The breakfast had no options and didn’t have even eggs. Even the coffee was not fresh. There was no hot water in our room and had to ask the personnel to come and take a look.

Cozy, colorful garden, friendly front desk!

We travelled to Calafate in a family plan for four adults, my two daughters over 40, and my closest friend - like sister- and me, over 70. We were celebrating the three of them BDs, past in February and April, and late May for one of them. The place was amazing, cute, very convenient location, one block apart of the Main avenue of this small town. Even if it was out of peak season, the guys from the front desk, were super attentive to all our questions, gave us excellent tips and recommendations for places to have lunch or dinner or things to do. They prepared for us the breakfast that we could take in a very cozy room with fire place, armchairs, small tables, books to read and with a wide window to the garden, great in fall colors. Thank you guys! Lionel y Franco! We know now where to go when we come back to Calafate!

Average experience due to bugs in room/smell from heater? Breakfast is a very small selection and not great for preparing for all day excursions. Staff is incredibly warm, friendly, and helpful. Location is good

A Nice Respite from Travel

Cute, cozy, comfortable, quiet. A nice place to stay after a couple of days of air travel. Very convenient to "downtown" El Calafate for walking, snooping, and grabbing a bite to eat. The courtyard area was a nice place to hang out. Enjoyed the dining area too. Breakfast was basic and simple but good.

Quiet hotel in a convenient area

The hotel is very conveniently located one street away from the Main Street, and yet it is very quiet, which we enjoyed. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The bathrooms could be a little cleaner though, and the breakfast options more varied. Nonetheless it is a good place to stay. We had a rental car and could easily park it on the street for free, right in front of the hotel.
