A huge room with a mirador to the lake. The staff was extremely helpful. The lobby was furnitured for the guests who are waiting for the tourist-buses. The garden party for the guests was not only intimate but it makes the guest friend. The breakfast was so rich, like in a baronial castle. They have their own beer !

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’.

    I did 2 glacier tours, and one day took the bus to el chalten. The town itself is very charming, and one early morning when I was looking for a pharmacy, I had an escort of 4-8 local stray (and very friendly) dogs.

    We stayed two nights in El Calafate, visited Mereno Glacier national park for a day, another day, relaxed in the city. we really enjoyed walking along the Argentina river walkway, also visited nature conservancy, there are so many waterfowls in the lake (river), first time saw black neck swan, I wished I brought binocular with me to enjoy the bird watching. It supposes to have Grebe's and Flamingos, dozens of species. the first week of April, all the tall trees leave in the city are changing to golden yellow Fall color, with Spanish style houses, it is really a pretty and warm town. with delicious food and drinks. Really enjoyed

    Loved the All glaciers boat trip - well organized with plenty of time to enjoy the ride and the views. We went with SoloPatagonia and found it perfect for us. It takes all day, but we had time to drive to Perito Moreno Glacier and enjoy a shot visit before the closed. We found El Calafate has great restaurant options, ice cream shops and shopping. Another day, we drove to Chalten and completed one of the hikes looking at Fitz Roy mountain... loved the town of Chalten, the vibe, restaurants and nature. We would like to come back and stay there at least one night to complete more hikes.

    This is a great little town which has some eccentiricies - there's no zoning so you have car repair and other businesses in the middle of single family neighborhoods, and LOTS of dogs roaming around and (especially in the middle of the night) loudly. barking at each other whether singly or in packs. Weird. Outside that, lots of restaurants on the main drag, LOTS of small lodging opportunities scattered among residential housing - tourist-friently, relatively safe. English (at least fluent) is less common here, but manageable for English-native speakers willing to work at it.

    The view is the best part of this hotel! Every room has a view of the beautiful lake and it was def my favorite aspect. It is a simple hotel, everything is done well (cleaning is fine, the staff is nice, and there are amenities like massage offered) but nothing extremely unusual. Also, one of the best breakfast buffets I've had in Argentina, with many different sweet pastries, fruits, cereal, cheese, ham, etc

The room was very comfortable and clean. The breakfast is very good and optionally you can also eat a delicious dinner. It's some distance from the city centre, but actually we really enjoyed the calm neighborhood. Muchas gracias por todo!
