Hotel La Comarca
La Comarca, Hotel con Encanto is situated in beautiful Purmamarca, heart of the mythical ravine, Quebrada de Humahuaca, included in the UNESCO World Heritage Site List. A mere 50 km distance from the City of Jujuy and 180 km away from the City of Salta - the perfect place to relax on your Argentina tour.
The Hotel\'s singular architectural style is inspired in the region\'s landscape and culture, harmonized with the special natural surroundings. Its warm interiors are built using materials obtained from the area such as cactus wood, stone, hand-hewn timber wood, quebracho and poplar wood, canes and clay resulting in a modern uncluttered design.
Comforts

Each room is decorated with a personal touch, fusing handicrafts and paintings by local artists with vanguard designs, thus achieving unique surroundings.
La Comarca\'s gardens enhance the species of autochthonous flora and combine with the intense green of the alfalfa fields and the backdrop of multicolored mountains. A clear stream cuts across the square, the water\'s pleasant murmuring sounds drifting throughout the area.
