This is a nice, clean, comfortable little hotel outside of town. It has its own small restaurant which is only open in the evening but makes a great gin & tonic and decent food. The breakfast is a step above many that I have had on this trip With hot scrambled eggs being a welcome plus. The rooms are normal size and beds comfortable. Recommend second floor so you can open the windows to let in fresh air. Wonderful sitting room at the top of the building! Staff was very helpful and friendly and attentive.

It is a very nice hosteria, spacious room, very clean and wonderful staff. They are friendly and always ready for help. If anything on the week side, it is a location which is kind of far away from the central town, but the staff can help you order taxi.

Honeymoon Hosteria

We stayed here for our honeymoon after traveling for two weeks prior. I had read some bad reviews but was so pleasantly surprised at what a nice place this was! Yes it’s far from town, but we had a car so that didn’t matter. Food at the restaurant rant was good! we didn’t eat there much but it was convenient and the empanadas were YUMMY. Our room was comfortable and clean, we had a view of the lake and the most hilarious birds outside our window that sounded like they were laughing at us. The breakfast was easily one of the best we had. They had many options! We got massages from the incredible Silvia and were so pleased with them that we went back for seconds! She was so kind and even tho we couldn’t communicate well we bonded! Only bummer was the sauna was broken! Wish we could have used it as that is definitely part of the reason we booked this place.

Property is poorly soundproofed - you hear everything. It is a long distance from the center of town, and not in a nice area. The front desk staff actually told me not to eat in the restaurant because it was not good - disappointing. The good - the complimentary breakfast was nice, the staff were very helpful, my bed was pretty comfortable, and lots of hot water for showering. I probably wouldn’t stay at Koi Aiken again.

The people. Both the morning and evening staff at reception, the breakfast staff, the housekeepers, and best of all, the dinner-time restaurant chef and waitress. All-around great. If you're there a few days, try all the soups! And the avacado and shrimp salad. Really, try it all. Please leave a good tip in your room for the housekeepers. They work hard. I hope they keep their chef. His soups, salads, and fish dishes are primo.

Wonderful view from the 2nd level cozy sitting room! We felt immediately super welcome, got some unplanned small lunch because we were starving, all the staff were super friendly and the lunch box for the Petito Moreno excursion was heavenly! On the last day we got super early breakfast with warm croissants, it was just a suberb stay.

Nice hotel with a great view and fantastic staff

This hotel is nice, the staff is extremely helpful, and not to mention the restaurant is actually one of the best (and cost the least) in the area. It is a bit further away from town, so you wanna get a cab or drive. The restaurant could be slow but if you order ahead of time it is fine. Love this place.

Great Service, but a little too far from the town

The hotel is very clean and all of the staff are very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and our meals at the hotel were totally fine. The staff helped us arrange a tour and made calls for us when our flight was cancelled. The hotel is about 2 km away from the town center, and it is not walkable. You will need to take taxis to and from the center of El Calafate, where the restaurants and tour agencies are located.
