“Excellent Place to Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2011

Every morning we sat in the courtyard and enjoyed the beauty of the garden, basked in the sun and absorbed the tranquility of location. We found the hosteria to exceed our expectations. On the plus side the location is perfect being one block from the center of town; individuals at the front dest spoke English and were very helpful in booking trips, etc.; room was spotlessly clean; plenty of hot water; sufficient radiator heat; great vegetarian restaurant, good breakfast; decor in restaurant was excellent; room was sufficient size; and the lack of a TV in the room allowed us to communicate and read rather than watch the tube. Also our aerolineas Argentina flight from Ushuaia El Calafate was cancelled so we lost a night in el Calafate. We called the Kau Kaleshen and they cancelled that night at no cost to us. A great plus for them. The only negative was the lack of a refrigerator and hot pot with coffee/tea in the room.

“Good choice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 January 2011

We spent there only one night but were happy of the choice. The hotel is nicely decorated and the rooms opening on the garden are quiet. Our room was a bit small but still acceptable. The staff was helpful and kind. We tried as well their vegetarian cafe/restaurant (a challenge for argentina), and liked the food, tin spite of no much fantasy in the recipes..
They do not accept credit cards as most places we visited in the region.

“People (Mariano & Eduardo) at Kau Kaleshen couldn´t be more helpful”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 January 2011

My wife and I left El Calafate completely amazed with the level of helpfulness of people at Kau Kaleshen, specially Mariano and Eduardo. We not even had to ask any help...they were already doing the whole "concierge" work without charging any single penny. The hosteria is carefully taken care and we had a very pleasant stay in El Calafate. We highly recommend Hosteria Kau Kaleshen for those who do not want to spend a lot of money, are looking for a clean and pleasant place as well as a good/cost benefit deal.
