The clean rooms and beautiful views were a highlight. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating, providing excellent information about hikes and other activities. We even had to take a 3:00 a.m. bus, but the staff went above and beyond by packing us a delicious breakfast and leaving it for our early morning departure.

We absolutely loved our stay at Kaulem. Francisca and the front desk staff were wonderful from the start of check in to the thoughtful gift in our room for our honey moon to the tips on hikes and restaurants in town. Moreover the hotel was very comfortable, the perfect place to rest and recover after tough hikes. The complimentary breakfast was delicious (our best in Argentina!) Book now, this is truly a wonderful and reasonably priced stay!!
