This three-pearl, 30-room apartment-style hotel offers simple lodgings on the edge of Mendoza’s historic city center. There are plenty of restaurants and markets in the area, and central attractions are a 15- to 20-minute walk away. Air-conditioned rooms include kitchenettes, but the style is basic and upkeep issues have been reported. For families or large groups, split-level apartments with separate bedrooms are available. Facilities are limited, but include an outdoor pool with a seasonal hot tub, plus a casual cafe with outdoor seating. A free continental breakfast buffet is provided, and both Wi-Fi and on-site parking are also free of charge. Guests who'd prefer a tranquil escape away from the city center might consider Casa Glebinias instead. It's a picturesque country house hotel around a 25-minute drive from the city center.
Scene
Modern, no-frills aparthotel geared toward tourists and families
First impressions at this small-scale property are solid. The lobby feels bright and fresh, with a neutral color scheme, floor-to-ceiling windows, polished marble floors, and a few comfortable seating areas with black leather sofas, glass-topped coffee tables, and tall green potted plants. There's a cafe at the lobby level with a casual atmosphere, as well as an outdoor street-facing seating area, providing guests with a great place for people watching and sipping fresh coffee in the morning. The outdoor pool area is small, but it's a welcome spot to relax and cool off after a long day exploring the city. This hotel is usually busy with tourists from all over the world, particularly families who stay here for the quiet location and extra space.
Location
Residential spot near restaurants and markets, a quick cab ride or 20-minute walk to city center
This hotel is well-located for anyone who wants to be close to the city center, but not right in the heart of it. It's situated on a residential street with lot of restaurants and markets nearby. Picturesque General San Martin Park is roughly a 15-minute walk from the hotel. Central attractions are around a 20-minute walk away, and include the Museo Municipal de Arte Moderno, Teatro Independencia, and Plaza Independencia -- which hosts a popular weekend artisan market. Alternatively, by cab it's a five to 10-minute drive into town. The Malvinas Argentinas Stadium is a five-minute drive away, while the Governor Francisco Gabrielli International Airport is about 25 minutes by car. Travelers looking to visit the area's famous wineries can arrange excursions via the hotel's tour desk.
Rooms
Simple, spacious studios with kitchenettes; plus apartments that can sleep up to six people
This small hotel has 30 air-conditioned studios and apartments with simple, generically modern decor. Configurations vary, but the largest can sleep up to six people. Split-level apartments are also available, with separate bedrooms and living spaces. All have tiled floors, neutral-tone walls, dark-wood furnishings, separate dining areas, and kitchenettes with fridges, microwaves, hot plates, and electric kettles. On the downside, some guests have reported uncleanliness and we spotted some wear during our visit. Flat-screen TVs, safes, phones, and free Wi-Fi come standard, while some upgraded rooms add separate living areas and furnished balconies with street views. White-tiled bathrooms are basic, but all include (tiny) showers or shower/tub combos, bidets, hairdryers, and toiletries. Guests should be aware that street-facing rooms can be noisier, so light sleepers should request at room at the back of the property.
