"Pretty nice hostel, pretty basic but standard breakfast better than other hostels I stayed at in the area. A little expensive for a hostel but again that’s just the price you pay in the southern regions. Nice facility and fast wifi, kitchen was fairly large and lots of space to accommodate guests"

"Staff were very helpful and friendly. Can book the bus to el chalten or Perito Morino through them. Only real negative was having one bathroom for a largeish dorm, and the shower only sort of worked (would expect that to be standard for the area though) Breakfast is decent, self serve with coffee, toast, eggs pancakes.

"Nice, and importantly for us, quiet hostel. While there was a shared kitchen and bathroom this was not a young party hostel. It was very quiet and very clean. Nothing fancy, but no complaints from us. It's just a few blocks from the main street for restaurants and shops. And we made use of the kitchen for breakfast, lunch and one dinner. "

Hostel de las Manos
2.0 star property
6.4 out of 10, (6)
"Location was ok. Not too far from the center. Should be paved、dirt is a messy situation rain or shine. The bathrooms were hideous、dark、and built poorly. Rooms were at the minimum: small and white. Beds were alright 、less comfortable than other hostels of same or lower price. Didnt get a chance to eat breakfast because left early、but tge set up looked really nice. Staff's English isn't good enough to run a hostel."

1.0 star property
7.0 out of 10, Good, (21)
"We stayed at Hotel La Loma on the way to and from both El Chalten and Torres Del Paine. It was in a perfect location, just a couple of hundred metres from the bus station and on the same level, so no need to carry bags up and down the stairs from the main road. It had a lovely swimming pool and large gardens to relax in. The staff were great too. Would definitely stay there again."

Hospedaje Norte Calafate - Hostel
1.0 star property

"Stray dogs from the street came in and defaecated on the carpet upstairs, outside our bedroom door. The owner removed the mess but the carpet was stained and no attempt was made to clean it using disinfectant. The breakfast provided was poor with no ham, cheese or cereals so we had to bring our own although there were no kitchen facilities available. The bedroom was very small with insufficient space between beds, made worse by the need to move one bed to access the electrical socket. A...

"I booked this hotel to visit the Perito Moreno Glacier. OMG, what an experience! When I got there it was super charming. I felt like I just walked into a Christmas card. The cabin resembles that of the ones at a ski resort. Our cabin was spotless, spacious yet cozy at the same time. The town is just down the block along with many food options. It’s owned and managed by a lovely couple that were very hands on to our needs. They were very knowledgeable and informative about not only El...
