Pictures don’t quite make justice to the place. Good size room and so was the bathroom, bed was comfortable. Staff was very friendly and helpful, they even helped us book some tours to the glaciar park and other activities. Location was great, walking distance to a lot of restaurants and shops in town. Breakfast was okay and they don’t have a/c (which is not needed if your visit is during the cool temperature months)

The hotel was clean and the staff was very helpful and friendly. The rooms were very loud when other guests were walking by and talking, which is the reason for the low review. It was difficult to sleep through the noise.

Overall it was good, the only thing was the twin bed request that hadn't been taken into account but was fixed in the hour. And we had to wait for an extra day for the laundry, hopefully we had some spare clean clothes.

No es Hotel.
Lindo lugar. Pero no tiene, calefacción, las camas son duras como hostel, no tiene ningún tipo de servicio de comidas excepto desayuno continental. El staff muy bueno a pesar que nuevo pero no compensa para hacerlo hotel. Sin bar ni room service ni ayuda botones no competa para llegar a hotel.

Great place to stay to visit the Glaciars
Hotel is well - located. Breakfast is Excellent. Staff is friendly and helpful. They will exchange currency at Front Desk. El Calafante is mostly a Base for your daily excursions. This lodging is well-suited and more than adequate for this purpose. Upscale lodgings are available in this City - but are unnecessary- unless you've "got to have it"

Great location and staff
Fantastic location, really central for town and pickups which you can't fault, relaxed vibe and really helpful reception staff. The breakfast was okay but had an early start which was handy. Our room was showing signs of wear and tear but were made up daily. You could hear a lot of noise from the walkways which started early given folk were off and away on excursions - take earplugs.

Pleasant hotel in great location. A lot of small things missing. Minimal space for storage and no hooks for hanging towels, etc. A few more $$ towards what you'd normally find in a hotel would make this place excellent.
