The hotel was nice, with the view of the lake & sunsets. Room was ok, comfortable but not very big. The shuttle bus is prompt also you can walk to the city in 30 minutes. However my excellent rating based on the evening meals. My compliments to the chef! Heston Blumenthal of The Fat Duck where I dine few month... More

The hotel has a lovely view of the lakes but the food is average (and therefore overpriced). You must book ahead to get a good table, or be in a huge tour group. Was the first place I had to send my lomo back to the kitchen (despite specific instructions). Coffee was among the worst I've had in Argentina and... More

We were booked into this hotel with another couple by Kensington Tours. The view from our rooms over the lake and with the sunsets was just outstanding. It is outside of town but the shuttle is very prompt and convenient. Just sign up for the time when you want to depart the hotel. Rooms were large, comfortable and ours was... More

We selected this hotel for a short stay to see the Poreto Moreno Glacier. This is a beautiful property on the hillside overlooking the lake. Rooms are large and have lots of light and great views. The property is away from town, but there is a shuttle that will take you there, otherwise it is a quite a walk. The... More

Beware, fellow travelers, this hotel (or hotel chain) is more concerned about making money at all cost than providing a good service to its customers. We had a roll-over total-loss car accident three nights before we had booked with them, with the ensuing impossibility of reaching El Calafate as planned. Though I called them the day after the accident (two... More

I contacted the hotel twice by e-mail asking if they could arrange an airport transfer or give information on how to transfer. I got no answer. I asked Expedia to help (booke through them) and they rang the hotel. I got the message back that they would get me a taxi when I had checked in - just go to... More

We spent three nights at the Alto Calafate Hotel. Our last day we left the room at 7:30 AM for our excursion. When we returned at 4:45 PM (16:45) out room was being cleaned. This was the primary room cleaning, because we never had turndown service. The hotel is about a 15 minute ride from downtown. The hotel runs a... More

The hotel stands over the small town of Calafate with wonderful views. The staff were great and friendly. The rooms were nice and clean and well decorated. We had one overlooking the bay stunning views. The breakfast was plentiful and nice, the evening meal was enjoyable.

My boyfriend and I have just spent a few days in Alto Calafate Hotel (including New Year's Eve), and it has just exceeded our expectations. This hotel is located on a hill three kilometers away from El Calafate, but the hotel provides transfer to and from the town free of charge. Everywhere from the hotel, the lobby, the restaurant, the... More

Our room was definitly not what I expected from the entrance hall, which was quite nice. Our room, facing east, was not convincing at all. Suffocating warm, although all heaters were off, and I am really not someone suffering from heat waves. You can only open one third of the window surface, but still, you won't be able to stick...
