A great location. However, property and facilities tired and dated. Electricity, wifi and aircon patchy service and no communication from staff about what was happening. Service was poor and unfriendly - for example for the majority of our stay no one was available on the front desk, and when they were they seemed inconvenienced to have to call taxis/ make reservations etc. Check in was hours late with no apology - we were reluctantly offered a snack which on check out they tried to charge for.

Hello Laura, 1st of January has been very busy but we all offered our best attention. The facilities are all revised and in perfect conditions because we have revision standards. Many guests come everyday and nobody complains about air conditioning/ our 2 wifi nets and electricity. We have the best reviews regarding our staff in the hotel. We are all the time helping our guests because our attention is customised. I apologise if you had to wait some minutes at the front desk, our intention is always the best. Nico just asked you in the check out if everything was already payed due to your comsumption (drinks, etc), and nobody was going to charge anything, of course. Sometimes comunication is not fluent when different languages are spoken, but our intention I assure you that is always the best as a small and boutique hotel.

We loved this place. The staff was SO helpful, arranging two amazing days of winery tours and lunches. The hotel is very small and feels very private. The grounds are very nice and the beds incredibly comfortable. We would stay there again and recommend it to anyone.

Horrible customer service experience
We arrived at hotel late and wanted to relax and stay there for 2 nights. The owner of the hotel told us that her hotel was overbooked and told us we have to leave first thing in the morning. After 3 hours of conversing with her, all we got out that she found us different hotel and will transfer our bags. No compensation, no apology and she even charged us for the meal in her restaurant. We asked how come we have to leave, as other guests have not even arrived and it should be first come first serve, but we did not get any answer. United Airlines comes to mind, lucky she did not get physical. The hotel is clean and rooms are nice, but what is the use if they kick you out.... would never recommend this place to anyone. Just heartless service.

Dear guests we are sorry for the inconvenience, as we told you when you arrived very late to the hotel. Check in was until 21.00h and you arrived after midnight. It was not our responsibility that you arrived so late because of the problem you had crossing the border from Chile to Argentina in the bus company. Not only we gave you a dinner very late at your arrival and invited you to a high quality wine, but also helped you with everything we could at your arrival so that you could have place in one of the bests hotels in Mendoza. Everybody knows this hotel for our loving service, we are well known in Chacras de Coria. I don´t think that you gave all the real information in your write. I am sorry to say that Olga. But we have talked about it. We are very sorry for all the inconvenience you could have felt during your whole trip before arriving to Mendoza, t we know you had many problems and were very upset. But please understand that we were not responsible for your late arrival. We never had an email or phone call to inform us about your delay. And we cannot assure a reservation if you don´t respect the rules informed in the reservation you did via Expedia.com. Regards, Elena and Nicolás

most helpful staff at postales argentina
we recently stayed at the postales argentina hotel in chacras de coria, and we can't say enough good things about the friendly and helpful staff. not only were they helpful with all the basics, like calling for transportation, or suggesting activities in the area - they were able to call a doctor to come to the hotel when my husband developed bronchitis. really above and beyond service. the hotel is just down the street from the small downtown of chacras de coria, and it is a quick walk to several shops and restaurants. it is very quiet there, which is a nice change of pace from downtown mendoza. we were a little disappointed that the outdoor swimming pool was not operational while we were there, but other than that, it was a cute place to stay with great service.

Great hotel
This place is located in a small village outside of Mendoza, the staff is extremely helpful and will set up activities for you, trekking, rock climbing, wine tasting, bike rides, etc. The breakfast is basic but delicious and fresh, rooms are clean, beds very comfortable, setting is idyllic. Very reasonably priced. Lots of excellent restaurants in the area, and for 40 pesos, about 10$ US, you can buy bottles of the lodge's Malbec, which is fantastic.

Nice place
The room furnishings are a bit outdated, but other than that, the lodge is really nice. However, the most important thing is that the people who work there did everything possible to help us with everything we asked for: restaurant and winery reservations, recommendations, directions, nice breakfast, etc. So overall a very positive experience.

