Client comments and reviews

Open QuoteThe Hotel Altiplanico was very good although I thought the food was very expensive for what you got.  Other nights we ate at Blanco where the food was good and then at Cafe Piedra where they served the best chilli con carne I have ever had. Good pisco sours too!Close Quote - TB (November 2010)
Open QuoteHotel Altiplanico was delightful and huge fun. When we had rain, the water came through the roof in the restaurant and started to dissolve the adobe on the walls! The food there was also very good and the sandwiches fantastic. All trips from here excellent.Close Quote - JM (March 2009)
Open QuoteThe Altiplanico hotel was high class, simple and comfortable. Although we intended to go into town for dinner we never achieved it. After an early start and a hard long day we always settled for the very acceptable, home cooked fare in the hotel.Close Quote - DW (March 2007)
