I LOVED this little bungalow! Cute kitchen with everything needed to stay in and cook, comfy bed, nice size bathroom. I super loved that the hostess asked me to please check in with her as I left to hike and when I returned so she knew I was safe. As a solo traveler, that meant a whole lot to me and my family back home!

We stayed in the family bungalow and it was great! The bungalow had everything you would need for a comfortable stay and the breakfast delivered each day was perfect. The location is super close to trails and restaurants and the hotel staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. I’d recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in El Chalten.

We stayed in a cabin and it was nice. We had some bugs and there were some issues with the breakfast, the milk was spoiled and there was a hair in the yogurt. But the staff was excellent and very helpful.

Great stay, close to trailhead. Receptionists were very helpful and gave us a lot of good information. The bed is a bit soft but the hotel is clean, and staff is super nice. Breakfast is great.

The cabin was full of little bugs. They hot water was out when we wanted to shower at night, and the heater had to be reset. and while we booked our room with breakfast included, we couldn't go to the buffet. They had stuff in our room that we had to basically prepare ourselves, had to get eggs and cook it ourselves and then wash the dishes. Not really what we expected. Over all, there are better options in the area for the price.

Staff was awesome (helpful, friendly and very accommodating to any needs); we had a late departure, so they secured our luggage and had a nice detached space that was nice to have access to after our check out. Very convenient location in the middle of town one street off the main road.

Disappointed in El Chalten

I had two separate reservations here and used all the characters in my first review. I had a few things to add- The staff at the desk were very good. Max in particular took time to explain everything we needed to know about hikes, restaurants, etc. In my first review I noted that at this price I expected to be comfortable. The mattress in our room was old or poor quality, and I had the worst 4 nights sleep in our entire first month in Argentina. Under the front door, you could see daylight, so it was like a bug highway. As I noted in my other review, due to the awkward and inefficient layout of the room, my husband’s suitcase had to stay on the floor at the front door. Every day I was looking at the bugs trying to be sure none were bedbugs. The room was really warm and stuffy, and even on a day with horrible winds, we had to keep the windows opened a little to have some air circulation. When the wind is bad in El Chalten- it is without mercy. Another reason for a terrible night sleep. The bungalows were built into the side of another building, and we heard every footstep in the unit above/adjacent to us. I left really surprised that this place was rated as highly as it was- in many dozens of bookings I’ve made on Hotels.com, there are very few where expectations based on other reviews and reality were so different.

A disappointing stay

We stayed here four nights total. It was not horrible but definitely not a place I would stay again for the price. When we are paying over $200USD per night I hope to be comfortable. First issue, it is advertised as breakfast included and we read prior reviews that said how the breakfast was so good, they give you eggs, etc. Well, in our room there was a tiny kitchenette and they informed us on checkin that our breakfast was provided in the room. They provided very low quality food, no protein. Dry bread. The same sweet pasty every day. Some typical yogurt here very thin and full of sugar. So we had to go to the store to buy eggs and better food, and prepare it every day and then hand wash our dishes too. This took an extra 30 minutes of each morning where we thought we paid for a hotel that would provide a typical breakfast service. Nothing in our reservation indicated we were somehow not allowed to have the same breakfast as the prior good reviews implied. Second, the entry area to the bungalows is not finished with a proper walkway. It is a mud path where you have to step over wooden pallets carrying heavy bags. Third, while the room was large, the storage and layout was horrible where there was no room for a second suitcase except right at the front door. They have the little kitchen table attached to the wall, if it could be moved then there would be a way to make this more comfortable. There was no where in the large bathroom to store toiletry bags.
