Posada Del Virrey

Located in the heart of Piedra Blanca, this accommodation sits on one of the earliest settled sites of what is now Villa de Merlo. The property occupies a strategic position just 300 metres from the natural border with the province of Córdoba, giving it a transitional setting between two distinct landscapes. Its offering combines colonial-style architecture with a peaceful atmosphere, making it a base for those looking to explore the surrounding area without straying far from the centre of the region.

Setting and natural landscape

The most distinctive feature of the posada is its extensive wooded park spanning one and a half hectares. The grounds include century-old trees that provide constant shade and freshness, integrating the property with the mountain microclimate. The garden extends into rest areas that include a pool with solarium and wet deck, designed for the warm days typical of the area. The presence of native vegetation and the generous green spaces make a stay here feel connected to nature, suited to those looking to step away from the urban pace.

Rooms and comfort

The property has 26 rooms designed to accommodate between two and six guests. The units are equipped with private bathroom, television, and air conditioning, maintaining a functional standard of comfort. Some rooms offer views of the internal gardens or the Sierras de los Comechingones, reinforcing the sense of retreat. The layout of the building, with its galleries wrapping around the main structure, provides shared spaces for reading or taking in the mountain scenery.

Traveller profile

This accommodation suits travellers who prioritise rest in natural, quiet surroundings. Its pet-friendly policy makes it a relevant option for those travelling with pets in search of open green space. Its location in Piedra Blanca works well for both weekend getaways and longer trips through San Luis, serving as a base for visiting nearby points such as the Mirador del Sol or the Algarrobo Abuelo.
