- Víctor (10/5): - La atención del personal, las instalaciones y la ubicación son sobresalientes y excedieron nuestras expectativas.
- Leslie (1/5): Not a good experience for some place to relax. - Poor breakfast choices.
Very old mattress.
Water in bathroom was sporadic.
- Marie (10/5): Gemütlich und sehr empfehlenswert - Alles bestens, sehr nettes Team, tolles Frühstück, gutes Bett, viel Warmwasser
circa 20 Minuten zu Fuß in die Stadt, dafür hell, ruhig und grün. Parkplatz vor der Tür, empfehlenswert.
- Carmen (9/5): Muy acogedor: - Hotel sumamente acogedor, limpio y con staff muy amable La propiedad es muy linda. Las camas muy cómodas, es limpio, personal muy amable. Lo único mal es que la regadera se tapaba constantemente. La ubicación es linda; pero algo alejado del centro.
- Laetitia (10/5): - Le lieu est superbe, la décoration et l'ambiance sont vraiment très agréables. Le personnel est souriant et gentil.
Le petit-déjeuner est très bien.
- Joel (10/5): A lovely but brief stay in this hotel - the staff were super helpful organising our visit to the glacier, and the room w - We liked the lovely staff and excellent room condition.
- Elina (9/5): -
- Katarzyna (9/5): - Bardzo ładny i klimatyczny hotel, na uboczu, blisko parku , przemiła i pomocna obsługa
- Joseph (10/5): Mooie en zeer aangename locatie voor uitstekende priijs - Leuk ingericht, zeer schoon, fijne kamers, bijzonder behulpzaam en aardig personeel, goed ontbijt, zeer goede value 4 money! Eigenlijk niets
- Flaca C (10/5): - El barrio hermoso, desayunar con vista a las copas de los árboles....el marco natural, el silencio. Todo muy hermoso. El desayuno muy rico. Nada
- Cristina (10/5): -
- Welschen (6/5): - El personal fue muy amable y las instalaciones son cómodas El desayuno era básico y con cosas de mala calidad en general al igual que los elementos de higiene de la habitación, utilizaron el mismo producto (probablemente shampoo) para rellenar el jabón de ducha y el acondicionador.
- Ana Carolina (5/5): -
- Christian (8/5): -
- PIOTR (10/5): Friendly & quiet place very close to the bird reserve - The staff was super friendly and very helpful. The place is quiet, clean and a good value for money. We recommend ordering a plate of tapas for two and malbec wine for a perfect evening on their terrace!
- Katherine (9/5): Wonderful experience. - The front desk staff, Luz and Juana especially, were incredibly kind and helpful. Luz very patiently helped me coordinate tours and answered all of my various questions. They could not have been better. I loved the building, the setting and my view of the garden. The location was also excellent even though the main tourist street was a 10 minute walk, the lake was only a block away. Another guest and I did something to upset the owner, who had the opportunity to nicely express his disapproval, but chose to be very rude and ugly instead.
- Olivier (10/5): Très bien - Le décors charmant, chaleureux , extérieurs coquets, fleuris. Personnel agréable.
- Rebecca (9/5): - Sehr gemütlich, super freundliches Personal, gutes Frühstück 🍳 In die Innenstadt ist es ein Stück, aber ist immer ein schöner Spaziergang :)
- Uta (9/5): -
- Rubio (9/5): - Está cerca de la laguna y de un bar restaurante muy adecuado para las tardes después de las rutas.
Las chicas siempre dispuestas a ayudar.
Cómodo y perfecto para unos días en calafate y para las excursiones, alejado del ruido del centro. Todo perfecto. Le daría una vuelta al espacio para gestionar el desayuno, es decir, lo que ponen que está rico, necesita más espacio para ir cogiendo lo que quieres desayunar. Pero en general todo bien
- Wolfgang (9/5): -
- Daniela Paula (8/5): - La ubicación muy buena. Lugar tranquilo y la atención de las chicas de recepción, increíble.
