The highs: Way above average food at the hotel restaurant! Chef is obviously talented, wish I remembered her name! and the service was fantastic! Shout-out to Gisela who was fantastic…Bar tender was friendly but disappeared every now and then (with 5 customers total in the bar area) which annoyingly broke the flow of the evening after a perfect dinner, so that sucked. Room was ok, bathroom sucked needs updating (skinny step-in tub shower!?) Location was a bit too far from the main drag but it’s a nice hotel overall with a small sauna and small heated pool (but no shampoo, conditioner etc in the shower). Some front desk staff great some boarder line rude (Bruno) wouldn't/couldn't help us earn Wyndham points, even after we explained, we could not access their site for the direct booking. And would not grant a noon check out ( 1 hour) even after spending almost $400 on food and beverages over 2 days, really!... could be managed better. Restaurant saved the stay, so we could ignore the deficiencies and loved our stay overall.

Very hot in rooms, opened window which helped but not a lot. Asked for a fan and never received one. Breakfast wasn’t very good so we went out to eat the subsequent days. Parking lot is small and gravel. On the plus side staff were friendly, lobby area was nice and even though the room was fairly small and hot it was clean and in good condition. Easy to walk into downtown area.

Property is about a 15min walk from the main street in El Calafate up and down a hill. My initial room was terrible it smelled weird and all you coild hear was the sound of wind and the elevator. The front desk staff were super nice and accomadating and changed my room. The second room was much better. No funky smell and no sound of wind. Overall, the room was comfortable. Breakfast had a large selection of food. The staff were super friendly and helpful in setting up tours and calling taxis.

Feels like Bedrock (Flintstones)

What a disappointment! This hotel was very expensive by any standard. Dated room with no A/C and no amenities. Mattress from the 1990's. Way to hot and impossible to sleep during the summer. Old furniture and tinny TV, huge bathroom with a lot of wasted space. Cold breakfast buffet with very limited options. The staff is very friendly, so at least you have that.

The property looked beautiful on the pictures but did not live up to the expectations. On the positive side - the hotel was very clean and the front desk staff were friendly and very helpful. Now the negatives: the pillows were lumpy, the room on the third floor was extremely hot with no air coming in even with windows open, the upgraded “Mountain View” room had mostly a view of the streets around the hotel (our second room with a “standard” view had a better view), the coffee at breakfast was horrible, and the $25 lunch boxes we ordered from the hotel were inedible. For the price we paid, we expected more from the hotel.
