Hotels on the Lake in Santa Cruz Province from $53

"Everything was wonderful!"

"Perfect location if you upgraded to room with a view. Breakfast was wonderful and the restaurant had amazing views. "

"Our stay at Design Suites Hotel in El Calafate was absolutely fantastic—easily one of the best places to stay in the area. The highlight? Without a doubt, the breathtaking view of Lake Argentino. If you’re booking, make sure to reserve a room facing the lake—it’s truly unforgettable, especially at sunrise and sunset. The hotel itself was spotless, well-maintained, and very comfortable. The staff went above and beyond to be welcoming and helpful, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. We also found that having a rental car made a big difference. It gave us the flexibility to easily access the main street in El Calafate and explore the surrounding areas without any hassle. Overall, a perfect blend of comfort, scenery, and convenience—highly recommended for anyone visiting Patagonia."

"A bit of a mixed bag. The positives are it's a very quiet location, the staff are friendly and helpful,I had a couple of technical issues with the room and the engineer came to fix them within minutes, and the room was clean and comfortable. I also booked the apartment which was very spacious and with a good kitchenette. The negatives are their photo showed a sofa but I didn't have one, just a stored away bed. This meant I only had chairs to rest on, or lay on the bed. It's a ground floor appt but instead of a net curtain there is just a roller blind so you either have semi darkness and privacy, or daylight and no privacy while the water in the shower kept changing temperature on its own. The WiFi was also weak. The property is in a new area being built and It's about a 15 min walk into town. That said it did have it's own bar and restaurant and you receive a free drinks voucher when checking in Overall it was ok, but I wouldn't go back"
