Soltigua Apart Hotel Mendoza

Price was very good. Localization good too.

Breakfast is not good. Bathroom is old and the bed is old too.

The bed was large and comfortable. The housekeeper was excellent.

The kitchenette was too small to prepare anything in, so we ate out every day. The location is quite but a good walk out of town.

We appreciated that though the staff had only approximate knowledge of English facilitated us hiring a driver with a good command in English (his father was Irish so... :-) ) for two days of trips that are a must in Mendoza region: the wineries tour and the Highlands tour (at the entrance trail to Aconcagua mountain). Also location is a good one: there are some very good restaurants on Av. Juan B. Justo - one of them ("El Assadito") very close to the hotel, the other one, a total surprise in a former gaucho town: a French oriented restaurant ("Anna Bistro" - Av. Juan B. Justo 136) with exquisite dinner atmosphere and moderately priced fois gras...

We had the poorest breakfast throughout our whole journey in South America. I do not want to elaborate... I had to insist to have our room changed as we were offered the one that absolutely didn't fit with description on booking.com. The room was eventually changed but starting with the following day. The booking.com reservation system combined with applicable law in Argentina made us pay AGAIN almost the same amount of money for the 4 nights of staying at the hotel (VAT is deducted for foreigners) and the initial retained amount of money was returned to our account only after two weeks! Totally unpardonable.
