The front desk was very helpful with advice about places to eat.

Joseph United States of America

Very good location, close to the main street. Good free wifi.

Gustavo Brazil

The breakfast was fine, pretty standard stuff - cereal, toast, ham and cheese, sweet pastry, coffee, tea, etc. but nothing cooked or hot. The pool was great to jump into after a hike! The room was fine, but definitely a little loud on the ground floor with folks walking above. The bunk bed is in the same room as the kitchen, so it was a little bright for the kids to sleep and meant no one was staying up for an extra glass of wine (which was fine, we hiked hard!) Very close to two main trailheads, and lots of shops/restaurants, so very well located!!

Keeley United States of America

The swimming pool, a great surprise after a day of hiking.

Wynand South Africa

Shahar Israel

The hotel offers a very large and comfortable pool, the breakfast is quite good, but has no fruit, and the rooms are excellent.

Hernan Argentina

The breakfast was probably the best in our entire trip (pretty diverse with different types of sweets, cheese and ham), the swimming pool was warm and perfect after a day of trekking and the room was big and comfortable. Very close to restaurants and the FitzRoy trek.

Andrei Romania

Good location. Wifi was OK. Nice pool if you need it.

Deborah Netherlands

The staff was very friendly, especial’y at the reception. The rooms are big and confortable.

Marie-claire Switzerland
