Guest Reviews

Elizabeth (10/5): - Very nice hotel. Good location
ANTONIO (10/5): - The place is amazing, great customer service sure to book again
Peter (10/5): - Excellent breakfast, very comfortable room, considerate and efficient staff, on site dining and spa. Would readily stay here again.
John (10/5): - .
Ricardo (8/5): Buena experiencia - La localización es buena , la vista es lo mejor hacia el lago, muy amables , muy limpio, las camas no tan confortables .
Óscar (10/5): - A good expierence
Sue (10/5): - Very nice stay. Fairly extensive breakfast. Easy walk to town. We didn't walk home in the dark from town we took a cab. Very helpful front desk when we needed transportation or anything else.
vita (8/5): - We really enjoyed the decor of this place and a very nice view over the lake. Parking was convenient. The hotel is somewhat removed from the centre of the town yet easily walkable. We didn't much enjoy the food, it was very carb heavy and not to the **** standard. Coffee in the morning was simply NOT coffee.
Ileanexis (8/5): - We enjoyed very much the nice welcome that included a refreshing cold mate and a cool damp towel to freshen up but once you enter the property's doors the view will take your breath away. Service was great in general, Hugo helped us at breakfast and explained to us the mate process. Hugo was just amazing! On the other hand, I have to say Marcelo, was our driver, and was supposed to take us on a day trip to the Brazilian side of the falls but the experience was not so great. Firstly he was not aware of the Brazilian board crossing rule and made us very nervous even saying we could be arrested so he took us all the way there and then decided to takes us back. He made us uneasy and nervous and then supposedly spoke to his supervisor saying then his supervisor said it was okay to cross. Needless to say we didn't want to do anything else with him. On top of that, he charged us 70 dollars to takes us back to the hotel although we stopped at Iguazú Town to buy some things. We thought that was a lot of money for the time. The next day we called an external taxi company that took us there and assured us that whole situation was not neccesary and for way less money. Lesson here, make sure you understand visa requirements and check all alternatives before you trust the hotel for excursions.
Edgardo (6/5): - Great staff but location on the hill makes it inconvenient to get to the main dining areas.
Maddy (10/5): - They made our celebration fantastic. Very comfy bed and the hot tub was amazing! We went every day
Angel (10/5): - Hermoso lugar, vista espectacular. Cerca de la via principal donde se encuentran restaurantes y tiendas.
Felipe (10/5): - The bathroom does not provide privacy
Jürgen (4/5): - Everything was good, but they charge quite different price as they offer due to obscure exchange rate system.
Juan (8/5): - Un bar y lobby espectaculares. Buena atención de todo el staff. El elevador seguro pero un poco viejo. El desayuno sin tantas opciones, pero el restaurante muy bueno.
Neilys (10/5): - Este hotel es muy lindo y tiene accesibilidad para caminar la zona. Tienes restaurantes y barras en las cercanías.
Shelley (10/5): - The hotel is beautiful, with very nice dining and spa/pool. Beautiful views of the town and mountains. The staff were very nice and helpful. They upgraded us to a corner suite. Breakfast options were very good, typical. The only negative was that the room was too hot, and turning off the radiators did not help. However, the windows could be opened. There were barking dogs nearby, but that was our experience at multiple hotels in Argentina. Would highly recommend.
maria laura (10/5): Great place to stay in Calafate - Great location. Staff was friendly and attentive.
Gerard (8/5): - The highs: Way above average food at the hotel restaurant! Chef is obviously talented, wish I remembered her name! and the service was fantastic! Shout-out to Gisela who was fantastic…Bar tender was friendly but disappeared every now and then (with 5 customers total in the bar area) which annoyingly broke the flow of the evening after a perfect dinner, so that sucked. Room was ok, bathroom sucked needs updating (skinny step-in tub shower!?) Location was a bit too far from the main drag but it’s a nice hotel overall with a small sauna and small heated pool (but no shampoo, conditioner etc in the shower). Some front desk staff great some boarder line rude (Bruno) wouldn't/couldn't help us earn Wyndham points, even after we explained, we could not access their site for the direct booking. And would not grant a noon check out ( 1 hour) even after spending almost $400 on food and beverages over 2 days, really!... could be managed better. Restaurant saved the stay, so we could ignore the deficiencies and loved our stay overall.
Carlos (10/5): - Beautiful hotel. Very spacious and comfortable, attentive staff , breakfast could be improved. Overall very enjoyable stay
Michelle (6/5): - Very hot in rooms, opened window which helped but not a lot. Asked for a fan and never received one. Breakfast wasn’t very good so we went out to eat the subsequent days. Parking lot is small and gravel. On the plus side staff were friendly, lobby area was nice and even though the room was fairly small and hot it was clean and in good condition. Easy to walk into downtown area.
