"Fabulous hostel, really warm mid winter - both in the room and common areas, fireplace, the dogs were an unexpected boon! Modern rooms with excellent floor heating - exactly what you want/need after a long day out in Patagonian winter! Good food in the restaurant (arepas!), hot dishes included in the free breakfast, amazing views, reasonably-priced laundry service. Short walk to the town centre. Really friendly and helpful staff. Couldn't be happier."

"Nice, and importantly for us, quiet hostel. While there was a shared kitchen and bathroom this was not a young party hostel. It was very quiet and very clean. Nothing fancy, but no complaints from us. It's just a few blocks from the main street for restaurants and shops. And we made use of the kitchen for breakfast, lunch and one dinner. "

"Location was ok. Not too far from the center. Should be paved、dirt is a messy situation rain or shine. The bathrooms were hideous、dark、and built poorly. Rooms were at the minimum: small and white. Beds were alright 、less comfortable than other hostels of same or lower price. Didnt get a chance to eat breakfast because left early、but tge set up looked really nice. Staff's English isn't good enough to run a hostel."

"We stayed at Hotel La Loma on the way to and from both El Chalten and Torres Del Paine. It was in a perfect location, just a couple of hundred metres from the bus station and on the same level, so no need to carry bags up and down the stairs from the main road. It had a lovely swimming pool and large gardens to relax in. The staff were great too. Would definitely stay there again."

Hospedaje Norte Calafate - Hostel
1.0 star property
4.6 out of 10, (8)
"Stray dogs from the street came in and defaecated on the carpet upstairs, outside our bedroom door.
