House of Jasmines is a luxury countryside hotel in the Andean foothills of Argentina. 

House of Jasmines is an elegant hotel set on a large estancia with views over the Andean foothills. It is a luxurious and very romantic property - one of the distinguished Relais and Chateaux portfolio.

The property features has a gorgeous combination of cream walls, white linen and modern leather furniture. You enter straight into the welcoming living room area, made cosy with an open fireplace. In fact, it does not feel like a hotel at all; there is no reception, there's only a small desk with free internet access at the rear of the building.

The hotel offers just seven snug guest rooms including two suites with a huge outside terrace. There is a communal dining room with one large table so that guests can mingle while al fresco dining can also be arranged on an outside terrace. The food has a distinctly regional bias and cooking lessons can be organised. There is also a spa (open to the public), a short walk away with a Finnish bath, sauna and massage.

    JW, Aylesbury

  • Most memorable aspect: “Something between a long walk in Torres del Paine, the glacier, the boat ride in Ushuaia, San Telmo in Buenos Aires! Too many to pick from.” 

    RM, Tooting

  • Impossible to choose a highlight - the variety made it great. the Falls were a highlight, plus Palermo Viejo in BA    

    KW, London

  • Everything met with our expectations (and beyond) but If there was a real highlight it was probably the visit to Estancia Christina

    RJ, Arundel

  • The whole trip was memorable!  The excursion to Estancia Cristina was amazing, trekking Laguna Torre and Laguna de los Tres were awesome too.  And nothing beats being able to see and hear the Perito Moreno Glacier calve!

    LB, London

  • Each day gave us stunning scenery, amazing sights and the friendliness of the Argentinian people. Although one particular highlight was seeing an armadillo on the road from El Calafate..

    YGG, Wirral

  • Highlight? The trip to Puna.

    RE, Sheffield

  • Patagonia and Buenos Aires were the stand out highlights although the whole trip was wonderful.

    ED, London

  • Highlights?: Perito Moreno breathtaking, Cerro frias,Patagonian lunch and staff (Anna)delightful, Iguazu spectacular, Tango dancing at El Querandi unforgettable.

    AM, Egham

  • The mountain trip in Mendoza was spectacular. We loved Buenos Aires too.

    PW, Tonbridge

  • Beautiful country

    The weather was very kind to us and every glacier, view and the falls were stunningly beautiful. I loved being in the hotel at Bariloche sitting on the terrace overlooking the lake. I even thoroughly enjoyed travelling through the Enchanted Valley from Nequen to Bariloche because the airport had been closed. It is impossible for us to put one memorable moment as every part of Argentina that we went to was beautiful.

    LL, Bexley

  • Highlight?: Cerro Otto, fabulous weather and the guide was just so relaxed and we had all the time in the world. It was a fabulous day

    BD, Oswestry

  • This was our first trip to South America and most definitely will not be the last. And we will be travelling with yourselves again. It was an extremely varied trip and we enjoyed every bit . However we especially loved all the natural beauty and wonders of Patagonia and the Iguazú region . 

    LH, Altrincham

  • Difficult to identify (the highlights of my self drive holiday)... I would highlight the interest of the looping drive down the mountains to the west....watching the leaves of the roadside foliage increase in size as the temperature rose was mesmerising. I would suggest that the pleasure of long drives through changing countryside is one of the unsung pleasures of such holidays as mine. But perhaps that's just lazy old me!

    RS, Salisbury

  • The estancia stay was wonderful, and a really special place to spend my 30th birthday - I was thoroughly spoilt! Our trip to Quebrada de Humahuaca with Juan was also fantastic. It was also great to see the diversity of the country, and the beautiful Iguazu falls.

    JK, North Shields

  • We have had a great holiday in Argentina, partly organised by JLA and would certainly recommend JLA to anyone that wants to have such a trip,  as they provided very good knowledge of the areas we visited and good organisation.

    LS, Zurich

  • We loved all of it, we really enjoyed the scenery of Humahuaca Gorge and the drive to Cafayate.  Iguazu falls are incredible also and a definite highlight....We found our whole holiday experience excellent.  It was nice to be able to see so much in 2 weeks whilst still feeling relaxed as we were looked after so well by all our guides.  The personal itinerary and help we received made a huge difference to us and we were impressed by the standard of all our hotels.  The only problem was that we wished we had longer so we could of seen more.

    HB, Abingdon

  • Most Memorable Moment?: Impossible to say, as each element was so different from the rest. La Bamba certainly will leave an enduring memory. Just the way to chill out after a fairly busy itinerary.

    AD, London

  • Highlight?: Wildlife! Buenos Aires! Travelling Club! being at the end of the world, border crossing in and out of Chile - good fun.....

    MK, Orkney

  • Most Memorable Moment: Perito Moreno glacier.

    SU, London

  • Most Memorable Moment?: Difficult to pick out one part. Patagonia Camp was fantastic. However we found the scenery in Argentinian Patagonia stunning.

    BS, Derby

  • Highlights: As booked by JLA Chiloe. W trek and trekking in Fitzroy Mountains out of this world. Perito Moreno a must.

    KM, Stroud

  • Most memorable trip

    I have wanted to visit Argentina for years. Journey Latin America helped by interpreting our desires and pulled together an excellent itinerary. Our journey will be one of the most memorable trips we have ever been on. Each accommodation was different, giving us a taste for the area, culture and the people were so friendly. What an amazing country.

    LT, Wimborne

  • Most memorable experience: "First - the Andean crossing from Puerta Varas to Bariloche. Perfect weather, scenery and organisation. Second - Patagonia Camp and the mini-treks we did around the Park. Beautiful Third - Salta and the Cachi/Cafayate trip. Interesting, historic and magnificent."

    RW, Cobham

  • Highlights:The visit to the milonga for my husband and the Iguazu Falls for me

    LS, Dorchester

  • Overall, Journey Latin America took excellent care of us on our journey through and across Argentina. We will travel with them again.

    US, Godalming

  • We had a great time.  We'll definitely be going back to Argentina in the future. 

    HD

  • Perito Merino and Iguazú Falls were undoubtedly the high points - unforgettable experiences.

    TW, Prenton

  • Excellent trip during which we felt we saw some of the real Argentina.  Delightful and helpful people abounded who had an enviable pride in their country.  Excellent service from JLA (particularly Lina) and local representatives in Argentina added to our enjoyment.
