Attentive
and lovely, this polished Swiss-German lodge wouldn't look out of place in the Alps. Nice
touches include air purifiers and complimentary tea and fruit, as well terraces with sweep-
ing views. Couples should note there are very few matrimonial beds.

Atocsaycuchi 647; d/tr S130/207; )
Warm and super-
cozy, with plenty of B&B-style luxury comfort touches, Madre Tierra is a vine-entwined,
slightly claustrophobic little jewel box. Rooms have skylights and funky dimensions.
Good value.