Kourtney (6/5): - Property is about a 15min walk from the main street in El Calafate up and down a hill. My initial room was terrible it smelled weird and all you coild hear was the sound of wind and the elevator. The front desk staff were super nice and accomadating and changed my room. The second room was much better. No funky smell and no sound of wind. Overall, the room was comfortable. Breakfast had a large selection of food. The staff were super friendly and helpful in setting up tours and calling taxis.
HERIBERTO (10/5): - Lov the hotel. Will stay there again
Mario (6/5): Feels like Bedrock (Flintstones) - What a disappointment! This hotel was very expensive by any standard. Dated room with no A/C and no amenities. Mattress from the 1990's. Way to hot and impossible to sleep during the summer. Old furniture and tinny TV, huge bathroom with a lot of wasted space. Cold breakfast buffet with very limited options. The staff is very friendly, so at least you have that.
Brandon (10/5): - Very nice property and close walking to everything with a beautiful view
Sue (10/5): - Great hot pool, friendly staff, would not recommend the restaurant
Matt (10/5): - Beautiful views of the lake plus amazing access to town. We were able to walk anywhere and the spa service was a great bonus after a long day!
Cameron (10/5): - A bright, airy, luxurious mountain style retreat at the top of Calafete, a bit of a walk into the main stretch but only 10 minutes by foot. Great rooms, big and airy with plenty of space, and lovely, helpful staff.
Arthur (10/5): - The staff was so very good, they went out of their way to be kind and of service.
Christopher (10/5): - Newish midlevel property in burgeoning active vacation town nearish to the glacier national park area ( 90 kms) Great views esp from lobby
SVETLANA (6/5): - The property looked beautiful on the pictures but did not live up to the expectations. On the positive side - the hotel was very clean and the front desk staff were friendly and very helpful. Now the negatives: the pillows were lumpy, the room on the third floor was extremely hot with no air coming in even with windows open, the upgraded “Mountain View” room had mostly a view of the streets around the hotel (our second room with a “standard” view had a better view), the coffee at breakfast was horrible, and the $25 lunch boxes we ordered from the hotel were inedible. For the price we paid, we expected more from the hotel.
Israel A (10/5): - Friendly staff , attentive. Great view. Breakfast was great.
Marcus (10/5): - The desk and restaurant staff were highly professional, effective, and efficient. Specifically, we would like to name and thank them again, they are: Nico, Marcelo, Stepan at the front desk, and Fabricio at the Restaurant.
CARISSA (10/5): - The hotel is perched on a small hill overlooking the beautiful lake, it’s a 6 min walk from the Main Street. The area is safe. We arrived at the hotel with a booking of a Mountain View, I enquired about the cost for the lake view and we got a free upgrade without asking. The staff were wonderful and friendly. Breakfast was great, the scrambled eggs were not out of a pack. The fruits were fresh and the croissants delicious. The room was huge with the most gorgeous views. No ac but it’s not needed, you can open the windows.
Olga (10/5): - Nice welcoming staff, good breakfast, nice hotel
ehud (8/5): - Nice hotel, helpful staff. Breakfast was so so
Mark (8/5): Nice but Warm Rooms - Hotel was nice enough, but is a good 10 minute walk from Main Street of Calafate. Rooms were very hot at night even with radiator off. Windy spot on top of a hill. Staff very friendly and overall a good stay.
Ana (10/5): - Very good the room ,the proximity to downtown and the great staff
Michelle (8/5): - Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was plentiful and very good selection. Walkable to town to shop or go to restaurant. Rooms are quite warm and loud on a saturday night from a local bar playing music until very late. Bathrooms nice size. Rooms do not have tea/coffee machine which would be helpful
Elizabeth (8/5): - I initially purchased a queen sized bed hotel room. The room was very small. Truly only space for a bed. This particular hotel room is tucked in a corner. Virtually looks like it was turned from a closet into a hotel room to increase revenue. This room should be sold at a highly discounted rate as cheaper hotels have nicer rooms than this one. I would like to note that the property did rectify this situation to improve my experience but it wasn’t until after I walked to another hotel to look at an alternative option.
Richard (8/5): - The hotel and staff were nice. The hotel was a bit off the beaten path.
Alex (8/5): Beautiful place - Beautiful views and hotel itself. The photos don't do it justice. Very relaxed atmosphere with friendly staff. Only downsides was it was too hot at night and loud with the window open. Stray dogs also kept coming into the lobby.
