    The Internet connection (not the WiFi connection) was not very good. I believe that is a common issue with the town, not the hotel.

    The host Maria was super calm and super helpful. The room was very clean. The view from the dinning was memorable. It will be my hotel choice when I visit El Chaltan again.

    It was a bit pricey (but then everything is pricey in Chaltén)

    The room was big, bed was super confortable, also great bathroom. Staff was super friendly and helpful. There is a communal kitchen you can use.

    Breakfast is not the best, is very basic and it's not vegan/vegetarian inclusive, the location has a lot of humidity and the room smells a lot we had to leave the window open a lot

    El Chaten accommodation prices was the highest in all of the cities we were in Argentina.

    Fantastic location close to town centre and lots of restaurants around. Close to the starting point of many trails. Superb staff and we liked having access to the kitchen. Quick response to any issues that come up. Free parking.

    The shower leaked. Some people didn’t know English well.

    The place is quite good. Nice flower garden is nearby the hotel. The receptionist was very helpful. The place is close to the start of the hiking. Morning meal was scarce a bit. The road to hotel is very poor and if you have a suitcase to roll please be sure you have a strong hands.

    Hosteria Koonek was an amazing place to stay. We only had one night here but it was by far the best place we stayed in Chaltèn and we were sad to leave! The breakfast was great, the staff was amazing, the beds were very comfortable, shower was really nice, and having access to a kitchen was very convenient. We wouldn’t have changed anything.

    Koonek was a perfect place for our stay in El Chalten. It's located in a quiet area, 5 minutes walk to all the restaurants/shops and close to the start of a lot of the hiking trails. Maria was super helpful with any of our questions, offered great recommendations depending on the weather and the staff did all they could to make our stay enjoyable.

    Everything is okay except the hot water shower is very low pressure, almost like a dripping than a shower. Maybe part of cost saving.

    The owner, Maria is very helpful and kind. Make me feel comfortable

    it was a little weird that the kitchen for guests to use was in a separate building. with the weather as windy as it is, it doesn’t make you want to go out there just to enjoy a meal

    The host was extremely generous and helpful with all of our needs- a very kind and thoughtful person. The room was warm and comfortable with cosy lighting. We liked it a lot and slept very well. The location perfect - right next to the start of the treks and nearby some excellent restaurants and shops. The breakfast was good, with different options and nice strong coffee. We enjoyed the communal kitchen for cooking and watching TV on a rainy day. We enjoyed were so happy we decided to extend our stay.
