“Close to both the bus station and downtown El Calafate, this hotel makes getting around simple. I found the on-site restaurant, with its regional cuisine and Argentine wine cellar, a particular highlight, as well as the customizable breakfast options. Though some might find the facilities a touch dated, the location and service strike me as solid advantages.”
