Distance from town

The hotel and staff were very good but the hotel is isolated and a 15 minute walk to town for restaurants.

The hotel building looks brand new and so is everything inside which makes the hotel extremely convenient. It's a 3 minute walk from the bus stop which is why we chose it, but it's about 20 minutes from the main street downtown. There are a couple of restaurants close by but we mostly took a taxi downtown for meals, costs about 3 USD each way. There is no air conditioning and it can get warm inside the room on a sunny day even if it's cool outside. Only part of the window opens so it wasn't easy to cool the room down. They should have considered a ceiling fan. The rooms are impeccably clean. The mattress was average in terms of comfort. The front desk staff was extremely helpful. They call taxis for you and even exchange your dollars for you. The breakfast was great with made to order eggs and it's available as early as 630am. Overall a great stay.

We had a fantastic stay at Hotel Destino Calafate! The room was spacious, impeccably clean, and met all our expectations. The staff was absolutely wonderful – always friendly, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. They went above and beyond to provide us with information, help organize transfers, and ensure everything during our stay went smoothly. Communication was effortless via WhatsApp, and the Wi-Fi was easy to access. The location is also very convenient, just a 15-minute walk to the city center, making it easy to explore the area while enjoying some quiet away from the hustle and bustle. We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Calafate.
