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.

The trip to the Glacier was memorable, the people friendly and helpful. Restaurants were excellent and you could walk anywhere in town easily from any hotel in the central area. We had a lot of fun here! Highly recommend the Patagonia Queen Boutique Hotel. Rafael will take great care of you!

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.

I did not like this hotel.
I did not like this hotel. It was miserable and did not live up to its advertising in booking at all. No good cuisine , no hot tub as advertised This is not a 5@4 star whitely and you are advertising it incorrectly
Booked a whole dorm as private room for me and husband. A little strange sleeping in bunk beds but there's a great vibe in the communal areas, the rooms are very warm, the view is amazing and everything is extremely clean. Breakfast was varied and good value for money. Ate dinner at the hostel one night and although the price was approaching restaurant level (albeit with a free wine) the grill was some of the best we've had in Argentina.
Excellent breakfast and supper dinner with delicious Pentagonia lamb.
Front desk Teo is efficient, professional and very attentive . He welcomed us very warmly and explained everything so clearly. He helped to book our day tours plus transport. He found a room for us to stay the next day so we don’t have to move to another hotel on our last day in El Calafate. Thank you, Teo. You are a 5 star service model!!
Everything was perfect! The family atmosphere at the hotel made our stay unforgettable! The panoramic view of El Calafate and Lago Argentino is totally breathtaking! 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!
It is a spacious apartment, very cleanly maintained. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was equipped with utensils, though we did not get a chance to use it.
Perched on an elevated land, this property has a great view of Lago Argentina and the lights of the town around it from the window of the bedroom at night, it was simply amazing.
Very nice small bed and breakfast type of accommodation in a safe residential neighborhood about .5miles from downtown. The owners are great, breakfast delicious and price is very reasonable. Like everything in Argentina, dollars are greatly appreciated and discount the rate further. Would definitely stay again.
The staff was extremely helpful and aided us in tour tips and other things. Laundry service was provided for a fee.
The room was relative large, and clean and fresh. It had a great view over El Calafate.
Other reviews have mentioned that it is far from the city center, but it really is not.
Couldn't understand the reviews giving this hotel super low scores. Our stay was great. Considering the value, the location, included breakfast, we couldn't fault it. Some of the equipment felt like they could do with an update but that's quite trivial. Even the set dinner was good value.
The hotel itself is beautiful. The rooms are a bit dated though. The restaurant exceeded our expectations - we had a great meal there night one. The breakfast buffet was probably the best we had on our trip. It's in a great location only a 15 min walk from the main street.
I’ve stayed in a lot of hostels and hotels in Argentina and the ease, friendliness and helpfulness of the staff really stood out. It seemed like they all really enjoy their jobs and went out of their way to book tours, taxis, lunch. It was great value for money.
Great stay in El Calafate. The hotel grounds were beautiful, the owners extremely accommodating, and in the perfect location to downtown. I recommend this hotel to those looking for a great hotel central to Main Street. We would absolutely stay here again!
The hotel is very comfortable. No luxury, but covered all the needs we had.
People from staff were super nice and they always asked us if everything was ok :)
The beds were amazing and the apple pie from breakfast from another world :D
this is the 43rd hotel. I’ve stayed at using Booking.com in the last year and it’s probably the best hotel for the price I’ve been in. Everything about it is good: clean comfortable great staff fabulous breakfast…..
The room ! Ultra clean, very spacious, very well decorated, beautiful view.
I don't understand the bad comments. It was one of the best places during our 3 weeks stay in Argentina.
Hosts are very nice and gentle.
Pretty hotel a little bit outside of El Calafate (car or taxi required) with lovely views over the lake. Staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating. Room was very comfortable. Breakfast was very good.
Our cabin was so cute! Best bang for your buck in expensive El Calafate. Location is central.
Ana the hostess (Ana) was amazing and helped us out a ton with laundry, taxi and everything else.
This place is absolutely perfect. It is clean, spacious and bright. We loved the little walk to the city centre, and the host was extremely helpful. One of the best stays we had in Argentina!
