Guest Reviews
- Veronica (7/5): - Good location, delightful and helpful staff, very good breakfast. Good size room with fridge. Very kindly drove me to the bus station as it was raining and no taxis available. Just a trickle of hot water in unit 1 shower.
- Min (10/5): - Really friendly staff and the location close to the bus station was extremely convenient for us travellers using the bus to and from el chalten! The room was also spacious for staying a few days and recuperating from all the hiking. I only wish the Patagonian weather was better during our stay!
- Gisela (5/5): - Zimmer recht groß. Lage war ruhig und dennoch zentral. Parkplatz an der Straße. Das Zimmer war sehr einfach ausgestattet. Es gab nur einen Mini-Safe, in dem man außer Pass nichts unterbringen konnte. Zahlung mit Kreditkarte verteuerte den Preis aufgrund eines schlechten Kurses. Insgesamt ein schlechtes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis für das gebuchte Zimmer.
- Laura (10/5): -
- Nicola (8/5): Super Lage mit netten Gastgebern und umfangreichem Frühstück - Sehr gute Lage, umfangreiches Frühstück, gute Beratung zu Trails und Wetter. Gute, heisse Dusche Leider gab es für unser Zimmer keine Möglichkeit, bei schönem Wetter draußen zu sitzen. Die Überdecke war sehr schwer , sodass es nachts unangenehm im Bett war
- DARIO RUBEN (10/5): Excepcional lugar - Supe calentito el lugar! Cómodo y limpio! La amabilidad y atención excelente tanto de Nicolás como Patricia! Gracias por los hermoso días que pasamos! Nada! Todo me gustó
- Mauricio (10/5): Um dos melhores de Chalten - Ótima localização. Café da manhã muito bom. Proprietários simplesmente geniais! Nao tenho reclamações
- Marina (10/5): Execelente estadia no paraíso da Patagônia - Quarto amplo e espaço, banheiro amplo com chuveiro quente. Café da manhã bem gostoso.
Patrica e os outros anfitriões são extremamente prestativos com instruções e dicas! Nos sentimos em casa!
Amamos e adoraríamos voltar! É possível ouvir um pouco de barulho dos quartos vizinhos, mas como a dinâmica da cidade incentiva todos a acordarem cedo, isso não atrapalha tanto!
- Laís (10/5): -
- DIDIER (9/5): - L'extrême amabilité du personnel
L'emplacement de premier choix
Le petit déjeuner copieux avec des fruits frais et des gâteaux faits maison
literie confortable
- Roland (9/5): - Nette und hilfsbereite Gastgeber, gutes Frühstück. Die Bettdecke war mir zu schwer.
- Gloria (10/5): Great place to stay - Awesome customer service, Patricia was a delight with all her great recommendations.
Great location, very cleaned place. Shower pressure
- Frédéric (10/5): Absolument parfait. Séjour réussi garanti. - TOUT.
Tout était parfait : de l’accueil souriant, à la chambre propre et bien aménagée, aux conseils et recommandations sur mesure pour les randonnées ou curiosités locales. Et que dire du petit déjeuner : généreux, varié, et vraiment fait maison ! Pain de mie toasté, pudding ou tarte ou banana bread, jus d’orange… un régal avant d’attaquer le Fitz Roy.
Patricia règne ici en maîtresse de maison. Sa préoccupation absolue : tout faire pour qu’on se sente comme chez soi. D’une attention rare. RAS
- Lola (10/5): Excelente - El personal súper amable, siempre con buena energía y dispuestos a darnos las mejores recomendaciones!
El desayuno casero y abundante.
Las instalaciones, la ubicación, las camas, todo! Solo diría que un baño para cinco personas es un poco incómodo.
- yael (10/5): - ארוח על ידי משפחה מקסימה
עזרו מאוד בארגון
יחס חביבי וחם
היחידה היתה נוחה מאוד עם נוף מקסים והמקלחת נהדרת
- Susan (9/5): We highly recommend for you to stay here if you want good value for your money and welcoming hosts - The the owner is incredible. She makes you feel very comfortable. They have the most amazing breakfast and they help you with where to go and what to do. The room is very clean very functional and a good size. All was good
- Chiuyun (9/5): - Convenient location with only 6 mins walk to bus station. The hosts are very warm and knowledgeable. This is the best stay I have in Patagonia area.
- Vladimír (10/5): -
- Melih (9/5): - Great stuff, very helpful. Smiling and taking care of everything you need.
- Greg (8/5): Wonderful home base for epic hiking run by friendly family who was sweet and helpful - It is family run and everyone was so super friendly and helpful. Great breakfast included. Beautiful view from property of the mountains peaks. With the 2 stories and outside stairs it was very noisy when people came and went. Rooms a little older.
