In-Depth Information
The boutique hotel boom hasn't yet hit Humahuaca, which keeps it real with cheap
family-run accommodations and a couple of midrange hotels. Prices given are for sum-
mer; they rise for Carnaval and drop for the rest of the year.
Hostal La Soñada
GUESTHOUSE $
( 421228;

;
San Martín s/n; r AR$320; )
Just across the tracks
from the center, this is run by a kindly local couple and features spotless rooms with col-
orful bedspreads and good bathrooms. Breakfast is served in the attractive common area,
and guests are made to feel welcome.
La Humahuacasa
HOSTEL $
( 15-412-0868;
www.humahuacasa.com.ar
;
Buenos Aires 740; dm/d AR$80/250; )
Artistic
and welcoming, this is central and offers appealingly cozy dorms around a small patio.
It's an involved, social place with a decent kitchen and a good vibe about it.
Posada La Churita
GUESTHOUSE $
( 421055;
http://posadalachurita.webege.com
; Buenos Aires 456; r per person AR$100)
Run by
warm-hearted and motherly Olga, this is one of a few unheated cheapies on this street. In
theory the rooms - spick and span, with individual beds - are dorms, but you may well
get one to yourself. Shared bathrooms are clean and hot water reliable. Guests have use
of the kitchen and a common area.
Hostería Naty
GUESTHOUSE $
( 421022;
www.hosterianaty.com.ar
; Buenos Aires 488; s/d AR$240/270; )
In the heart of
town, this has friendly management and rooms of varying shapes and sizes at a fair price.
The ones around the outside patio are quieter. Breakfast is included and there's parking
round the back.
Solar de la Quebrada
HOTEL $$$
( 421986;
www.solardelaquebrada.com.ar
; Santa Fé 450; r AR$430; )
This is an attractive
hostelry with characterful rooms decorated with local art: superiors are substantially
more spacious for not many extra pesos. Like so many places around here, it suffers from
absent owners, but nonetheless it's a decent deal with showers offering just about the best
water pressure in the Quebrada.
Eating & Drinking
Most places offer a very competitive lunchtime set meal for AR$40 to AR$60.
