- Wayne (10/5): The perfect place to stay for a few nights in El Calafate. - A small but charming place to stay in El Calafate. It's a 2 minute walk to the main street we found everything we needed a short walk away. The staff were simply exceptional, both in the lead up to our arrival and during our time there. No faults from us. We loved it!
- Kentaro (10/5): コスパ最高!! - ・街の中心部に近い
徒歩10分程度で、朝からオープンしているパン屋やラム肉が有名なお店、お土産屋さんなどに行くことが出来る。好立地は旅行の味方。
・スタッフが優しい
丁寧に対応してくれた。
私たちは急遽フライト時間が前倒しになり、ツアーに参加出来ないところだったが、ツアー先から空港までのタクシー手配などの起点を利かせてくれて、無事に全て事なきを得た。全てが良き旅になった。
- Fernando (10/5): Un muy lindo hotel en El Calafate - Todo! El servicio del desayuno tiene que estar más atento a la reposición. En una ocasión estuvimos esperando el café 20 minutos y llegó tibio.
- Claude (9/5): -
- Elena (10/5): Уютная территория, пол дня еще сидела в общей зоне в ожидании рейса - Отличная локация, в номере есть все необходимое, очень радушный хост, помог мне с такси и экскурсиями на ледник.

- Sandra (10/5): Una estancia genuina y muy cómoda - Me gustó todo. La habitación cómoda y limpia, el lugar en pleno centro y muy tranquilo a la vez y el personal extraordinario. Además, nos sorprendieron con un espectáculo de tango durante la cena. Es un lugar 100% recomendable.
- Braga (8/5): -
- Valery (10/5): Great location with caring staff! - This place is in very convenient area, close to everything. The breakfast includes bread/cheese/ham/pastries/fruits and eggs are available for a small payment. The staff is truly caring about their visitors. I was running late for check in. I received detailed instructions with location of my room and how to get there. I appreciated Franco’s attention very much! They helped to arrange airport transfer for our flights.
- Xavier (9/5): - El personal es muy atento. Tienen en cuenta las necesidades de sus huéspedes y favorecen la estancia en todo momento. La comunicación con ellos es fluida antes incluso de llegar.
El alojamiento tiene un encanto particular, ya que te hace sentir cómodo y relajado. Un entorno muy agradable.
Las habitaciones son amplias y cómodas
Desayuno correcto
Se encuentra ubicado en pleno centro del Calafate El baño está un poco anticuado. Además los sobres de los jabones no disponen de apertura fácil.
- Edu Agüera (10/5): Muy buena experiencia en Kau - Alojamiento excelente, bien ubicado, el personal super amable y bien ubicado. Repetiría 100% Nada
- Octavio (9/5): Cómodo y bien ubicado para una estancia en Calafate - Muy buena localización, el personal es super amable y dan buenas recomendaciones. El desayuno podría ofrecer un poco más de variedad, pero era aceptable.
- Ronald (9/5): - Very accommodating with my flight changes and delays, letting me cancel first night I heard so much about the Argentina beef, but, honestly, I was not impressed with your cut, as it was very stringy fat, not marbling
- Cheryl (6/5): - Our bed was extremely hard.
- Anne (10/5): Hotel de charme bien placé - Petit hotel de charme bien placé, bon petit déjeuner et personnel accueillant Rien
- Patricia (8/5): -
- Salma (10/5): - Os funcionários são muito receptivos.
- linda (6/5): -
- Mina (9/5): Very friendly and supportive staff! - スタッフがとてもフレンドリーで、ツアーやバス、タクシーなど、いろんな手配を積極的にサポートしてくれた。朝食も種類は多くないけれど、クロワッサンは温めた置いてあるなど、気遣いのあるものだった。 よくなかった点ではないが、2階のお部屋だと階段で登る必要がある。2階部分がある1階のお部屋だと、2階の足音は気になる時がある。
- omar alfredo (10/5): -
- Marina (10/5): - Вежливый персонал. Хорошая организация процесса заселения . Номер на троих не большой , но всё в наличае. На улице шёл снег , номер отапливался . Нам было комфортно . Немного скудноватый завтрак для тех кто утром любит много кушать . Всё ок.
- Cécile (9/5): - Nous avons eu plusieurs problèmes lors de notre séjour à El calafate, l hotel a su nous trouver des solutions !! Un grand merci, ça a été fabuleux !

- Елена (9/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): Fantastic - Very clean and cosy property in El Calafate. The room was warm and the staff we excellent, so helpful and friendly. They looked after our luggage for us when we went trekking and it was waiting in our room for us when we returned 4 days later! Thank you 😊 Nil
- Mariana (8/5): - Está muy bien ubicado. Es un lugar cómodo y muy hogareño. Tiene espacios comunes al aire libre y bajo techo. La casa de té donde se sirve el desayuno es muy bonita y tiene variedad en su carta.
- Teresa (10/5): We loved Kau Kaleshen! - What a gem. The staff was so helpful both before and during our stay. They made recommendations regarding visiting Perito Moreno, currency exchange and restaurants. Laundry service is available at a reasonable cost. Breakfast is good and the restaurant is even better. Rooms are comfortable and I loved the courtyard and common room.