El desayuno completo y el horario genial ya que las actividades suelen ser temprano. Me parece que hay que tener enchufes al lado de las mesas de luz. Siendo dos personas, había sólo un enchufe compartido con la pava eléctrica y otro en el baño.
- Camille (9/5): Super séjour !! - Très bel hôtel, charmant et calme. Personnel accueillant. Très bon petit déjeuner. Un peu loin du centre ville et du terminal de bus.
- Fiona (10/5): -
- Jean-Guy (9/5): - Wonderful staff, close to the bird reserve, good breakfast.
- Ewa (9/5): Wygodnie i przyjemnie - Lokalizacja w oddaleniu od turystycznego i głośnego centrum, bliżej laguny i jeziora. Ładny ogródek. Miły personel.
- Sarah Jill (10/5): Recommend this for a few nights in El Calafate - Really welcoming, helpful staff, very clean and a good location near the lake Nothing to report!
- Dominique (10/5): Très bon séjour - Le personnel très gentil et qui parle le français Le bruit dans les chambres d’à coté
- Jorge (10/5): Es un lugar con una magia especial. Lo recomiendo 120% - El lugar es mas de lo que se espera; Juana y Luz son exelentes anfitrionas, siempre con un caracter alegre, organizaron nuestros tours con una muy buena agencia y Que fueron maravillosos…
Muy limpio y magico Quiza el checkout no tan temprano
- Andrea (9/5): -
- Madaleine (8/5): Quiet and quaint Calafate Stay - We loved the side garden with birds, mature trees, proximity to the Laguna, traditional decor, and kind staff. We did not love the bed, the bathroom was quite small, and the surrounding neighborhood is not yet developed.
- Michael (10/5): Amazing hospitality! Mil gracias🙂! -
- Pat (9/5): -
- Pascale (8/5): Un hôtel chaleureux dans une région très belle - Le style de l'hôtel et l'intérieur , sa décoration , c'est chaleureux et accueillant
L'accueil très sympathique et serviable (comme souvent en Argentine :))
L'emplacement proche du lac, de deux restaurants sympas. Le café au petit déjeuner moins bon que ce que nous avions eu avant.
L'aspirateur n'a pas été passé dans notre chambre au cours des 3 jours ou nous étions à l'hôtel.
- estela (8/5): Estuvo muy buena. Recomendamos el alojamiento. - Principalmente el persona, muy amables y atentas en todo momento siempre dispuestas a nuestras preguntas y pedidos. Con la mejor sonrisa en todo momento. Nuestras habitaciones estaban muy separadas entre si y una de ellas de ellas ubicada detrás de la recepción no nos gusto tanto.
- MASSIMILIANO (9/5): Abbastanza bene - La posizione e lo staff competente e molto gentile La colazione scarsa, mancanza di appoggio sia in camera che in bagno. La pulizia non era certo impeccabile....i cuscini erano troppo grossi ed anche quelli che hanno proposto in alternativa erano altrettanto, ed avevano macchie nelle federe.
- Annelotte (9/5): Super verblijf in een leuk vernieuwend hotel! - Super locatie. Leuk hotel en lekkere douche en bed. Vriendelijk personeel en ontbijt was ook goed geregeld. -
- Margriet (9/5): -
- Simone (8/5): -
- Burak (8/5): El calafate için mükemmel - Merkeze yakın.Kahvaltısı güzel.Çalışanlar yardımcı.Yakındaki La Cantina restoran harika.
- Ashok Kumar (8/5): - Good breakfast.everything ok.
- Jessica (10/5): - Super Service, very friendly and courteous, very nice hosteria
- ruben (10/5): -
- Julia (10/5): Fantastic stay among the friendliest of people. - I loved the staff at reception. They put me on a tour to see Perito Moreno within 2 hours from my plane touching down in El Calafate. They were super nice and friendly and made all the difference. I felt welcome and at home. I liked pretty much everything. It would be nice if some vegetables were offered for breakfast. The location is not super central, but it puts you close to Brown’s Cafe which has excellent coffee - the best I’ve had in Argentina.
