Patios de Cafayate
In the middle of the vineyards of the El Esteco winery and with the Calchaquíes Valleys in the background, the helmet of the estate – which once belonged to the traditional Michel Torino family founded in 1892, today is part and soul of this incredible hotel with wide walls, glass domes that illuminate the corridors, Spanish tiles on their ceilings, wrought iron portals, gurgling fountains, typical cisterns, and a wide collection of period furniture and paintings.

The Patios De Cafayate 32 rooms arranged between large patios in the best colonial style, welcome us with the comfort of their spaciousness and with their original furniture, but also with the modernity of their equipment and services. Neatly maintained gardens and a magnificent pool surrounded by grape-laden pergolas frame the valley afternoons, bringing coolness to the radiant sun.
There is also an incredibly restaurant experience, one of the greatest attractions of the hotel. Chef Virginia Marín and the cook team have installed their culinary laboratory in the heart of the garden galleries, giving life and soul to the La Rosa restaurant.
The Peruvian or local saddle horses are a tradition in the valleys, and the most requested circuits are the circuits in El Esteco vineyards and ridings to San Isidro hill, to Yacochuya or to the Divisadero.
In the massage room, which is situated in the fountain patio, the professional masseurs offer stress reducing and relaxing treatments, with alternative reflexology or reiki sessions. The creams made from almonds and lavender are exclusively produced for the hotel. An ideal place to relax and enjoy a revitalising massage session.
Patios de Cafayate and El Esteco Winery are part of the same wine tourist destination. Guests are offered different kinds of wine tastings and visits to the winery. The winery is open every day in the morning and in the afternoon, and only in the morning during the weekends and public holidays.