Excellent lodge near Mendoza wineries
We were glad we decided to stay about 15 minutes outside the provincial capital as our base for winery tours, as that put us in the quaint, friendly suburb of Chacras de Coria -- close to small bodegas and one large one (Alta Vista). The town, a brief and safe walk from the lodge, has a small plaza with decent lunch choices indoors or at tree-shaded sidewalk tables. There's a Spanish-style adobe church. The lodge, which lost its chef and had to close its Fuego Restaurante, is next to a nice Italian restaurant and within walking distance of a few others -- though Mendoza might be the best bet for dinner if you have a car or want to take a cab. (Note: All restaurants are closed Monday evenings.) We rode a public bus to and from Mendoza one afternoon -- a low-cost, smooth trip of about 30 minutes or less, with a stop right outside the lodge. You'll need 2 pesos per person in coins, though -- not always easy to get. (Desk had no change.) Breakfasts were small, but satisfying -- with cooked-to-order eggs or omelets. The small outdoor pool is refreshing and the grounds have cozy seating areas for dusk or evening snacks, wine tasting and meeting fellow guests. There's also a tour-booking office, which we didn't use. --> Highly recommended.

Could have been great, but!
The property and staff were wonderfull and the little town is quaint and welcoming. The problem is there are a lot of stray dogs in town . During the day the dogs are docile and friendly, but at night they go nuts and start barking like crazy from midnight till 2 or 3 in the am. There must be 20 of them and It is not possible to sleep through the noise. If they started a human society in this town and addressed teh problem this would be an awesome place to go for a great experience!

Querido Basilio, o hotel esvazia sua piscina no final do outono para enchê-lo e preparar o belo jardim para a temporada. Sinto muito que você não gostou. É um hotel muito acolhedor, muito bem localizado, com excelentes camas e casas de banho, confortável e oferece uma atenção muito calorosa. Consideramos que hoje em dia são pontos muito atraentes e nosso puntucaión nos endossa. Lamentamos que você não gostou. Elena

Dear guest, Jardín de Piedras Hotel is one of the best located hotels in Chacras de Coria. Although guests do not have to use the car during the stay, and this is a strong advantage, we also have in consideration the balance in our rate, if you compare it with the rest of hotels. Our prices are excellent, and we are known for that. Chacras de Coria is a high demanded area and prices are higher than in the city of Mendoza. It is an exclusive place sorrounded by vineyards, wineries, restaurants, mountains and peace. This is an important fact to consider before doing a reservation. Chacras de Coria is a very special place for a specific kind of pleople.

Exelente servicio!!!
Nos encanto todo lo del hotel, la verdad que el servicio es estupendo te hacen sentir como si estuvieras en casa, muy amables. Las instalaciones son muy buenas, igual que las habitaciones muy comodas y limpias!!! El desayuno estuvo estupendo!!!! Lo unico es que si no vas en auto esta un poco lejos de algunas bodegas, pero si buscas estar mas relajado y lejos de todo ruido de la ciudad que era lo que nosotros estabamos buscando es realmente perfecto!!!! Gracias a todo el personal por hacer de nuestras vacaciones realmente maravillosas!!!!

Grüne Insel und Oase der Ruhe
schöne Anlage mit Pool und der Möglichkeit im Grünen zu sitzen, freundlicher Service, der übrigens auch eine Gepäckaufbewahrung über die Check-Out-Zeit hinaus ermöglicht. Das Gelände liegt trotz der nahen Straße sehr ruhig und etwas unscheinbar hinter einem gesicherten Eingangstor. Wer etwas Abstand vom lauten Mendoza gewinnen will und mitten in einem Weinort wohnen möchte, ist hier genau richtig. Das ausgezeichnete Weingut Chacras de Coria mit wunderbarem Restaurant ist übrigens nur ein paar Schritte entfernt... Chacras de Coria Lodge kann ich also absolut empfehlen.

je recommande à tous mes amis
Nous avons reçu un accueil chaleureux et très professionnel dans ce petit hôtel situé dans la banlieue de Mendoza. Les chambres sont grandes, bien équipées avec de grandes fenêtres qui permettent de profiter de la vue du jardin. Le petit-déjeuner est frais et délicieux (media lunas tièdes et croustillantes...). Le service est aux petits soins (réservations de bodegas et restaurants, plans commentés, conseils...).
