The hotel has a fantastic view! It's simple, but very well-kept, and has a very good landscaping. We stayed in the 2 bedroom cabana. Our kids were able to run and play with the dogs. It is a little far from the downtown area (about 2 miles) but we had a rental car so it was not a major problem.... More

We (me, wife and daughter) stayed for 3 nights in January 2013, coming from Chile. We had a very good time in El Calafate. Room was clean and comfortable with little kitchen. No air conditioning, but the weather was cool. The breakfast was simple but very good. The staff was really nice and helpful. The city center is a little... More

This hotel is a delight. The reception/breakfast area has stunning views over Lago Argentino through an architecturally beautiful window. The furniture there is sumptuous, enticing you to recline and really appreciate the scenery. The log fire creates a real atmosphere, as does the gentle music (think Enya). The bedrooms are stylish and quite luxurious- logs in the walls, plush thick... More

Gorgeous building, amazing lake view, friendly and helpful staff, lovely room. It is based out of town, but it's a pleasant walk or a cheap taxi... And as a result of the location, it is quiet and peaceful. And the scenery is stunning. Overall a wonderful stay. We wouldn't stay anywhere else if we ever return to El Calafate.

On the surface there's nothing wrong with Blanca, it has a cabin like feel with lots of wood and stone, the people are nice, and it has some amazing views of the lake. It was a little outside of town, but nothing more than a 30 peso cab ride and we walked in a few times, which only took about... More

This a small hotel located about 4 km west of the town centre, which is both an advantage and a drawback. It has beautiful views over the lake and they've made the most of this by installing huge glass windows everywhere. The lounge area is really nice to just sit and relax in. There is a possibility to dine there... More

The hotel was beautiful and exactly what we hoped for when visiting El Calafate. When you arrive you immediately see the amazing views of Lago Argentina and Patagonian hills through the lobby windows. The staff is extremely kind, accommodating and helpful with excursions, restaurants and transportation. The rooms are quaint and charming with all of the amenities you might need.... More

Definitely a 'couples' place to stay as stated in previous reviews and in our view well worth it's status as one of the most romantic hotels in El Calafate according to Tripadvisor! LIke most of the better hotels in El Calafate, 'Blanca Patagonia' is located slightly out of town at the western edge of the town, up a reasonably steep... More

This place is away from town, so you will need to commute by taxi (~ US$5 each way), or by car if you rent one. The design of the lobby is impressive, with a huge window overlooking the Lago Argentino. Lots of wood and exposed beams, rustic coutry style with nice decorative touches, including the huge candelabra. We got a... More