- Catherine (9/5): - Good location, nice breakfast wonderful staff Shower door didn’t open and close well
- Magie (9/5): פשוט מומלץ ביותר - בעיקר הצוות מאיר הפנים, המיקום וארוחת הבוקר המצויינת שהייתה מפתיעה ביותר
- Kirill (10/5): -
- remy (8/5): Bon hôtel 👍 - On est resté deux nuits. On nous a changé de chambre entre les nuits parce que cela arrangeait l’hôtel
1 ère chambre bien, deuxième moyenne car lit à l’étage et salle de bain en bas…
Petit dej excellent
Personnel adorable
- Pablo Javier (8/5): - El cuarto
- Llorenc (6/5): - La simpatia del personal. Petits detalls com endolls despenjants, aixetes que no tanquen be, etx.... Hotel amb falta de manteniment evident.
- Giovanni (7/5): El Chalten, nuestro trekking al Fitz Roy han sido un experiencia única e inolvidable. - La experiencia en este hotel fue en general muy agradable. El desayuno era realmente muy bueno, variado y de calidad.
Además, la propietaria que se encontraba en la sala del desayuno fue siempre muy atenta, amable y cercana, una persona realmente encantadora que hace sentir a los huéspedes bienvenidos. Como único aspecto a mejorar, el mobiliario y las instalaciones del baño mal cuidados y algo deteriorados, aunque esto no afectó de manera importante a la estancia.
- Lesper (10/5): I would stay with them again! - Breakfast was delicious. The staff was always very helpful and accommodating. They also helped us figure out how to get to each hike and which day would be best given weather conditions. Only a bit warm when we got in because unusual amount of sunshine. Open windows helped wit that.
- ben david (10/5): - דירה מרווחת וגדולה, נקיה מאוד, ומנוקה כל יום! מיקום מעולה במרכז העיר וקרוב למסלולים.
ארוחת בוקר מצויינת עם מאפים תוצרת בית של פטריסיה!
פטריסיה וניקו מקסימים! עוזרים בהסברים על המסלולים וקשובים לכל בקשה!
ממליצה מאוד!
היתה לנו שהות נהדרת באל צ'לטן!

- Gizem (10/5): - Patricia is the sweetest host ever! She made us feel very welcome and gave us great recommendations. The room is quite large, and the location is great, only ~10 minute walk from the bus station and near many restaurants, shops and cafes. Breakfast had a good variety and they also serve an early breakfast at 7.15 for those who will start their hikes early. Heating, hot water and wifi all work great!
- LUCIANA (8/5): - La atención de los dueños. Un poco incómodo para 5 personas . Pero eso no opacó nuestra estancia.
- Jill (10/5): Fond memories - Great hosts, good advice on hiking and good breakfast. Property is simple no frills accommodation which suited our trip The shower needs a better showerhead
- Noam (10/5): Great stay in el chalten! - Had a great stay in el chalten, great location. Good setup for a small family. Hosts were extremely welcoming and helpful.
- Daniele (10/5): -
- Daniela (10/5): - Tutto, bella struttura, ottima colazione, proprietari molto disponibili!
- alessandro (9/5): - Quasi tutto Non è un vero e proprio hotel. Costa veramente troppo
- Adam (8/5): -
- Alberto Matias (10/5): - Exelente lugar y cerca de todo, la atención inmejorable
- Eleonora (9/5): Lovely place to stay, very very kind people managing it! - Staff was really lovely! The room is basic but comfortable. Lots of light coming in from the windows (like in most places we slept in in Argentina).
- silvina (9/5): Cabañas cómodas, accesibles y cordialmente atendidas - Ubicación, atención del personal, desayuno Nada en especial. Quizá el baño abajo y las habitaciones arriba
- Vjls (9/5): - The breakfast was good with fresh fruits cut in a glass, toasted bread, coffee, milk, tea, ham and cheese, scrambled/fried eggs, jam, homemade cake different every day. The owners were very friendly and welcome, helpful. The room was comfortable, hot shower no matter the time of the day.
Very good location. The price is a little bit too much for what it offers compared to Europe, but this is the situation in El Chalten.
- Jake (10/5): -
- Jodi (10/5): The staff here was unbelievably kind and helpful to us!! Best stay! -
- Eva (10/5): Un petit cocon au cœur du village! - Tout ! L’emplacement est parfait. Le petit déjeuner est complet et copieux, parfait avant de partir randonnée. Et le personnel est au petit soin. Patricia est un véritable amour, une seconde maman au petit soin pour nous. La chambre est spacieuse et très propre. Nous avons adoré notre séjour ! Rien
- Samir (9/5): Great location, staff and breakfast to explore el Chalten. Good value! - The people running the place are super friendly. The breakfast is fantastic with homemade cake, eggs, bread, etc.
