La Merced Del Alto

On arrival, we were pleasantly surprised to find we had been given a huge suite. It was amazing and a shame we were only there for one night. The room was large and very comfortable. We had a delicious breakfast with freshly squeezed juice, fresh baked bread and a range of pastries. We had drinks from the bar but never ate in the hotel. We were just blown a at with the characterful charm and stunning views from every window. The hotel is very tranquil and set in a stunning location. The swimming pool and grounds are so well looked after and maintained. Cachi is an incredibly friendly place. The locals go out of their way to welcome you. If you see the pepper drying place, go in and chat with the owner. He used google translate to explain what they did there. We bought some very reasonably priced spices from him.

Fabulous position with tremendous views of the mountains. Quite a distance out of Cachi so you need a car or a taxi. Very nice grounds and a pool if it is warm enough. Lovely old colonial design with spacious bedrooms and bathrooms. Large comfy bed. Staff were very helpful. Dinner was good and a reasonable price too.

We stayed here one night in October. Lovely location above the village, prob a bit too far to walk back into (we didn't attempt it!). Our room was comfortable and clean, with bath. The wifi is OK. There is a tower with gorgeous view of the pre-Andes at sunset! The breakfast buffet was disappointing. The coffee is not good.

There was a French woman at the reception who provided the "minimum" service we would not have expected from such a luxury place. The setting is very nice with great views and a large garden with a secluded and great swimming pool. The place itself is well designed and lacks charm. Service at the restaurant was very poor. There was only one waiter and it took ages to get our food. We gave up on the desert. The French woman at the reception was still around and could have given a helpful hand.

It is located some 3 kms outside of Cachi so you need a car. On the other hand it is surrounded by a beautiful landscape and a great garden. The place is also very large and well equipped. It is all new and perfect, but misses some charm. There is a nice swimming pool which is well located in a quiet area. Unfortunately when we were there the service was average. There was a French lady at the reception who provided the minimum service. At the restaurant where we arrived at 8:00 pm we had to wait for 30 minutes to order and the food arrived around 9:45 pm. It was greatly understaffed. Food was satisfactory.

Très bel hôtel au bout d'une piste caillouteuse, en dehors de Cachi (env. 10 mn). Très beau cadre, vue 360° sur les paysages depuis le toit terrasse avec coucher de soleil magnifique. L'architecture des bâtiments et la disposition des pièces donnent l'impression d'être dans une grande hacienda. Belle chambre, spacieuse, claire; très bonne literie Piscine agréable bien que venteuse. Spa payant. Petit déjeuner buffet tout à fait correct (choix et qualité des produits proposés) Nous ne sommes pas restés diner car les prix sur leur menu étaient plutôt élevés et que la place de Cachi nous ouvrait les bras
