La Casa del Abuelo Hotel Boutique

Across the main plaza from Purmamarca's famous Cerro de los Siete Colores, La Casa del Abuelo occupies a traditional adobe house on Calle Salta, placing guests within two minutes' walk of the artisan market that fills the square each morning.

Rooms face the surrounding quebrada hills, each fitted with private bathroom, bathtub, and heating — essential given Purmamarca's cold Andean nights at 2,200 metres elevation. Family rooms are available, and a terrace catches the late-afternoon light as it shifts colour across the layered rock face.

The 24-hour front desk suits the irregular arrival times common on the RN52 road from Jujuy. Breakfast is served on-site before guests head toward the Salinas Grandes salt flats, roughly an hour's drive west.
