10 Hostels hotel in El Calafate: Best hotel deals for 2023
Building on its must-visit location, the once-tiny El Calafate has grown quickly to cater to and profit from the visitors to nearby Los Glaciares National Park. Many visit to see such natural wonders as Perito Moreno Glacier, a massive glacier that’s actually composed of many other pieces of shifting ice. Yet travelers will find that El Calafate is much more than merely a gateway to the Patagonian wild—it’s a fun town offering all sorts of outdoor adventures.

Amazing hostel - a must for travellers in El Calafate!
Reviewed By Amy DWe stayed at this hostel for 3 nights while in El Calafate and we didn’t want to leave, it was easily one of the best hostels we stayed in while travelling around South America. The place has such a lovely vibe whether you are travelling solo or as a group. Great common area to socialise in, lots of young people, other travellers and staff are super friendly. The panoramic views from the common area and garden are amazing especially when the weather is nice. The BBQ was also so delicious (the best lamb we tried in Patagonia) and felt like we were in a top rated restaurant rather than a hostel! Cannot recommend this place highly enough - thank you America del Sur for an a

A view that leaves you frozen
Reviewed By F5191RAcarlagThe best thing about El Calafate is that you can do all kinds of activities, from bike rides along the coast, relaxing in a hotel that has a spa overlooking the lake, long walks that do not need a guide through the hills, or the best excursion and a must-see in Los Glaciares Park, where you can see the Glacier in its maximum splendor! Truly a wonder of nature!

Perfect place to stay for trip to Glacier
Reviewed By Jasmine_NicholsonA very comfortable, clean and homely place to stay. Our trip to the Glacier was amazing and this accommodation was the icing on top. The owner,Conrrado and his wife make all the difference , providing home cooked pastries and savouries for breakfast and help with booking trips and making everything so easy. Everyone is made to feel very welcome We used the hotel bikes and went around the Lake and stopped for lunch in a lovely bar

useless staff, okay hostel
Reviewed By Christine FI'd give them zero points, if it would be possible... Was there with my bf in late March; we had no reservation. Already when we arrived there, we couldn't really figure out, whether the people on the terraces were guests, staff or friends of staff (later on we knew: staff and friends) Even though we were obviously passing these smokers next to the front door to go inside to reception, none of the staff said hi. We walked outside a couple of minutes later and asked the people, if someone knew, where we could find staff. "Oh, I am the receptionist" (one of the people who we were passing to get in). This was still okay, the main problem followed later on: We were brought to our room and assinged beds. When we came back to the room later that day, my stuff was gone - other guests were assigned the exact same bed (with my stuff on). Alright, this can happen, new receptionist assigned me to a new bed. Came back again about three hours afterwards, guess what: My things were gone again and the bed I was assigned to was given to someone else, again. Had a a bed for a night, went on a trip and came back in the later afternoon - my stuff was gone again!! Worst thing about staff: They didn't seem to care about it and not a single sorry came from them. The next morning I wanted to wash some clothes by hand, and asked at reception for a bucket and wether it's alright, if I washed it in that bucket in the showerroom. "yeah, yeah, that's fine". Ten minutes later a very angry housekeeping lady told me I wasn't allowed to do this. So yeah, if the staff of Nakel Yenu would get organised and maybe discuss whatguests are allowed to and what not, future travellers might be happy about it. The hostel itself is alright: I liked how the kitchen was in a separate building, no food odours in the bedrooms. The water pressure was quite little in the female showers. At the guys' it was apparently better. Hostel is a tad out of the city centre, but definitely walkable and about halfway between the centre and the bus station.

the stela house in Patagonia, stands out in its colors with a beautiful garden, next to a work team awaits its guests to make them feel at home
Pick somewhere else
Reviewed By Aneeka AThis hotel is run down and over priced for what it is. I changed hotels when I was in El Calafate and I wish I'd stayed in the other place the whole time (the other place was nicer and cheaper). The upsides are the rooms are super toasty, my room was in a sweet garden, which was nice to sit in after a long day and breakfast was good. The Hospitality was also good. Also there is a little market just beside it. Fyi the private rooms are on the other side of the building where reception is.

Some pluses and some minuses
Reviewed By Giel1985Stayed for 3 nights in a room with private bathroom and there’s both some pluses and minuses we experienced. Our room was very spacious and clean, and the location of the hostel is excellent (just outside the busy part of town). The place was also nice and quiet in the evenings and nights. Both the bed and the shower weren’t too comfy though, but okayish for a few nights. Quite a big disadvantage is that you can only pay in cash. ATMs only allow you to draw small amounts of cash against high costs, which means that there’s a lot of “extra” costs involved.

Great place to stay near bus station
Reviewed By davidbr99Booked this place primarily as it was near the bus station and I had an early morning bus to El Chalten. That said the main centre of town was only 10/15 mins walk down the road. Staff were great, spoke great English and gave really good recommendations for food and drinks. Definitely recommended
