Better stay and staff elsewhere

The lodging is split into upstairs (bedroom) and downstairs (kitchen and bathroom). Bright, welcoming and modern, with lots of space for belongings. Block out curtains were a plus. Location was not close to town and requires at least 10mins walk (steep uphill on way back).

Fantastic stay at the Blue Glacier & wonderful host!

Viviana was an excellent host - super helpful with any questions, booking tours and really responsive on WhatsApp with any questions we had about El Calafete or the facilities. Short distance to the Main Street. Kitchen was a great help as we were backpacking.

Great place to stay in El Calafate. We stayed here for 7 nights in total with trips to Torres del Paine and El Chalten in between. The host is a really lovely person. She was flexible with payment, always kind, patient with my bad Spanish and allowed us to check out a little later with no charge. The rooms are all comfortable with nice en suites, good heaters and well equipped kitchen. It is about a 10 minute walk to the Main Street in El Calafate. Very good value.

The Glacier was amazing.

Viviana was very welcoming and gave us lots of info on El Calafate, it was great also to get our Laundry done and it took her no time at all. It was a cosy and warm place to stay. Great to know the short cut into town.

Warm greetings.

When we came Vivian greeted us with warm hugs, and she did everything we asked for. Navigated us with good restaurannt and told us practical things. Vinvan did our laundry perfectly. If we come back to El Calafate we would like to stay here even though the accommodation is not five star.

Beautiful, well-equipped apartment with a welcoming host

The owner was very kind and allowed us to check in early and stay longer. The apartment is very beautiful and clean. It has everything you need and is thoughtful decorated. It's a great place to stay if you’re looking for some peace and quiet or a bit of quality time together.

Great Place and Great Value for money

The place was really well equipped, great kitchen. The shower was hot. The room was spacious, the host was really helpful and booked us a taxi. It is walkable to town just up a hill. The dog was also a highlight for us.

Couldn't recommend it more.

Lovely host, went above and beyond for us. Had a few minor issues but she came in and sorted them immediately. Nice kitchen with good utensils. Good shower with hot water. Well-heated unit that warms up nicely. Walkable location to the main tourist street with shops and restaurants. Everywhere in El Calafate is pricey so this offers relatively good value for money.
