The hotel was a very good value. Our room was small but had everything we needed. The staff was helpful in finding taxi service for us and storing our luggage. Breakfast was quite good. And the location cannot be beat. I strongly recommend the pizza place that is to the right as you exit the hotel.

This place was absolutely perfect for our stay!  we enjoyed the big window looking out over the water and watching the snowfall. The room was very cozy and we enjoyed it so much. We had dinner there several times. The food at the hotel was amazing and the staff was really wonderful, helping us arrange for transport, do our laundry, and like I said, bring us food. It was a perfect and romantic stay!

FAQs about hotels in El Calafate

Patagonia's Glacier Paradise

El Calafate is a small city in Argentinean Patagonia, situated in the foothills of the Andes and on the shores of Argentino Lake. Blending colourful wooden houses and Alpine-influenced architecture, it is the gateway to the Glaciers National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Booking.com offers a wide range of accommodation in El Calafate and surroundings, from 5-star hotels to cheap hostels.

The area was originally inhabited by the ‘Aonikenk’ people, while the modern settlement grew at the beginning of the 20th century as a refuge along the wool trade route, taking its name from the native blueberry bush known as ‘Calafate’. The town was founded by the Argentinean government in 1927 to promote the colonisation of the area, but its development started only after the creation of the National Park, in 1937.

The famous Perito Moreno Glacier is 80 km from the city. Mount Fitz Roy, the small town of El Chaltén, the romantic Onelli Bay, Lago del Desierto, and Roca Lake are some of the impressive landmarks that make up Argentina‘s 2nd-largest natural reservation. If you want to experience Patagonia’s languid vastness and tranquillity, try some of El Calafate’s rural accommodation or ‘estancias’.

    The personnel at the hotel was tremendously helpful.

    The personnel at the hotel was tremendously helpful. They helped me in a difficult situation where I had to buy airline tickets on an emergency basis. They helped organize an excursion, a trip to Perito Moreno and to organize transportation for my group of 13 to and from the airport. My room was beautiful; in fact, all of our rooms were wonderful. This is a quiet place.

    The only thing to really do is visit the glacier.

    The only thing to really do is visit the glacier. I thought we could do more to make an extra day worthwhile but the tours to visit the other parts of the park were super expensive. All tours in the area were way too pricey and you can’t really do anything else without a tour. The restaurants are good, but in general I think Chaltén has a lot more to do and see.

    El Calafate is the place to be for visiting the famous Perito Moreno Glacier. We did the Big Ice Adventure with Hiele Aventura and it was amazing. The town itself is fine but very touristy. The waffle café elba'r and the Patagonia Brewery were the best places we went to eat and drink. The Glaciarium was interesting, a very text-heavy museum, lots to read. We went to the Ice Bar there too, however I'd already been to the same concept in another city - if you've been to one, you've been to them all.
