Would recommend!

I would recommend Destino to anyone going to El Calafate. The location relative to the bus station is convenient, and it's very clean and modern. Also, the breakfast was quite good for a Continental.

Distance from town

The hotel and staff were very good but the hotel is isolated and a 15 minute walk to town for restaurants.

The hotel building looks brand new and so is everything inside which makes the hotel extremely convenient. It's a 3 minute walk from the bus stop which is why we chose it, but it's about 20 minutes from the main street downtown. There are a couple of restaurants close by but we mostly took a taxi downtown for meals, costs about 3 USD each way. There is no air conditioning and it can get warm inside the room on a sunny day even if it's cool outside. Only part of the window opens so it wasn't easy to cool the room down. They should have considered a ceiling fan. The rooms are impeccably clean. The mattress was average in terms of comfort. The front desk staff was extremely helpful. They call taxis for you and even exchange your dollars for you. The breakfast was great with made to order eggs and it's available as early as 630am. Overall a great stay.
