My friend and I stayed at the hostel for 5 nights in a private room and I can say that one big plus of this hostel is its staff. The guys at the reception did a really great job in helping to organize our day trips and tours. We chose the tours we wanted to do upon arrival, they booked... more

I loved the very friendly atmosphere of the hostel. The hostel is well organized so that travellers can communicate. You will get good information how you should travel in El Calafate and around. more

We stayed here for three nights in a private room which was very comfortable. The staff were very helpful and knowledgeable, we booked all our tours and the bus to El Chalten through them. I have to say that the photos on their website doesn't do justice to the place, it looks much better in person! The common room has... more

In El Calafate we stayed in a double en suite room at the America Del Sur Hostel. I can actually recommend this place. They are extremely helpful and made the bookings for us for the boat tour and mini-trekking. . At first we felt a little out of place as we were the older crowd as we are in our... more

more run down that their BA hostel but otherwise nice place if you are not the person looking for 4-5 stars, carpets on the floor, etc. Mostly for backpackers but as well more relaxed luggage travelers. The rooms are not the newest ones, very small but if you go there to sleep only, they are very good and nice to... more

As good as most places you'll stay in Argentina. The staff give you a great run down on the hostel, the town and the activities on offer and will book anything you need.

I can't say enough about this place. It is spotlessly clean, extremely well maintained, the showers are great, it is well located and has amazing views from the common area. Aside from having all these check marks, what sets this place aside is its staff and that is the mark of any well managed hostel or hotel. The staff here... more

I join the rest of the reviews in applauding the wonderful staff, who really do take the time to sit down with you when you arrive to discuss activities and make you feel at home. There is a nice vibe at the hostel, promoted I think in large part by the beautiful common space with the huge bay windows and... more

Our family of 4 spent a week here during our trip through Patagonia and had a wonderful time. Friendliest and most helpful staff we have ever encountered in all our travels - they had all the information on tours, and they book them for you right there and charge them to your account. The guys even gave my daughters juggling... more
