Great place to stay in El Calafate

Hotel Amigo del Mundo was just what I needed in El Calafate. Close to downtown and to the bus - walking distance from everything. Economical, clean, comfortable, quiet. The breakfast was nice and complete. I would definitely stay there again.

Simple yet effective for short trip

Simple yet effective place to sleep for a night or two. The bed is decent the pillows are sleepable but could be better. Surprised how nice the free breakfast was. Overall a good deal for the price

Stayed here twice - one stay was in an older room and one was in a newer updated room. This hotel was away from the central area of town which I liked because it is more quiet and less chaotic than town center. Takes about ten minutes to walk downtown. Breakfast provided every morning and had a good selection of items to choose from. The bathroom in the older room was small and could use some improvements but the bathroom in the newer room was quite nice. This place is a no frills but comfortable option for the price point in my opinion. All of the staff were very nice as well.

Excellent Staff

The staff was excellent. Our flight was delayed by 16 hours and the staff helped us arrange a taxi with an English speaking driver/ guide to Perito Moreno. So we didn’t loose. During my 2 nd stay , they allowed a late checkout by 2 hrs. The bathroom plumbing could be improved. Decent breakfast. Stayed twice and will stay again. The bus station is less than 10 minutes walk.