- VERA (10/5): -
- Salcedo (10/5): - El lugar bellísimo, junto a la costanera, personal muy amable y desayuno muy rico
- Gayathri (9/5): Gorgeous place, very worth the money, super friendly and communicative and helpful staff. - The whole place was super cute and charming, very rustic and cozy. All staff were very kind and super helpful. I would have loved some more savory and healthy options for breakfast. Also, the twin bed room was rather small for us and our luggage.
- Cristina (10/5): -
- Béatrice (10/5): Séjour à El Calafate - La décoration, le calme, la gentillesse et la serviabilité du personnel. Rien
- willemien (9/5): Rustig gelegen onderdak in El Calafate - Rustige ligging, sfeervol hotel,prima uitvalsbasisom met een huurauto El Calafate,De Perito Morenogletscher.Een wandeling naar het vogelreservaat aan het meer is ook goed mogelijk Onze kamer was aan de kleine kant
- Federica (10/5): If we return to El Calafate we will definitely return here! - Very well kept structure and rooms. Top staff. Lucy was the icing on the cake: kind, helpful and professional, she helped us deal with an issue with our flight and recommended some places to have an aperitif and dinner which turned out to be a truly excellent choice.
- Courtney (10/5): Peaceful Homebase between El Calafate Adventures - The staff was outstanding, friendly and helpful with anything I needed. The property is two wonderful buildings with little sitting areas throughout the both that add to the relaxing stay. The property is right by the lake and close to the nature reserve which I loved about this place. It is about a 15-20 minute walk into town if you are looking to be close to everything but the walk was very nice and easy. Town did not feel inaccessible from the property. I appreciated the quiet location and there are restaurants, a cafe, and a small convenience store around the corner so you don’t have to go to town if you don’t have the desire or energy. Everything was perfect! Thank you for a wonderful stay in El Calafate!
- Beatriz (7/5): Estupenda estancia, maravilloso personale habríamos dado un 10 si no fuera por el desayuno! - El personal es maravilloso. Nos ayudaron a organizar mucho. El entorno es muy tranquilo. El desayuno está un poco limitado y las fotos confunden, parece que tiene restaurante.
- Bertrand (9/5): 2 nuits formidables - Personnel plus qu'accueillant à l'écoute et aux petits soins... Bravo vraiment 👏👏👏
- Sabrina (9/5): - Am Rand des Ortes gelegen, ca. 10-15 Minuten zu Fuss an die „Hauptmeile“. Sehr liebevoll eingerichtete Unterkunft, sehr freundliches Personal. Sehr gutes Frühstück.
- Agustín Nicolas (10/5): - Excelente atención, y muy lindas instalaciones
- Bente (8/5): -
- Hutchison (7/5): - Helpful staff Their boardwalk lights left on all night and our shades unable to block it out.
- Sergio (10/5): - La ubicación, la comodidad de la cama y de la habitación, la autenticidad y por supuesto la amabilidad de todo el personal siempre dispuestas a ayudar en todo.
Un 10 de 10.
- Jennifer (9/5): Great, would definitely recommend - This place was fabulous, it really felt like home. The staff were exceptionally friendly and the location is a short walk from town, which made it quiet but also very convenient. It was warm, comfortable and clean! If you stay, go to la cantina (around the corner) best food, general vibe bar in el calafate. Not an issue for us but the room did say it has a TV and ours didn’t.
- Carla (10/5): Descanso , encuentro con amigas - Todo, muy confortable . Cálido , íntimo . La calidez del personal . Cerca del lago y de el centro .El desayuno . Los espacios comunes .
- Hope (8/5): Overall nice value. - Great staff and quiet location. Carpets felt old and musty smell.
- Jin (10/5): - Great staff and location!
