Accommodations and Food
Trip Ideas
Yapeyú has its charms, but accommodations and food are few and ordinary at best. On Plaza San Martín, Hotel San Martín (Sargento Cabral 712, tel. 03772/49-3120, US$37 d) has large rooms surrounding a barren courtyard, but some lack exterior windows. Rooms have decent beds and private baths, plus air-conditioning, but no breakfast is available.
More visually appealing than the San Martín, Complejo El Paraíso (José de San Martín s/n, tel. 03772/42-4102, www.termasdeyapeyu.com.ar, US$42–74 d) has reinvented itself as a hot-springs spa. Each motel-style bungalow has two bedrooms, one with a double bed and the other with four singles, but the rooms are dark. It now has a restaurant.
There are two other places to eat, both utilitarian with limited menus: Hotel San Martín’s own basic restaurant and Comedor El Paraíso (Gregoria Matorras s/n, tel. 03772/49-3053), around the corner.