The place is super close to the bus station and the restaurants and shops of el Chalten. The rooms are big and have all you need. The beds are a little bit narrow and their location forms an alley to the bathroom. I feel they could be positioned in another way to make the room more functional.
- renate (10/5): - Ducha do banho é forte e quente, uma maravilha!
Os proprietários são muito gentis e tratam os hóspedes com toda atenção possível.
O quarto é espaçoso, limpo, com colchões e travesseiros novos e limpos.
Muito bem localizado.
- angeliquedusud (10/5): Parfait pour une ou deux nuits - L'emplacement juste à côté des randonnées. Le personnel très gentil. Bon petit déjeuner. Très propre.
- Fulvia (9/5): - Accoglienza familiare, proprietari gentili e disponibili. Camera pulita. Parcheggio in strada senza problemi. Colazione ricca e varia (dolci fatti in casa)
- Martin (8/5): - Great breakfast and very kindly and helpfull staff
- Andrea (10/5): -
- Kevin (10/5): Great place for a family stay. Room(s) a little small, but fantastic staff and very comfortable. - Incredibly friendly and helpful staff in a great location. Just off the main drive in town, but perfectly located. Clean, comfortable and enjoyable experience.
- Marcel (10/5): Great experience thanks to all the hotel staff - The property is great and the staff makes sure you feel like home.
- Carl (8/5): Solid option for El Chalten - The husband and wife operators of the property, Patricia and Nico, are very nice people. They're not fluent in English but we communicated with them without much difficulty and they were helpful in every way from weather and hiking advice and carrying our bags to our rooms (Nico) to toasting the bread that I brought with me to breakfasts for me (Patricia). The place itself is new and modern, and unlike some places that lack elevators in this region, there are only 2 levels so you don't have to negotiate multiple levels of stairs. Housekeeping makes the beds, changes the sheets and straightens the room every day. Plenty of parking on the street in front of the rooms. Mainly the beds and bed covering. The twin beds are very small and narrow and the bedcover looked great but was heavy and difficult to adjust during the night. There was loud music from neighbors until after midnight one or two nights but that was Christmas eve and night. It was quiet other nights as I recall.

- feteira ferreira vale (9/5): Ótima recepção, ótimo local e boa limpeza. - Boa cama, lençóis, limpeza, local e excelente acolhimento. Chuveiro.
- Sylvie Godet (9/5): Séjour agréable - Hôtel idéalement situé calme et confortable. Équipe charmante Un peu cher par rapport aux hôtels d'Argentine
- Monica (10/5): -
- Jose Javier (9/5): Quarto com vistas ao pico Fitz Roy. - Amabilidade da Patrícia e sua família, localização e as vistas desde os quartos do piso superior. Café da manhã ótimo. Tudo deu certo.
- Parveen (9/5): - Breakfast was very satisfying and served fast. The hosts were very friendly and Patricia gave us some very good advice. The host also helped us out in a tricky situation. Can’t thank them enough. A bigger safe deposit box would be well appreciated.
- Felix (8/5): Die Unterkunft ist sehr sauber, geräumig und das Personal ist extrem hilfsbereit, nett und herzlich. Ich würde jederzeit -
- Julia (9/5): Old-fashioned hospitality in the best sense of the term. - The host greeted us upon arrival, showed us to the room and was available to provide any needed assistance.
Super sweet and friendly, like you are a long awaited distant relative that came to visit and she is happy to see you.
The room was squeaky clean - the cleanest we have encountered in recent travels.
Excellent breakfast with toasted homemade bread, cake, yogurt, fruit and fresh made eggs, if desired - all served with a smile by the lovely host.
This place hits it out of the park with the level of hospitality - something that is exceedingly rare these days. The wi-fi in our room was a bit flaky, but we didn't travel to Patagonia to hang online much, so was not a big deal for us.
- Maciej (8/5): -
- Dana (10/5): Super Unterkunft in El Chaltén - Sehr nettes Personal, gutes Frühstück, das Zimmer war schön warm und gemütlich. Wir würden diese Unterkunft wieder wählen!
- Ines (9/5): - Accoglienza calorosa, proprietari molto gentili e disponibili.
Possibilità di avere la colazione anche se si parte presto per il trekking.