- Fabiane (10/5): Paz e conforto!! - A recepção da Sra Juana foi ótima! Quarto limpo, com cama confortável, chuveiro ótimo. O frigobar foi excelente para guardarmos água e lanche para os passeios de dia todo sem alimentação inclusa. O silêncio foi extraordinário! Dormimos muito bem!! -
- Conor (9/5): - Amazing front desk staff. Extremely welcoming and helped us with a last-minute taxi to the bus station.
- Daryel (10/5): -
- Gabriel (10/5): -
- margarita (10/5): - Friendly staff and cleaning.
- OSCAR (8/5): - Mejorar el desayuno
- Melissa (10/5): Great stay - Service by Natalia was excellent, we stayed just one night but we had a great experience.
Tiny clean cozy room
Good breakfast
15 minutes walk from « downtown » El calafate and the restaurants
- Asiyeh (8/5): - Good location. You can walk to town in 15 minutes and it was close to a beautiful lake .
- Luca (10/5): Great stay in a lovely, cozy, rustic hotel - Great stay in a lovely, cozy, rustic hotel in El Calafate
- Hebert (4/5): Não é um hotel de 3 estrelas e não cobra em dólar - Infelizmente não tivemos uma boa experiência.
Cuidado quem vai pagar em dinheiro na estadia. O valor da conversão do dólar para peso é com base na cotação do dólar MEP.
Uma dica é levar os dólares para pagar a estadia, senão a estadia vai sair 10% a mais na conversão do hotel para pesos.
O quarto estava com problema no aquecedor e não tivemos a oportunidade de mudar, pois não havia disponibilidade de novo quarto.
O café da manhã é bem fraco: pão, sugo e biscoitos. Nem as medialunas que é algo comum na região, infelizmente não tinha.
O restaurante do hotel funciona apenas a noite - 19:30h às 22h.
O quarto não tem espelho fora do banheiro e internet fraca.
O banheiro acumula água e vaza para área de piso.
Lembrando que ele fica há 18/20 minutos do centro. Como na cidade não tem Uber, o táxi é a única solução.
A equipe de atendimento é simpática, mas se esforçou pouco nos problemas.
- ROSALVO LUIZ (6/5): - Muito lonhe do centro, localizado num deserto não tem nada por perto! Muito caro para o que oferece!
- Ruth (10/5): - El lugar es muy bonito y cómodo
- Klaus (8/5): - personal muy amable, cerca de la laguna.
- Meridith Lee (4/5): - Breakfasts are not what they were! .. not very healthy- lots of sugar and reused food / not hot selection - juice is boxed and sugary - coffee dispenser broken and unhygienic. Restaurant has extremely poor selection- no afternoon tea offered anymore. Amenities getting tired and old - not particularly child friendly- staff were grumpy ( one lovely exception!) location being built out - no fan in the bathroom- only two teabags in room , no milk, no refreshments offered in room. Won’t be back.
- Mària (8/5): - Very nice and confortable place.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice, friendly stay - Fantastic and super friendly staff! Room was clean and properly equipped, but a touch small. Good breakfast and dinner available on- site. Walking distance to town center.
- Rosana (2/5): - No se si fue expedia o el propio hotel pero revendieron y cuando llegue no tenia las habitaciones. Tuvimos q salir a buscar un hotel nuevo en la semana del festival del lago von todo repleto de gente. Medio dia perdido y el humor arruinado por 24 hrs. Eso no se hace, al menos se avisa antes
- Andrea (10/5): We loved it and would go back - THis is the best hotel we stayed in Patagonia. THe room, breakfast and the kindness of the staff were unparalleled.
It was a great value for what we paid too!
- Isaac (4/5): Maybe another time. - The water didn’t work for our stay. Maybe not their fault but obviously played a part in it not being our fave place ever. Front desk was awesome.
- Gabriel (8/5): - Muy acogedor y las personas muy amables, algo lejos de av libertadores pero tampoco nada impisible.
