Great staff, easy walk to downtown. It’s at the end of the Main Street, so it is quieter with easy access to the highway that takes you to the glacier.

Nice hostel with pleasant and helpful staff. It is about a 20 minute walk to the centre of town. Rooms weren’t very sound proof as I could clearly hear the ladies next door.
Would return again.

Great hotel with very attentive staff. Matthew our concierge was very helpful with our flight delay issue. He actively contacted the airport and was genuinely concerned and helpful. The hotel is just a bit outside of the main area which is really nice as it has a beautiful view of the lake.

After staying in hostels for a few weeks I thought I’d treat myself. This was same or worse quality, at least I got my own room.

Very pleasant place, albeit a little far from downtown if you don’t have a car. However, taxis are less than 4 USD.
The knobs have horrible keyholes hard to operate. They seem designed in the XIX century

El personal fue increíble, siempre atentos, muy amables. La habitación amplia, limpia, con Buena ducha de agua caliente y fría. La recepción agradable con una buena vista y se puede ir caminando al centro. Cerca de supermercado, restaurante, panadería. Vale la pena hospedarse.
El desayuno muy simple y sin variaciones pero no es para sufrir jajaja

O atendimento é muito bom. Pessoas simpáticas e dispostas a ajudar no necessário. A localização é razoável pra quem não se importa de fazer uma boa caminhada pra chegar ao ponto principal de El Calafate. Por outro lado, há remis(táxi) disponível com facilidade por cerca de 5mil pesos (dez25). O hotel é de um padrão antigo, mas super bem cuidado e charmoso. Td mt limpo e conservado. O café da manhã não tem muitas opções, mas tem o básico e resolve bem. O quarto possui boa estrutura com camas confortáveis e de bom tamanho. Fiquei de frente pra rua, então o barulho dos carros passando (nao sao muitos) pode incomodar quem tem muita sensibilidade pra dormir. Não há frigobar e não existe serviço de quarto disponível, mas vendem bebidas como água e refrigerante na recepção a um custo puxadinho.
