Client comments and reviews

We loved Cachi, super nice little town and happy to be there after a long day, we wished to have more time. La Merced del Alto is a nice place, food average. - FC (December 2023)

The setting and building is incredible. The rooms are very nicely done out and the restaurant was fine and very good value. Definitely worth the drive. - CT (April 2013)

What a gem of a place! This was undoubtedly the best place we stayed. The staff were so responsive and all too ready to help. The food of good variety and quality. Both the rooms and public areas are attractive and comfortable. - AD (May 2012)

My wife adored Merced del Alto and could have stayed a week, I really liked it too, but 3 days was perfect for me! Cachi was lovely, exactly what was wanted and the journey from Salta to Cachi, which took 4 hours, was the most stunning drive. - PE (October 2011)
