Clean Room, shower offering shampoo, conditioner and soap (but bring your own towel). Good breakfast and very useful laundry service (15.000 pesos as of Spring 2026). The restaurant offers lunchboxes (viandas) for excursions. Helpful and available staff. Large lockers.

Rooms are a bit shabby, as one expects from a hostel, but the staff goes above and beyond. Facilities are great, with travel and trekking assistance provided. Plus the prepared is far better than anything one typically gets from a hostel. Bit of a walk across unlit dirt roads from the main center, coming back is all uphill, but otherwise a great place to stay!
Great location, knowledgeable staff, comfy beds and good public space. Extras - laundry service, taxi and travel bookings make this a good spot. Basic breakfast included but can add eggs for a cheap fee. Would recommend this spot. We are older travelers and enjoy the younger vibe.

Amazing hostel! Great vibes, super nice staff, and beautiful views! They helped us book activities and gave great recs for food in town which is a short walk away. Will be coming back
Genuinely loved this place! Found it accidentally and was surprised how nice it was! Also the people/staffs and the atmosphere was incredible! Wish we'd stayed longer but would definitely choose the same place if we ever came back to El Calafate again!
the staff was friendly and always happy to answer question and offer additional information regarding calafate and near by attraccions.
The place offer a great atmosphere of friendship and good vibes.
Very well maintained and great location.
Even though this is on the hill little outside of main area but short walking distance and nice separation to be quiet.
Facility is very clean and they offer laundry service which was great.
Also this hostel offer airport transportation and other fun tours cheaper than many of local tour companies, so you should reach out before taking taxi from the airport or booking online.
Great hostel, one of the best we’ve stayed in after 9 months travelling in South America. Staff are friendly and helpful, always willing to answer questions. Breakfast options are really good. Can book tours at the hostel, we booked Moreno Glacier and we booked the half day kayaking tour, which was incredible. The hostel also booked the bus for us which was convenient.

Rooms Ok But service and food were fantastic!!
The staff really went out of their way to help us book a tour To Torres Del Paine. The follow up was amazing and their help was above and beyond. Much appreciated!
Excellent Hostel with lovely friendly staff. Nice vibe. But we were charged WAY too much for our four nights. Not sure if it was Expedia or the hostel but there is no way a hostel should be charging this much a night.
Fabulous hostel, really warm mid winter - both in the room and common areas, fireplace, the dogs were an unexpected boon! Modern rooms with excellent floor heating - exactly what you want/need after a long day out in Patagonian winter! Good food in the restaurant (arepas!), hot dishes included in the free breakfast, amazing views, reasonably-priced laundry service. Short walk to the town centre. Really friendly and helpful staff. Couldn't be happier.

Good views. Except that everything was poor. Comparing the money i pay.
Convenient if you are keeping yourself occupied with tours every day. Breakfast is ok, not paved roads on streets to main roads. Staff is knowledgeable and able to assist you in whatever you need.
