Tristan Belgium

The best part of the place is the staff!! They are all amazing, super knowledgeable and ready to help. We had a room with a private bathroom, that was just perfect for sleeping. The hostel has a really nice view of Lago Argentino. Breakfast was simple but for us it was enough. They have great empanadas and offer lunch bags for your expeditions.

Lucila United States of America

My friend has an accident and all the staff, specially Vero were attending her and helped us to found solutions because it changes the original itinerary. The breakfast was complete, everything clean, the common spaces are very comfortable and the property is good located

Camila Colombia

It is a wonderful hostel and I would definitely recommend and visit again. Rooms were clean, breakfasts were great, the staff awesome and the view spectacular! You can rent bikes there, as well as towels. Chacho is the “parrillero” in charge and cooks dinner there everyday, thanks to him ive tried the most amazing cordero patagonico and funny thing is that dont even like cordero. You can arrange everything there, they will advise you the best information and tour to do.
