We really appreciated our stay at Hostel Tilcara! Mathias is a very thoughtful host, and we loved staying at his house/hostel. He went over and beyond what is expected. Thanks again!

Mathias was a wonderful host and very communicative. We had a great breakfast with freshly made bread and granola and scrambled eggs. Chilled and happy vibes!

Location was excellent, very close to the center of town. Breakfast was delicious and hardy (scrambled eggs, homemade bread, banana bread, coffee, fruits and granola). It was easy to book excursions and day trips through the hostel for good prices!

The hostel is in what's essentially rural Argentina, so the amenities are what you might expect for a rural dwelling (e.g., no vent over the stove for cooking, open air construction). Also, there was a window gap over the door of my shared room outside of the living room/dining area that didn't close, so when people would stay up late socializing in that area, it was hard to block out the noise. Bring earplugs!

Really lovely atmosphere. The owner makes fresh bread / cookies for breakfast and puts a lot of work into making the hostel feel homey. The owner was able to accommodate gluten free. There is a kitchen for cooking and a nice rooftop for relaxing. I really felt like I was living in a home for a few days, which was a nice complement to the relaxed atmosphere in Tilcara. Would definitely recommend.

We had wonderful time at the hostel. The atmosphere was very welcoming. In the evening Katha made Pizza for everyone and it was a nice community. The hostel is cozy and very close to the main square. We totally can recommend the hostel. Thanks for the warm welcome !

We spend two amazing days at Tilcara Hostel. Kata had made us feel at home from the beggining. We were welcomed with juice and homemade cake. We also shared a wonderful dinner with her and the other guests. The breakfast is homemade (bread,cakes, cookies) and is delicious ! We recommended a lot this hostel, well situated, very cute and clean. Gracias Kata y Diego🪷🪷🪷 Volveremos!

the wifi was slow and sometimes didn’t work in the room, but apart from than that everything was great

I stayed at Tilcara Hostel for a week and really enjoyed my stay there. The hostel is in the perfect location, a 5 minute walk to the bus terminal and main plaza, yet far enough to be quiet. Kadda and Matthias were kind and welcoming hosts and made me feel right at home. The facilities were so clean, I saw them cleaning at least once every day! The included breakfast was filling and the freshly baked banana bread that Kadda made daily was THE BEST. I loved the vibe of the hostel, the music, and especially the terraces and rooftop. Tilcara hostel was my favorite hostel in Argentina, and I hope to return one day. I will cherish my time there and the people that I met. Gracias por todo!!

Incredibly friendly staff (Cata and Diego) that make you feel like a friend from the moment you check in and are always there to help in any way and engage in conversation. The room is very spacious and the bed/pillow really comfortable, much much better than in most hostels. Breakfast is also incredible: eggs cooked to your liking, freshly baked bread and puddings/muffins/cookies, fresh fruit, yoghurt, homemade granola, etc etc. Very nice patio with a hammock and a terrace to watch the sky and a bbq if you feel like cooking under the stars. Cata also cooks dinner every night (vegan/vegetarian) and is more than happy to make more for any guest that is tempted…super tasty, healthy and impossibly low price. 100% recommended

Great place to stay for a couple days.access to kitchen a nice terrace and a lovely hosts and the dog.feels like at home.

There was a big ratio of volunteer staff to guests staying at the hostel, so even though they were nice and friendly, at times it did feel like we were guests in their space which could feel a bit uncomfortable. They could be quite loud too.

The volunteer staff were so friendly and helpful with recommendations. The accommodation was very clean, the kitchen had everything you needed to cook and the breakfast that was included in the piece was tasty and included scrambled eggs and fruit. Shower water was hot and the beds were comfortable.

The ambiance is relaxing, it allows you to relax and encounter fellow travelers. i like the organization of the place and the workers are helpful and friendly. I enjoyed watching Harry Potter movies in the evenings.

Stayed in August 2023

water in the shower was sometimes difficult to adjust, changed from boiling to cold; no sofas indoors (in the cold weather would be nice to have some comfortable common areas inside). the 2 small sofas were constantly used by the 3 dogs.

súper friendly owner and staff, great ambiance, lovely outside courtyard, breakfast offered eggs (nice change). plenty of blankets in the room to keep warm. Pretty central, close to market, some shops and cafés/restaurants; nice family atmosphere

A super cool hostel in the beautiful little town Tilcara, nice design, two super friendly dogs and a nice terrace to hang around. We were off season, so it was quite and we had a room for ourselves. Bathroom clean and nicely decorated. Angel (staff) was super friendly and very helpful!!

Not much space to store bags in the dorms

Very comfortable, clean hostel with lots of charm. The staff was very friendly and the breakfast delicious!

Stayed in April 2022

We were the only clients staying there so there was no problems with bathroom availability, i guest this could be different when hostel is full. The 4-year old child of the owners was a little upset when we arrived and kicked my partner in the leg. So beware:)

The hostel is OK for one night stay. Owners are nice people and very helpful with all the advice traveller would need. They make a very good breakfast (for the price).
