The only letdown hotel of the trip. It was nice enough, though far from the town center but we had a room on the ground floor and it was noisy. The parking lot was right outside our windows but more noisy was that we could hear everything in the dining room--from late night diners to early buffet-breakfast eaters. The place was nice, friendly, and clean, though.

The distance to town is a bit of a drawback. Even though we had a car it is hard to park in Pucon so it was a hassle to drive into town.

Their heated pool is nice. Wi-fi was free but accessible only in the lounge area.

We enjoyed staying just outside the city center in this quiet and peaceful chalet-style hotel. They offer a reasonably priced prix fixe menu each night, which we sampled and enjoyed as well.

We only stayed one night at the Hotel Malalhue, but it was a very pleasant stay. The staff was very accomodating and friendly. We had to leave early in the morning for the volcano climb, and they had a full breakfast spread ready for us a couple hour before the normal time for their breakfast serving. They also allowed us to store our luggage with them for the entire day.

The room was very big and comfortable, and nicely decorated. The restaurant at the hotel was convenient and very reasonably priced for hotel dining. We ate there after a full day of exploring the town, and enjoying the hot springs. The hotel is a bit of a walk from the downtown area, but in a good location.

We stayed at this hotel as a part of a tour group through Patagonia so I can't comment on the cost. The hotel was very good though. The hotel staff was very helpful and spoke some English. The lobby had 3 computers for internet use. The room was very nice and comfortable and had HBO in English as well. The food was good, not unbelieveable, but good. The breakfast had quite a good variety and was more than just a typical continental breakfast of bread, cereal, and cold cuts. The location is on the outside of town so it is about a 15-20 minute walk into the main part of town (or an inexpensive cab ride). Overall, I was very pleased with the hotel and would stay here again.
