Filed In: CM by Carlos Melia Collection, Hotels, Mendoza

Villaggio Boutique Hotel | Mendoza, Argentina | One of my favorite options, when on a tight budget, and looking for a very reasonable price without risking great location, boutique style/concept and comfort. Located in a privileged area of the city of Mendoza, one block from Independencia Square and a few blocks from the main commercial and tourist points of the city