Enrique (10/5): - Good service, nice pool and good breakfast. The tv had some problems with signal and tv control didn’t work well
Santiago (8/5): Lindo hotel - Lindo hotel con buena vista a la ciudad. Desayuno completo. El estacionamiento de autos un poco chico
Astrid (8/5): - Las instalaciones son muy buenas tienen TODO para ser un super hotel, gente amable, vista impresionante, cerca al centro, alrededores verdes con un parque enfrente y se pierden en lo facil 😩 los amenities en los baños son de muy baja calidad y ponen un mini JABON DE PASTA para la ducha imposible en estos tiempos !!! El desayuno fue muy pobre en variedad pedi unos huevos fritos y fueron grasosos mal presentados no quise probar el restaurante por miedo al desastre !!!
kevin (10/5): - Front desk staff were very helpful for us. Very appreciative. Thanks again
Jorge (10/5): - Best place in calafate
Alejandra (8/5): - Muy buena opción, cerca del centro por lo que tienes varias opciones para comer y comprar.
James (10/5): - Great hotel within easy walking distance of the centre El Calafate. We stayed in September and, while it was cold outside, all areas of the hotel were nice and warm. All the staff we encountered were similarly very warm and friendly. The buffet breakfast was a little limited in terms of savoury options, but was perfectly adequate. The pool area was clean and the water was a good temperature; it's just a pity that it's not open in the morning for days when one isn't heading out early. Overall though, we found the hotel offered very good value for money and would certainly stay there if we visit the region again in the future.
Ileanexis (10/5): - Very nice property with appropiate decor. The staff was absolutely great. We have dinner and lunch, the food was great and the service impecable.
NANCY (10/5): - Excellent customer service Beautiful property
Ted (10/5): - Great stay, amazing staff, great location.
SANDI (10/5): - Fantastic lodge style hotel within walking distance to the town. Beautiful decor and excellent jacuzzi area, staff was very helpful!
sandro (10/5): - Great stay at Calafate!
Gabriela (10/5): - Great hotel with beautiful views of El Calafate
Adina (10/5): - We loved this hotel. Clean, modern, restaurant and bar on the premises and walkable to the village
Yasser (10/5): - Excellent hotel and very friendly staff
Aanchal (8/5): - Beautiful view with upgraded room
Lisen (8/5): - Good location away from main area
Jenifer (6/5): - It was very hot and there was no AC. When the windows were open, loud noises came from outside making it difficult to sleep.
Deborah (10/5): - Great hotel! The staff is amazingly friendly and helpful. The breakfast/restaurant/bar is very good. Easy to walk to town. My only suggestion is to add a refrigerator to the rooms. The only negative I would point out is that there is no air conditioning and the rooms get warm/stuffy. This would not deter me from staying at the Esplendor again.
Andres (10/5): - Great chain hotel
Brittany (10/5): Nice hotel - The hotel had a nice impressive lobby, spacious rooms with lots of storage. The pool was very pretty and warm.
john (10/5): - Beautiful views of el calafate and the mountains. Walking distance to restaurants and shops.
Christian (10/5): - Comfortable modern hotel within walking distance of town centre. Adequate breakfast buffet and dining room offers good choices. Only downside was no air conditioning but then it’s not supposed to be warm in El Calafate!
Steven (8/5): - Nice functional room
Maria (4/5): - I recently stayed at this property, and while the overall experience was ok regarding the cleanliness and location, a specific incident has led me to provide this feedback. Upon check-in, I inquired about local tour companies, and the staff was helpful, helping me to book one excursion for that day. However, my satisfaction waned that evening with an unexpected room service follow-up around 11:30 pm. A staff member arrived with a tray containing a cheesecake, two spoons, two glasses and mini champagne bottle, stating it was a courtesy from the property manager to which I asked if all guest were receiving that and she answered no. This gesture left me uneasy, especially since my reservation was for one, and such gestures were not extended to all guests. At that point I had already a pretty tight schedule with the excursions I had reserved for the next couple of days, reason why I couldn’t change hotels, but made me feel unsafe so every night I was making to use something to block the door just in case. I value privacy and respect during any of my stay, at any hotel, and this unsolicited intrusion felt uncomfortable. I hope this feedback helps in refining the guest experience. I tried to contact Expedia to report the incident but couldn’t find a way to do so, but would appreciate if an option to report this was built in the app.
Rama (6/5): - Cleanliness was ok and staff was good but my concept room was hot. Hard to believe I am complaining about excessive heat in the room Patagonia even without heat on but true. I had to go down to front desk to talk about switching in the middle of night. It took awhile but staff was kind enough to switch my room which is mountain facing but more importantly it was comfortable to sleep for four nights.