Posizione molto comoda per raggiungere i sentieri. Niente
- Laura (10/5): Great place- highly recommend - Amazing family run business. Everyone was super helpful. They helped us plan our treks and had great recommendations for food and also activities when the weather wasn't cooperative. It's not fancy, but well worth a stay. The only minor complaint is that the twin beds were short and narrow. I'm thrilled, though, that they offered twin beds and it was good enough.
- Clare (10/5): - Loved everything!
The staff were exceptionally kind and helpful, the homemade breakfast - delicious, the apartment wonderfully comfortable and we were able to cook our own meal in the evening when we were too tired to go out.
The location was perfect as so close to everything and a superb view of Mount Fitzroy to wake up to.
I didn't want to leave! Nothing to dislike here
- Adrienne (9/5): Perfect base for several days of foul weather hiking! - Great hospitality and super friendly. Patricia and Nico gave us terrific advice and suggestions for our hikes during our visit. Also a great location - away from the main street but very close to everything. Lastly, we enjoyed the delicious home cooked breakfasts. We didn’t love the blankets, which were unusual. But honestly it was a very small thing!
- Xu (9/5): Superb -
- Andrija (10/5): Exceptional - Everything is excellent here, the hosts, the accomodation, location and breakfast. Great pizza and grill across the street.
Can't reccomend it enough!! We will stay here if we come back to el chalten.
- Donald (9/5): This hotel worked great for us and we would stay there again if going back to El Chalten - Clean and comfortable room including a refrigerator. Located near bus station and near the main area for shops and restaurants. The owner was super friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about all the local hikes.
- Pingrong (8/5): Overall very good staying - Location, super friendly hosts, clean, nice breakfast with homemade breads, pound cake, fresh fruit cup, good coffee, yogurt, and made to order eggs. Bathroom design has door hits the toilet and hairdryer was directly wired to the wall. There is no place to hang the towels.
- Jane (10/5): Exceptional - The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They guided us on the weather and helped make a plan for each day. It was perfectly located with a view of fitz. Near the supermarket and nice restaurants. Very comfortable facilities, beds and it was very clean. Breakfast was excellent setting us up for the day. Also a lovely place to relax. Nothing.
- Linas (7/5): Good - Location, staff Too expensive
- Rimantas (9/5): Superb -
- Eugen (9/5): Ideal base for idyllic El Chaltén - Immediately upon arrival we were greeted by very helpful and and kind staff members and it was a very good start of our short stay in El Chaltén. The room we were given was really a good one, well taken care of, clean, bright and comfortable. The parking was provided on public road with low intensity traffic. The heating was automatic and I would say ideal for mountainous chill night conditions. It was a real good night rest. The property itself is ideally located within this small mountainous town and it is easy to find all the necessary places like shops and restaurants within the walking distance. Indeed, a very good and recommended place to stay during a visit to El Chaltén. The only tiny shortcoming was a fixed wall shower that does not allow a proper body showering.
- Simon (10/5): Perfect place in El Chalten - Good location, great view of the mountains, very friendly and helpful owners/staff, clean, comfortable and quiet. Good breakfast!
- Bob (9/5): Very pleasant, made very welcome - Great people, location, breakfast The room was a bit austere and basic
- Sharon (10/5): Warm friendly staff … a perfect stay. - Patricia was so sweet. She made sure all her guests were welcome. The breakfast had a little bit of everything and the coffee was amazing. It was close to everything. 2 great restaurants right across the street. The room had all the necessities and was clean. Nothing. It was perfect.
- Stokes (7/5): Spectacular scenery, overpriced accommodation! - The owners/staff were lovely, breakfast home cooked, excellent. El Chaltern, the towns accommodation is overpriced, extortion from the visitos.. The room was hugely overpriced.
- Namit (10/5): Exceptional -
- Edwin (10/5): Exceptional - Absolutely love this place! Clean! Modern! And very easy check-in
- Katya (10/5): Séjour formidable - Hôtel très très sympathique à recommander absolument ! Les patrons sont serviables et aux petits soins : renseignements, réservations de bus, météo,… tout est parfait ! Nous avons séjourné 3 nuits et y retournerons avec grand plaisir :-) ! Merci pour l’accueil
- Noam (9/5): Perfect for an El Chalten adventure - The hosts were very hospitable and knowledgeable, the shower was excellent, lovely breakfast and great location. All good
- Sharon (10/5): Great expo - Host family is warm and helpful. They offer fresh breakfast and freshly cooked eggs. Nothing
- Lucie (10/5): - Perfect location and excellent hosts!
- Simon (8/5): Very good -
- Michael (9/5): very satisfied - excellent and helpful Staff
- Kalai (10/5): Exceptional - Helpful host, lots of space, great location. Bedrooms upstairs, bathroom downstairs.
