Fodor's Expert Review Hotel El Lagar
20 de Febrero 877, Salta, Salta, 4400, Argentina
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
The wrought-iron door is always locked, and there's no sign to indicate there's a hotel here on this quiet street a few blocks north of the city center, but inside you'll find Salta's most exclusive—though not at all stuffy—bed-and-breakfast. Cusqueño religious art decorates the walls, and plush upholstered furniture and a cozy fireplace decorate the living room. Rooms all have canopy beds; the suite is simply magnificent.
PROS
- attentive staff, charming garden with swimming pool
- large breakfast
CONS
- a few blocks from the main plaza
- a wine cellar crying out to be used for tastings
