We stayed only 5 days in the argentinean northwest and visited Jujuy City, Tilcara, Humahuaca, Salinas Grandes, Purmamarca and Iruya. We stayed all our journey at "Rincón de Fuego" in Tilcara and came and went from that to the locations mentioned before -they are all day-trips from Tilcara-.
Not only we loved Tilcara but also Rincón de Fuego. The hotel has the perfect northwest enviroment, is very cozy and confortable. They also offer tours to go to several spots in the area (daytrips) or even Salta and Bolivia, with a 4x4, food, gear and equipment and a very skillfull and kind tilcareño guide named David, a hotel's employe who knows very well all the northwest.
Besides, if you want to have dinner, the hotel has its own restaurante with a professional chef. Don't miss the "ensalada de quinoa" (quinoa salad) or the "cazuela de llama", though all food is exquisit.
Enjoy the argentinean northwest from the most amazing hotel in the area!!
ps: don't expect they anwser your e-mail's requests in a hurry fashion; they really are a little bit "all fashion" on this matter -Internet- but the wait for the answers worth every penny -maybe make a phone call will be better-.
