I spent the night here recently when in El Calafate to visit the Perito Moreno Glacier. This hotel is an amazing oasis. El Calafate itself is a bit small, and kind of rough and tumble. This property, on the other hand, is quite plush-looking/feeling. The lobby is beautifully decorated and the restaurant is fantastic. Great service by everyone and amazing... More

We had an end of corridor room so no problems with noise as reported by others. The bedroom was good but nothing special. Breakfast was ok if you arrived early [ 06.30] but at 7.30 the following day it appears nothing gets replenished or kept warm as the hot food was nearly cold. We had ordered a packed lunch for...

Situated 3km from El Calafate in a raised position, the views of the lake and mountains are amazing. The rooms are comfortable and clean but the highest accolade goes to the reception, lounge and dining room areas which are very modern with sumptuous sofas and a fire in the lounge/reception. There was a good and tasty selection of breakfast foods... More

Situated up on a hill on the outskirts of town, this is a modern and very well run hotel. Rooms are spacious and the buffet breakfast is very good. Attentive and helpful staff make this a top choice. The hotel runs a shuttle service from mid afternoon until around midnight which can take you to and from the town -... More

What a great location with superb views overlooking the lakes and hills. Out of town but that is an advantage and there is a regular shuttle bus or easy to find cheap taxis. Rooms clean and fine for a short stay. Friendly staff. Good restaurants better than most in town. None of the other hotels in Calafate looked as good.

While the hotel is set back from the lake, it's hard to deny the spectacular views. Rooms are everything you need and nothing more. Wifi was atrocious, but this is Patagonia, what do you expect? Shuttle service is free to and from the town and the staff is very accommodating, they're willing to help arrange any activities or restaurant reservations... More

Very attractive lobby, pool and bathroom. Rooms were ok, overheated, as everything seems to be in the area... do you really need the A/C on at the same time as the heating (in the restaurant - we just left the window open as it was 6 degrees centigrade outside - about 40 F). Great view! Excellent service at the restaurant,... More