- Maria Nyholm (8/5): -
- alain (9/5): -
- Marisol-63 (10/5): Beautiful place - The hotel is beautiful. Great service and location.
- Todor (8/5): - noisy, you hear all neighbors
- Christian (9/5): -
- Abby (5/5): Worked for what I needed but wouldn’t choose it - Great location, friendly staff and convenient breakfast Felt dirty. Was super loud as walls and doors were thin so you heard everything your neighbors did. Key was hard to use.
- Louise (8/5): -
- Maura (6/5): - Posizione Rubinetti doccia rotti
- Margaret (8/5): This is a really friendly hotel, made So by the lovely staff. - The staff were so helpful. No patches on the windows to hold them open a little.
- anna (8/5): - Struttura molto carina , personale disponibile vicinissima al centro e anche alla stazione degli autobus. Lavanderia interna
- TRUDY (10/5): Perfect for me. Would stay again. - Super friendly and helpful. Great room which was pretty large.
- Claudia Maria Lidia (9/5): -
- Tibor (10/5): - Simple basic, more continental style vs full breakfast. Basics were all there but one thing I really like is a granola/muesli but I don't think they had that.
- Andrée (9/5): Très agréable pour découvrir la ville et surtout son célèbre glacier - L’accueil du personnel, la situation proche du centre, le restaurant ainsi que le living donnant sur le jardin Le lit un peu petit et l’isolation de notre chambre
- Mary (9/5): - Staff were wonderful, very helpful. Lovely garden area. Comfortable room. Excellent location. Uneven water pressure in sink.
- Ian (10/5): Great location for visiting the glacier and also a convenient stopover when travelling to El Chaltén - Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Lovely garden area with rooms on two sides. Great location, just a few minutes walk from the 'downtown' area. For what we paid this place is a bargain! Breakfast, although simple was fine for the price. As a base for a short stay it is perfect. We stayed on two separate occasions and didn't regret it at all. WI-FI could be temperamental.
- IOANNIS (8/5): - the reception personnel was exceptional infrastructure and linens could use a refresh
- Ian (10/5): Great base for visiting the glacier. - Fantastic location just a few minutes from downtown El Calafate. Amazingly helpful staff. Nothing.
- Jacobo Kevin (10/5): -
- Min (9/5): - The staff is very friendly and the place is clean and cozy.
- Danie (9/5): Lindo lugar - Muy coqueto, cerca del centro, mucha calidez. Para el desayuno, muy lento el reabastecimiento los primeros dias, el último día cambió la persona encargada y mejoró.
- Victor (8/5): -
- Gloria (10/5): Over all a great place to stay. - Loved this place. Well located and great staff. Patricia and all her recommendations were right on point. Water pressure on the hot water shower.
- Wladi (8/5): Alojamiento sencillo bien ubicado cerca de la calle principal - Buena ubicación cerca de la calle principal. Personal muy amable. Precio un poco alto para una habitación sencilla.
- Christine (8/5): If the WiFi and breakfast were improved it would be a great place to stay. - Very convenient location on a quiet road but just off the main road. Great for walking everywhere. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was simple and quite basic but had everything I needed. Lots of hot water, hairdryer, heating etc. Bed comfortable. Rooms are situated in a pretty cute garden. Guests can use a lounge/conservatory area that looks out into the garden. WiFi was very poor. Sometimes particularly at night it didn’t work. It appeared to be switched off! Breakfast wasn’t great, poor quality and definitely the most basic breakfast I have had during my month of travel in Argentina. No hot food, fruit was cut up but didn’t look fresh, one very sweat cereal. A shame as the restaurant where the breakfast is served does lovely evening meals.
- Jeff (10/5): -
- Gustavo (10/5): Excelente - Todo nos gustó las habitaciones súper espaciosas y limpias los chicos de recepción excelente y su ubicación inmejorable
- Gerd (9/5): Sehr ansprechnde Unterkunft. Ich habe mich dort sehr wohl gefühlt. - Das Frühstück war gut. Die Unterkunft hat ein nettes Ambiente. --
- Javi (9/5): -
- Joyce (9/5): Great place, good value for money, friendliest staff - We stayed at this hotel twice during our trip. The price/quality ratio is excellent. The rooms are basic but clean, and everything you need is there. There is also a cozy garden and a comfortable living room area that guests can use.
What really made the difference for us was the personal contact and hospitality. When we were unable to continue our journey due to strikes, this was the reason we decided to reach out to them. We kept in touch via WhatsApp, and as soon as a room became available, they immediately contacted us. Whenever we needed something, like arranging a taxi, they were always ready to help right away.
We would definitely recommend this place! -
- Pablo Javier (9/5): -
- Ellen (9/5): Ambiente muito agradável, funcionários educados, excelente localização. - Localização, ambiente, espaço do quarto e limpeza. Como sugestão, poderiam aumentar a largura do boxe para um maior conforto no banho. E também poderiam melhorar o café da manhã (iogurte, ovos, por exemplo)
