We spent 2 nights here and liked it so much that we came back a week later for another night. We were in the end unit both times (Room 4), which has a large window with a spectacular view of the town. Veronica took such good care of us. She made us a wonderful brown bag lunch for our glacier... More

This is a smaller residence/hotel, and the personal service from the proprietor was memorable. She was helpful with booking activities and friendly and made me love Argentina all the more. The room was sparkling clean and the views from any room in the facility took your breath away. The facility seems to be rather newly constructed and the bathroom is... More

we stayed here for 5 nights in total, though not consecutively. as a result, we got to stay in different rooms (Room 2, 3 and 4) each time we returned. Room 2 and 3 were twin rooms and Room 4 was a double corner room with better views (corner window). I would recommend Room 4. Good: - The hostess Veronica.... More

This was one of our favorite places that we stayed. The rooms are very charming and the heated floors were much appreciated, especially in the mornings with the cool, crisp El Calafate air. The bed was soft and comfortable. Because the Posada is located on a hill, it has an expansive view of the lake and mountains. We really like... More

Extremely friendly service, in a clean comfortable posada of only 4 rooms. Veronika helped us book our MiniTrekking tour to the Perito Moreno glacier (do this!), recommended an excellent paradilla, the Don Pichon, and even loaned us a corkscrew. Only a 5-minute walk from the main street in town. NNo hesitation in recommending. We had to try several booking websites... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in our 2.5week stay in Argentina and as a result, had a wonderful time in El Calafate. The owner, Veronique, is warm, thoughtful, and welcoming. She helped us get settled in to El Calafate by running us through the different options we have for the Perito Moreno Glacier tour. Her B&B is small and... More

Thoroughly enjoyed staying at Nothofagus - a good location with nice view over Lago Argentino, lovely cosy rooms (with heated floors), and an incredibly friendly owner. Will definitely recommend to others!

This was very good value for money in El Calafate. Victoria is a charming and very nice woman running the place, and it has lovely views to the lake. Also, there are two very nice places to eat right next door, so no need to wander in to the main town every night. Victoria can also book all the tours... More
