A nice property in the heart of el calafate. Modern and clean. Only negative is the staff who were quite unfriendly to the guests. That was quite disappointing especially considering how nice everyone is in town.

Comfortable and spacious
Best breakfast and a modern, comfortable stay! Walking distance to trailheads, restaurants, and bus terminal. Big comfy bed after a long day of hiking and the most amazing breakfast to kick off our hikes. A luxury stay while we were in Patagonia and well worth it.

We stayed only for one night. But even in one night staff tried their level beat to help us. Their communication was top notch. Helped arranging morning pick up for Rio electrico at 11 pm at night also. Breakfast is well oragnaised. Room is decent in size. Hotle has character. If you like chain hotels, this will be big upgrade. Cristian and Luciana were wondeful..If I ever come back to El Chalten, I will be staying here again.

The BEST shower in all of Patagonia!!
I loved my stay here! The bed was comfortable, the closet had plenty of room for my gear and a safe, and the shower! Oh my God. When you’ve just hiked 14 miles, the shower in this Hosteria is the best. I’ve lived in many places in the world and in the United States and the water pressure in this shower was the best. The staff was super helpful before my arrival with info (via WhatsApp) and after I arrived (guidance on hikes, dinner, etc). I had their packed lunch which was good. Breakfast was pastries/toast, eggs, yogurt, fruit, etc. Very close to Laguna Torre trek but a little bit of a walk from Laguna de los Tres trek. They did my laundry for my while I was out trekking one day which was great. I would def stay here again!!!

Cute little B&B kind of property. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The complimentary breakfast (especially the homemade yogurt) was so good and the $10 packed lunches they offer were convenient for taking on-the-go. Comfy bed and the water pressure in the shower was phenomenol. Seriously the BEST shower I took while in Patagonia. I'd definitely stay here again when in El Chalten.

Quiet, great value, comfortable
Stayed in the quiet detached bungalow. This seems to be brand new and it was very quiet. There was an EXCELLENT breakfast and this was a perfect base for our treks into the nearby mountains. WiFi could be faster but can’t really complain considering the location. It’s a bit further of a walk from most restaurants/bars but that means 3-5mins more than elsewhere. Definitely the best option in town for the price

A truly wonderful place that became my home for the week I was in Patagonia. It's rare to receive such an amazing personal attention from staff in a hotel. Great location, great breakfast, lovely rooms but most importantly - fabulous people running it! Thank you!
