Ótimo hotel, não tenha duvidas de escolhê-lo!
Pros:

Fomos comemorar 10 anos de casamento, e foi perfeito! O hotel tem um ambiente muito romântico, funcionários muito atenciosos, quarto muito bom! Sensacional, um dos melhores hotéis que já me hospedei!

Luxueus hotel in El Calafate, heerlijk als he een tijdje wat meer spartaans hebt fedaan
Pros:

Goed ontbijt en fijne combi verwarmd zwembad en sauna

Cons:

Als lokatie was het een beetje uit centrum. Maar voor zo’n kwaliteits hotel was de wifi echt heel slecht op de kamers, kan echt niet!
En de kamers waren gehorig. En er zijn veel tours die heel vroeg beginnen

May be try a better option
Pros:

Very average hotel. Although we had a big room, the service was very bad. No one in reception speaks English. The room is located on the busy street, very noisy all night. The staff that cleaned a room next to us late in the evening, were so loud that I had to come out in my PJ to ask them to stop the noise. Breakfast was not nice, all was there but low quality. No one to speak to. I am positive that there are better hotel in the area.
