“Peaceful location yet close to Centro. Great sleep quality.”
Marti and Leo are happy souls to spend time with at the hostel. They invited me to a night on the town and many meals together in the week I stayed. Excellent, quiet sleep. Lovely chilled pueblo to walk around. plenty of eating options too.

“Charming hostel in central Tilcara”
Charming hostel in very central Tilcara, only a 10 minute walk away from the bus station. We loved spending time with the resident dog and cats, and the host was lovely and super helpful. Breakfast was delicious - we wish we could make eggs like that! Despite being almost winter, the heater in the room meant we were perfectly cosy. Thank you!!

“Gracias Tilcara Hostel”
Buena onda! Matthias and the staff are great. I spent six days there and it was just like hanging out with friends. Breakfast is well served, internet is solid and water is warm. There’s a terrace with barbecue and location is 3 min walk from center, so it’s calm and central at the same time.

I had a great time in Tilcara Hostel. It‘s a nice and central place with cute cats and a dog. Mathias is very welcoming and he makes a great breakfast everyday and helps with anything. The people there were great and we even had a pizza evening together. I would definitely come again.

“Beautiful hostel, amazing staff and delicious homemade breakfast.”
The owner is so so lovely, welcoming and helpful. The hostel is beautiful, centrally located and easy to find, it has a good social space and a little rooftop perfect for a bit of yoga. Amazing breakfast with homemade bread, this is one of my favourite hostels in Argentina. Thank you!

“Charming Stay in Tilcara”
We had a lovely time in Tilcara. Matthias is an amazing host. The hostel is really sweet and super clean. There is a huge kitchen with everything you need (including oil and spices which was great). The breakfast was the highlight. Every day Matthias makes fresh bread which is served with your choice or eggs, cream cheese, or dulce de leche. There is also fruit, granola and tea and coffee on offer.

“Amazing”
This hostel is amazing! The host is really friendly and it is in a good location relative to the main sights in Jujuy! The breakfast was also really filling and tasty! I would recommend it to anyone going to Jujuy! A magical place surrounded by magical nature needs great accommodation!

Lovely place! The owner and volunteers make you feel so welcome. The location is great, in a quiet corner of the center, in walking distance to the bus station. And the breakfast was the best I had in Argentina.

“Loving and familiar hostel”
If you want a personal and more a familiar feeling in the hostel this is the place to stay. Mattias the owner is a very loving and caring person. This is the first time in whole Argentina I get a very good breakfast. I can not eat gluten but that wouldnt stop Mattias from getting me a good breakfast. He would bake gluten free bread just for me and he even went and bought a new mixer so he could make me hummus :D He also have a fun and very active son of 3 years who live in the hostel. There is also a loving former street dog that now lives in the hostel. And there are 2 cats. The animals loves to be patted and cared for :) It is very easy to meet and socialise with the backpackers in the hostel as the hostel is not to big.
