A lovely and very comfortable hotel with very friendly staff. We spent Christmas Eve here and had a very nice Christmas dinner too. The restaurant and room service is a little on the expensive side, but the quality is very good. Would recommend.

Great views, nice rooms

Hotel has beautiful views. Hotel is nice and breakfast is very good. Rooms are dated and a little small… sound travels thru the walls very easily. Note the hotel is outside of town, need a car or bus, too far to walk.

My husband and I had a great experience at this hotel. The staff were amazing. Most of them spoke English and helped coordinate a tour for us and a dinner reservation in downtown. Kalen, in particular, was extremely helpful and we were lucky to have met him and stayed there. Highly recommend for those visiting El Calafate!
