Las Marias Boutique Hotel

Las Marias sits just a few blocks from the main square of Tilcara, a charming town surrounded by the natural beauty of the Humahuaca Valley. The hills here are famous for their jagged layers of bright colours; you can enjoy the views from your room or balcony, or while lounging in the hotel pool.

The hotel’s architectural style reflects the natural beauty of its environment, with extensive use of wood and stone evoking the majesty of the mountains. The rooms feature open fireplaces, perfect for curling up next to after a day breathing in the mountain air, and balconies or outdoor seating areas from which you can take in the view. Premium Suites have fully furnished outdoor decks including a grill, so you can enjoy a barbecue while you take in the views of the mountains.

The hotel’s restaurant serves a variety of exquisitely presented gourmet dishes based on fresh, seasonal ingredients. Special dietary requirements will happily be catered for with advance notice. For a more relaxed dining experience, head into the town of Tilcara where you’ll find a range of small restaurants serving hearty, traditional food; hotel staff will happily make recommendations.

The hotel has a lovely outdoor pool, which is heated so that you can enjoy a dip while taking in views of the mountains even during the chilly winter months. Massage treatments are available by arrangement.

The Jujuy province is remarkable for its richness of natural beauty and cultural history, in particular the valley of Quebrada de Humahaca. This valley is famous for its multi-coloured mountains, whose slopes lie waiting to be explored on foot, horse or bike. Popular tours take in the Serrania de Hornocal, which are spectacularly brightly coloured, and the village of Susques, home to a beautiful church dating from the 1500s.
