Located in a typical Mendoza house, the Posada retains its
traditional style but has all new floors, fixtures and top-quality
furnishings to make your stay both comfortable and aesthetically
pleasing. All rooms have WiFi, television, and telephones.
Unlike country inns, these lodgings offer the advantages of comfort, privacy and surroundings of natural beauty--without having to depend on public transportation, hiring drivers or driving yourself in an unfamiliar environment to meals, shopping, errands or entertainment. Unlike anonymous hotels, they offer a homelike atmosphere with personal service by a caring, bilingual staff whose primary mission is to ensure that all our guests enjoy their stay in Mendoza.
The three studios, with their white facades, terra cotta floors and
arched windows, summon up visions of a Spanish town. The private
bathrooms are finished in Mendoza's local travertine marble,
with slate floors.
Furnishings include custom-made wood closets, tables and chairs and cupboards.
Each room also has top-line King Koil beds that can be made up as twins or a queen, and a kitchenette with a sink and small refrigerator.
Traditional ethnic textiles and other works of art adorn the walls, and some areas feature Mendoza's traditional cane ceilings. Studio windows directly overlook the garden, with its banana, orange and lemon trees, bougainvillea and flowers; and the pool area.
There are two rooms upstairs in
the main house, each with private bath.
One of the rooms has a third twin bed in an alcove that also serves
as an inviting nook for reading and relaxing.
The custom-built wood closet systems also include a writing desk where you can hook up your computer. These rooms feature original wood floors, and other design elements include traditional ethnic textiles and art objects.
The house offers a variety of spaces where all guests may choose to relax
either on their own, or in the company of friends, family and other guests.
The first is the reception area. Lined with a series of banquettes, this welcoming room has original art works, a custom-designed and built wooden table with a base of wine barrels that represent one of Mendoza's top attractions--the wine industry; and an aquarium. A few steps beyond the reception area, you enter a salon with comfortable leather furniture, a flat-screen television and entertainment options including music and games.
Next comes the sunroom, with its working fireplace and views of the garden through
the a series of arch-shaped windows. This bright, cheerful venue is used for
serving Continental breakfast and for special meals or events such as receptions
or meetings. The adjacent kitchen, featuring a professional stove, is available
for catered events.
If you want to celebrate a special occasion in Mendoza, we can arrange memorable
events including a private, catered, candlelight dinner on the terrace, a barbeque
with live Mendoza folk music, or a party or reception in the terrace and garden
area for up to about 50 guests.
Gardens and Swimming Pool
The sunroom opens onto the ample terrace--an option for al fresco meals--with
its grape arbor and huge Argentine barbeque. The terrace overlooks a lawn and
garden whose three levels are defined by stone walls, and a pond with water
lilies. Lush vegetation, including bougainvillea, banana, orange, lemon and
cherry trees, surround the garden and the pool. The swimming pool, perfect for
cooling off on a warm day, has a deck area where you can relax, enjoy a cold
drink or snooze in the sun. At day's end, it's a nice spot to sip a glass of
Mendoza wine and watch the sunset.