Lo único que no me gusto para nada fue la cena de navidad ya que tardó mucho tiempo en su preparación y fue extremadamente cara
El desayuno podría ser un poquito mejor
- Pierre (8/5): - Personnel compétent, conseils avisés. Chambre tout à fait correcte, bon rapport qualité -prix.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - We found the hotel staff to be very helpful and loved the views! We would’ve enjoyed a larger breakfast selection and usually had to visit the local supermarket to stalk up on extra goods. The hotel was close to town, which was nice!! We were able to able to get around easily.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Keurig hotel prijs kwaliteit is oke. Kamers iet wat klein badkamer verouderd
- LIGIA (10/5): Confortável e gracioso - Cordialidade dos funcionários
- Ryan (10/5): Excellent customer service - The service was top-notch. They held our bags while we went to visit the nearby glacier. The hotels feels more like a cosy B&B, with rustic charm, offering large bedrooms and nice garden view - plenty of spots to unwind with a good book. While for some being out of city may be difficult without a car, we enjoyed the quiet it provided. If you don't want to walk to town (~20mins), they offer dinner - must make reservations and pre-order.
- christiane (6/5): Très très très bruyant - 5 mois à l'avance nous avions demandé une chambre au premier étage de l'annexe et nous avons eu une chambre au rez-de-chaussée du bâtiment principal (petite chambre très très très bruyante et salle de bain également petite). On entendait le voisin ronfler.
Nous avons passés les 2 dernières nuits au rez-de-chaussée de l'annexe ( plus grande mais toujours le bruit du voisin du dessus)
Sinon l'accueil est chaleureux et le petit déjeuner quelconque
- David (10/5): Great hotel - The hotel food was beautiful and rooms really well set out. The staff spoke English very well and were most helpful. A gem of a hotel only 500 metres walk from the centre of town.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Friendly staff, very basic breakfast, paper thin wall, not Central enough
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This hotel is a little gem, comfortable beds, good breakfast ,an option to eat (a well cooked)dinner there as well. Can't praise the place highly enough. 10 minute walk from main street. Friendly and helpful staff.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Close to nature reserve and lake - We stayed one night on our way to another city. The hotel is eclectic and cozy. The staff was very kind and let us borrow bicycles to ride around town, which we appreciated. Breakfast was freshly prepared—yogurt, bread, granola, juice.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This is very nice homey property. Small and personal. Price was $92 USD per night. Nice eating area for breakfast. We didn't take any other meals here though. The rooms were nicely decorated although small. A great location - quiet but within walking distance of downtown. Also close to a great birding area - Reserva Natural Laguna Nimez.. We would stay here again.
- Richard (6/5): we moved - The room was tiny. The stairs were difficult especially with luggage. The staff was very nice but we moved to a different hotel in the same city for the remainder of our stay.
- E. (10/5): Nice hotel near the bird sanctuary - This hotel is quiet, a bit rustic and a short walk from the town center. It is located near the bird sanctuary and lagoon of Lagos Argentinos and while we hadn’t planned to visit, the sanctuary was both beautiful and relaxing in an otherwise busy visit. The hotel provides a very nice breakfast and dinner too if you make a reservation.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Staff and homemade breakfast are amazing. - Very nice hotel with terrific attention to details. Staff are extremely kind and helpful.
- Colin (8/5): Quiet lodge on the edge of town - The hotel is about ten minutes walk from the centre of town, so was nice and quiet and rural. It's only a few minutes walk from the bird reserve next to the lake, which is well worth a visit. We were in the new annexe next door, which was nice and comfortable, although because of the wooden floors you could definitely hear people upstairs.
Breakfast was nice, although not overly big - not an issue for us as we were usually up and out early. Lunch boxes were also provided for excursions, and parking was straightforward. Tea and muffins in the evening were a very nice, welcome touch after a long day out in the Patagonian wilds!
- Brenda (10/5): Like staying with family you like - The hotel staff is really welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. The tea time from 5-7 is a great way to relax. The dining room has a beautiful view of the lagoon. And the sitting area downstairs is a cozy place to relax. We were drinking our wine and they brought us some cheese to go with it. We really liked staying here.
