The room was spotless, hotel staff very friendly. There was a shuttle that we didn't use but was a very good option. The breakfast was excellent, better than all the other hotel breakfasts we had on this trip. We loved the view of the lake from our room.

We stayed for 3 nights in the "FitzRoy" room with a king size bed, two comfy sofas, in room safe, large bathroom - the best part was the SUPERB view of Lake Argentino. To sit by the window and look out at the end of the day, and in the early morning was so relaxing and beautiful. The staff were very professional and friendly. We ate two dinners at the restaurant onsite and they were both very tasty (the lentil stew was such a comfort food). NOTE: when you stay on the upper floor, their are some stairs at the front (or you have to enter from the back entrance where there are no stairs). The location is on a STEEP HILL, so walking downhill into the city center is no problem, but coming back we used UBER or the hotel shuttle (there is a Fee) which only runs in the evenings (you have to call the hotel on WhatsApp to arrange the shuttle - this process should be made more efficient with set schedules times so that you can plan your day and get back to the hotel.

Beautiful hotel & lake view room overlooking the lovely town of Calafate. A great location for day trips to sights.!We were happy the double was actually a king bed.The front desk staff, Dario & Gabriella, we very helpful. The cleaning staff friendly.The breakfast was varied and a hot, made to order egg dish was available. Too many sweet baked goods for our tastes. Would have enjoyed better bread. There was a private car shuttle offered 7 m - 11 pm but not always available. The walk to town is 10 min but if you have joint problems or limitations in walking it is a difficult uphill hike & often VERY windy.

Excellent view from the room and common/ breakfast area of the lake and mountains beyond. Comfortable, cosy room with great bathroom facilities. Staff extremely helpful with advice on local restaurants, weather and booking trips for us. Easy walk to and from town, but there is a shuttle car service in the evening for when the weather makes walking less appealing!
