“Design Suites Calafate presents a modern face with views over Argentino Lake, though some areas show signs of wear. The on-site restaurant and bar add convenience, and the inclusion of spa facilities and a pool is a definite plus. I think the location near Lake Argentino and the Nimes Peninsula makes it a suitable base for exploring El Calafate.”