Mahnaz (10/5): - We enjoyed our stay very much.
David (10/5): - Beautiful hotel and wonderful staff. We spent some time in the bar area for food and drinks and the view is great. A few blocks from the main street (and up a hill) but easily walkable.
ALLEN (10/5): - Decor was unique appropriate to El Calafate. The hotel was a few blocks from the main street where most restaurants and shops were located. Generally speaking, a very nice property and well maintained.
Carlos (10/5): - Great staff
Fabi (10/5): - I was a little hesitant to book this hotel due past reviews and honestly I was greatly surprised by the staff front desk team went extra mile to give proper recommendations and they made everything for my group to feel ‘on vacation mood’. It’s true the location is up hill but the lake view is priceless. Breakfast was a 10 with many portions to choose what better fit your diet. Highly recommended!
Fabi (10/5): - Great stay and super friendly staff.
Lisa (8/5): - I would have given the hotel a perfect 5 but there were a few inconsistency problems at check out and with the box lunch we ordered. Nice breakfast and rooms and overall facilities. Easy and wonderful checkin, limited bar selection. Great mini fridge in room. No face towels or hand lotion. Could use better pillows. Really though the best place we stayed in for our 3 week Argentina tour. Hotel is located at the top of a hill 3 walk able blocks to the main street. Very quiet and clean. Seems very new and well kept.
Adriana (10/5): - It was all perfect during our stay. Staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. Hotel is conveniently located, just a 12 minute walk to the city center.
Luis (10/5): - We stayed at the suite, the room was great and the property was wonderful.
Susan (4/5): - Very noisy probably would not pick this again
Sima (10/5): - The view is stunning
Claudia (2/5): - Not a 4 **** hotel. No room service Very poor maintained.
ANGEL (10/5): Esplendor - Great views and comfort!
Corey (10/5): - This hotel was great and the upgraded room was absolutely spectacular. My only gripe was the misleading VIP perk regarding “1 free spa service for 2 per stay”. They told me this only was pool and sauna use, which doesn’t really make it a perk considering everyone staying at the hotel gets use of this…very misleading and should be changed. Otherwise, the breakfast was great and our stay was extremely pleasant.
souad (10/5): - I enjoyed my stay at the Esplendor, Nice lodge looking hotel, lobby is beautiful as well as bar area. Room is nice, spacious with beautiful views. Staff (Manuel) is really a nice guy and very helpful. Quiet area and 8 mn walk to Centro el calafate (very safe,). The negative is the sauna that is turn off, you have to ask to go an hour before so it is get to the right temperature (I assume this is for economic reason, I am ok with that), the pool was warm one day and cold the other. Breakfast is ok (I am not a big eater).
Nicole (8/5): - The wifi didn’t work
Verified traveler (2/5): - I am a hotels gold member and they did not upgrade our room despite availability. They said it was $80 a night and they hoped to sell the room so they couldn’t offer the complimentary upgrade. The stay was otherwise fine but avoid this hotel if there are other options.
Maria (10/5): Amazing boutique hotel - Amazing boutique hotel. Beautiful decor. Great rooms. Great service. Sits on a small hilltop with easy access to the downtown area of El Calafate.. Do not hesitate to book its wonderful !!!!!
Karen (6/5): - Adequate facilities, problems with keys every day. Seemed understaffed
Luis (2/5): Pésimo - Pésimas políticas de cancelación, mi vuelo fue cancelado por aerolíneas Argentinas y no me devolvieron lo pagado
William (10/5): - Really lovely hotel with excellent staff. Room was very well appointed and clean. The only drawback is the location. Have to climb a few blocks up and the sidewalks are terrible.
Jim (10/5): - We stayed in a suite and it was amazing. The service was fantastic and so was the food.
AdrianV. (10/5): - Esplendor is an amazing hotel on top of a privileged hill with views of the incredible lake and landscape of Calafate. The restaurant was delicious and all the staff go out of their way to make your stay as pleasant as posible. Highly Recommended!

Verified traveler (10/5): - The Esplendor by Wyndham El Calafate was perhaps the best hotel I stayed in Argentina. Prior to arriving in El Calafete I was in Buenos Aires for 5 days. As soon as I arrived in El Calafate I saw and felt the difference in hospitality and felt very welcomed. Everyone was very nice, and I can recall upon checking in I found the front-desk guy greeted us with a smile and helpful tips. The in-room dining was superb, and we had very little complaints about the beds, cleanliness, or design of the room and hotel. The breakfast spread was filling and the view from the hotel was also good.
