    The stairs from the loft to the bathroom are steep with no handrail.

    We enjoyed our private cabin with breakfast, coffee, and tea in the cabin. Close to everything in this small town. Only a 4 block walk to the trailhead for Laguna de los Tres hike.

    We stayed in three different hotels in el chalten and this was by far our favorite. The bungalow was really spacious and clean, lovely breakfast delivered each day. Tea and coffee provided in the bungalow. Laundry service. Nice bathtub. Max on reception was our favorite!

    Basic and Overpriced. Friendly Staff.
    • Leisure trip

    • Quadruple Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    We had a room in the main building. The room was very compact with minimal decorations and furniture, not like on mist photos you see on the booking site. There is no view: our window faced small open outdoor area and another building across. Some people were hanging out in that area between building so there was no way past midnight so there was no way to sleep. For the price of over $150 per night USD, this was really very basic accommodations with zero charm. The only good part was staff members, who were friendly and tried to be accommodating.

    The bed wasn't that comfortable. The breakfast was mot too exciting - would be great with more healthy options.

    Good location close to the trails and as the town is not too big also a short wall to restaurants etc. Max was really great

    Sheets could have been a bit better. But it’s a minor detail.

    Mainly stayed at this place to enjoy the hiking trails around El Chalten. We liked the staff, they helped us with details on doing the Fitz Roy hike. They serve breakfast, best way to start a hike. They also sell lunch boxes that you can take for a hike. When you end your hike in the evening and come back tired, after a shower you can enjoy a cold beer that they sell at the front desk. Property is really cute and great staff.

    The shower head didn’t seem to have enough water pressure (?). Hope they could get it fixed. :) but it is still great!!!

    Great location: close to trail heads and the restaurants. The cabin for two was super cozy and love the food they gave us everyday! I travel a lot, and this is one of our most favorite stays! Strongly recommend!!!

    Not unique to the property but be aware that wifi connection in El Chalten is spotty and unreliable.

    Cozy and comfortable room in a lovely inn that's in a great location in El Chalten. You're just a short walk away from the main avenue where there are many restaurants (the same avenue also leads to the hiking trails). The included breakfast is quite varied and is a nice way to start the day. The staff were very nice and helpful - a particular thank you to Andrea who checked us in, provided useful information about the town, and even gave us advice on hikes. All in all, a terrific stay - highly recommended!

    We could hear noise from all the other rooms and the corridor, presumably due to the way the building was constructed. It would be nice to have some more shelves/tables to put things. The small shelves in the bathroom all sloped, so things fell off if we used them.

    Lovely staff, always giving us so much helpful information about hikes and the local area. Breakfast was delicious, including lovely coffee and fresh fruit salad. We were always warm in the room. Very convenient to park our car outside.

    This was a great place to stay! The apartment was really nice and spacious, bed was comfy and the little breakfast tray for each morning well stocked and plentiful. But the real stars were the staff, with Andrea and Dardo super helpful with advice for the town and trekking and food recommendations and for getting things sorted like taxis etc... I would 100% recommend staying here!

    The sheets had old stains on them. We were only there for a few days and it seemed like it was washed but just stained… We also had to kill a few bugs on the floor daily. Not cockroaches - I can’t remember the name but it looked like long ants. Pretty sure it’s just because of nature but it was still not ideal.

    Front desk staff Andrea was very helpful giving us recommendations for food and tips for hiking. They let us store our luggage and hang out in the common space after we checked out. They set up toast and milk and juice in your room. There’s also a mini kitchen so you could cook if you wanted. Location was kinda off main path but still within walking distance to main trailheads.

    could have a glass shower in the bathroom, as the water spreads throughout the bathroom and there was no floor towel either

    This establishment is wonderful. The front desk staff is exceptional - helpful, kind and professional. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Breakfast was included, which was also very nice. I eat gluten free and they had gluten free breakfast pastries which was a real treat! They kindly let us store our luggage after checkout as we had a hike scheduled. We picked up our luggage late in the day. Everything was safe and secure. I highly recommend. Enjoy.
