The hotel is new and clean. Beds are comfortable with extra pillows. Wifi is strong. Location is fantastic, close to main road downtown with many restaurants and shops. The front desk is very friendly and helpful. Specially want to mention Luciana who had helped us in booking round trip to glaciers and transfer to airport. Only may be breakfast can have better variety like fried eggs.
Very welcoming front desk guy, enthusiastically guiding us to buy tickets for Glacier Park online (in Spanish it is a bit difficult indeed), saving us the queue time when driving into the park.
Despite the power outage on the second night of the stay, it was quickly restored in about half an hour. Enjoying the lake green Argentine lake flowing down from the glacier national park and the sky in circles of strong winds in front of the window, it seems to be back to the Antarctic eight years ago...
The Design Suite Hotel is exactly what it is called. It is a very design and very beautiful hotel. It should be the best view hotel in Calafate to see the Lake of Argentina. Each room has a whole window overlooking the lake. While slowly admiring the beautiful lake view, snow peaks, blue sky and white clouds. The restaurant is very beautiful, the breakfast is rich, the taste is good, the service is very warm, and the English is very good. It is very intimate that you can order a lunch set on the glacier hike, and there are oversized sandwiches, apples, water, chocolate pie, and energy bars, which are very worthwhile. Walk along the lake to the town center in about half an hour, and also pass through the wetland park. There are buses to and from the airport to pick up and drop off, following the bus is equivalent to a day trip to the town! All in all, very good value for money.
The breakfast is particularly good, with rich and complete varieties, and rich in variety, which is the ceiling of breakfast in hotels of the same level.
Overall, the experience is still very good, only
1. There is a road from the town, which belongs to the uphill section. It will be a little hard to walk back to the hotel.
2. The facilities are a bit old, you can see the mottled traces, including the bathtub is damaged, the wood furniture is mottled, if it can be repaired, the experience will be better
Advantages
1. The location is relatively high, the view from the hall is great
2. Staff is super friendly
Breakfast is not many options, but can be full
The house is on the top of the mountain. It takes a little walk to get to the town, but it is really comfortable. The decoration of the hotel is quite good, but the sound insulation effect is average. If you are close to the roadside, you often hear the harsh sound of motorcycles. The breakfast is relatively simple, but the service staff Attitude and stupidity.
The room was extremely small and the bed was so small that two people could hardly turn around. It was definitely not a four-star hotel, but three stars at most. The breakfast was not good - the bread should be frozen.
Very Good

AAnonymous UserIt has an amazing lake view, but a bit further from the center which makes it a bit hard to walk back and forth to eat etc but if you don’t mind that then it’s perfect.
Lucia at the front desk is incredibly helpful and knows everything you need about the places you want to visit.
It’s clean and comfy.
Only there is no hairdryer and also it can be a bit noisy if you face the road from passing motorcycles at night, but that’s only an issue for light sleepers like me, while my friend was not affected at all.
Overall worth the stay and a good spot to use as your base.
CChloeHotel is very central and we walked around town everywhere. Staff were super friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend booking a massage it was delightful. Got rid of my knots and would have gotten another massage but we didnt book in advance so we werent able to. Spa area was unexpected little gem. Jacuzzi and a sauna. The only down side to the hotel was the water pressure wasn't great. Makes a lot of strange noises as well. But this doesn't take away from the rest of the positives from the hotel.
AAmayaUbicado a poca distancia del centro, 5 minutos andando. Las camas muy comodas, habitación con baño privado con ducha muy grande, instalaciones limpias.
Amplio salon comedor muy bonito con unas vistas muy lindas para ver la puesta de sol.
Destacar la amabilidad de el personal y predisposición para ayudar, aconsejar en todo, les doy un 10. Muy contenta con las estancia, sin duda repetiría.
SSuiyixingThe hotel is a log cabin with plenty of hot water. When it is heated, the floor is heated and you need to manually adjust the control switch next to the sink. The breakfast is good and mate tea is also provided. The best thing is that the hotel can report various travel routes by itself, which is very convenient.

VVeronikaBooked one night, planned to stay for three extra, but left with pleasure. Very and very noisy . In the building, the restaurant 24/7 is all open , a bunch of different people, no silence in the hostel . The bathroom, toilet and shower are offered for guests of the restaurant on the first floor . The second floor is already for those in the hostel . But the first floor also hosted and you still enjoy it . The restroom stand between the tables where people eat in the cafe. The common area is very noisy , the whole noise of the cafe is heard . I have moved to a quieter place with pleasure .
Of the pluses there is a supermarket next to the hostel , the hostel is located on the main street , but the el chalten itself is not big because where living in it is not important at all .
And the staff is some kind of very unfriendly . The atmosphere I'm so happy to leave . The women's toilet on the first floor didn't work light .
The bed was filled out of the pluses , but the beds are very strongly vibrant

JJayyy3126Great place. Just that it’s really out of town and you have to get a taxi to get to town or walk like 30 mins which is not so bad but when it’s cold it’s another issue. But it’s right next to Lake Argentino with great views. Great staff very helpful and a simple breakfast every morning. Great place overall.
