Great report Naxos !!!!
Just to update the Patios de Cafayate situation... I sent up a couple of clients just last week to this property, and the situation seems to be similar to the initial reports on this thread. While the Hotel is nice, making it a Luxury Collection is an overstatement, and the staffing situation re. English has not improved... ie. its still impossible to find someone that speaks English.
I wonder what the situation is with this hotel.... maybe I will cross post something on the Starwood Forum and the SPG guy that watches over things may care to comment.
