I 1 migliori Ostelli a Cafayate

Hostels in Cafayate suit travellers who want to explore the Calchaquí Valley wine region on foot or with short rides, without paying for full-service hotels. Cafayate’s compact centre clusters around Plaza 9 de Julio, a central meeting point for coffee breaks and planning vineyard days. Just beyond the square, the area is ideal for wandering between historic facades and local venues, while the cathedral setting near the colonial core helps make evenings feel lively but still relaxed.

Staying in a hostel here is a great match for backpackers, solo travellers and friend groups who value social spaces, simple facilities and helpful travel tips—especially when most activities (tastings, museums and short “Quebrada” excursions) are easy to organise once you’re based in town. For quieter nights, choose the more residential streets close to the centre rather than the noisiest corners; for the strongest “in the mix” atmosphere, prioritise places within easy reach of Plaza 9 de Julio.

On our list, Hostel Cafayate (2★) and Hostel Internacional El Balcon (3★) sit well for travellers who want a practical base with a more social hostel feel, while Hostal Benjamin (1★) and Hostal Rustyk (1★) typically appeal to budget-focused guests seeking straightforward stays.
