Not to be missed. Absolutely worth the incredible distance that you have to travel (at least from outside of South America). Really best if you enjoying hiking and/or riding. We had an incredible stay here, and simply cannot compliment the staff enough. They were excellent. Actually also stayed here right after it opened in 1995, and the beauty hasn't changed,... more

We finished our 25 day South American adventure with 4 nights in Explora Patagonia being suggested by our travel advisor as the finishing point of our journey before we flew back to Australia. We were a bit hesitant given we had to fly such a distance but we said what the [--] "lets just do it"! To our travel advisors... more

Briefly Best thing about hotel and what you are paying for is the location in the park and the view which is awesome weather permiting. Staff, food, guides all good. Spa ok, but could maintain outdoor whirlpools better. A coupe of days, they had an unpleasant odor. Glacier Grey hike/boat ride great. Towers hike more of challenge than enjoyable unless... more

Explora Salto Chico is a very special place. Yes, it's quite a hike to get there, but it's totally worth it. Incredible hiking, spectacular landscape...amazing, amazing. It feels like camp for adults, but in a good way. If you enjoy socializing while you're on vacation, then it will be a fun experience for you to meet interesting people from all... more

An astronomer will tell you that the light pollution free night skies over this place are ideal for stargazing. They may well be right, but if... more

My husband, 4-year-old and I had a wonderful time at Hotel Salto Chico in Patagonia. Yes, it was hard to get to. No, it does not have the ammenities found at the Four Seasons Hotel in NYC. But it was an experience I will never forget and hope my daughter will always remember. Most importantly, if you think you can't... more

Spectacular sunrises, towering peaks, wind whipped waters, fantastic clouds, brilliant rainbows…and that was just the view from our room (a spacious Suite Exploradores with two large windows framing the view...the upgrade is worth the cost)! This is a lodge for those who enjoy hiking and horseback riding. There are few activities for more sedentary travelers. During our 10 day stay... more

Fabulous place - spectacular location, quintessential service, great excursions with wonderful guides and drivers, excellent food and Chilean wines, open bar, heated indoor pool, amazing views of the Paine Massif from every window.
