5): Very good -
- Karim (9/5): Could have stayed a few days longer to enjoy more of the beautiful region. - Just a few minutes from the town centre. The hostel has everything one backpacker would hope for. Great hot showers too
- Giovanni (5/5): Passable - Nice breakfast for the price, but you are asked to wash the cups and plates you use. The thin covers on the bunk beds were quite smelly. Bunk beds are of three levels, so space is tiny.
- Noémie (3/5): It's a no - Good location The windows are usless. We stayed there for a night on Saturday and we felt like we were in a nightclub all night. I don't know where was the party but it didn't stop until the morning. Impossible to sleep. We can hear everything happening from the street.
The pillows were the most uncomfortable. When you sleep (trying to) the sheets get ripped off and we had tears in a pillow case.
We also didn't get the room that we booked. Instead of a balcony and a mountain view we had no balcony, a wall view with a small window and a room so full (extra bunk bed and 3 chairs that we didn't book).
For the price I guess you can't expect a lot. But if you want to have a nice rest, forget this place.
- Paula (7/5): Good -
- Leonardo (8/5): clean and central - Clean. Simple, central, 1 minute from the bus station
- Léa (7/5): Good -
- Thibault (7/5): Good - The staff is really nice, the pets (Tierra and Andina) are so cute! The location is very good.
The breakfast is quite nice. There is free maté. They charged me a couple hundred more than what Booking.com said, which in itself is not a major problem, but in the same time, they put me in a bigger dormitory than the one I booked (8 beds instead of 6). Also they put women in the same dormitory who weren't that happy, because they booked a female room.
The dormitories are really packed with little to no room for your personal belongings.
The buck beds don't offer any space, so much that it can be difficult to climb in or even turn away.
There is no wifi in most of the hostel, and if you succeed to connect, it mostly doesn't connect to the internet, or is very very slow. Also in my room I could connect to the 4G either...
There is a club just next door, with VERY loud music all night long
- Tahnee (9/5): Superb -
- Martin (8/5): Very good - Everything good
Location perfect
Clean
Staff friendly, kind and helpful The breakfast isn’t breakfast in my opinion. Coffee and tea refill good, but the “food” is nothing, only some bread/crackers with spreads
- Alice (8/5): Very good - Really well located with great staff. Bathrooms are clean and with hot water! Triple bunk beds!!
- Paula (8/5): Very good -
- Mart (3/5): Poor -
- Davixid (9/5): Superb -
- Thomas (8/5): Very good -
- Donna (3/5): Poor - Seem a little disorganized. Average rooms, very cold in the night even though it is the middle of summer. Breakfast was a slice of bread, spread and coffee. Hardly breakfast. Left after one night and stated elsewhere for the week.
- Melis (5/5): Passable - The location was good,staff was good The kitchen and rooms were very dirty.and the staff was making noise and listening music till the morning so loudly!i couldnt sleep
- Steven (9/5): Conveniently located 200m from bus station and only a few blocks from town. Friendly knowledgable staff will help you pl - Central location , very clean and friendly staff Rooms a bit small but for the price it’s great value for money
- Guns_82 (8/5): Very good - Location, very friendly staff
- Sudhanshu (10/5): Exceptional -
- Noelie (7/5): Good -
- Takeyuki (10/5): Exceptional - Great hospitality
- Steven (8/5): Very good - Friendly staff.
Good location.
Good value for money. Basic breakfast.
- Caterina (9/5): Superb - The location is very close to the bus station, which is perfect to leave from for early day excursions or bus. It has a nice patio and the kitchen is enough for cooking.
- Julia (6/5): Pleasant - The wifi was so bad it shouldn’t have been offered.
- Clément (7/5): Good - ● Very close to the bus terminal
● Nice staff
● Overall clean ● 8 beds in such a tiny dormitory... I hardly had room for my bagpack.
● Be aware that some beds are basically 3 beds stacked. A bit acrobatic to climb there.
● Need to go outside to go to the toilets / showers, while nights are really chilly in the region
● Noisy surroundings. I stayed for 3 nights, and I had very loud music on 2 nights, starting from 2am and until 4 or something... It may be exceptional (bank holiday in Argentina) but it was definitely annoying
- Pauline (5/5): Passable - The location We were 5 people in 2 different rooms and we were not very satisfied.
We booked 2 nights but they count only one
There's a room with super high bed without any way to get there... not super safe
Not very clean
We found better in the city for cheaper
- Beatriz (8/5): Very good -
- Matilda (7/5): nice vibe but beds not comfortable at all - nice vibe, lots of (hot) showers, good location the beds were ridiculous - three beds stacked together with very little space between (and no ladder to climb to the top or barrier to stop you falling), I felt like I’d sit up in the night and hit my head
