Hotel confortável e limpeza impecável

Hotel lindo , limpeza impecável, excelente quarto com uma vista linda. Café da manhã o básico nada de diferente e no último dia que era domingo foi mais fraco ainda pelo hotel que e , o café da manhã teria que ser bem melhor. Piscina térmica ótima , academia ruim e a localização não e boa bem afastado da cidade apesar de ter o transfer no não ajuda muito porque são poucos horários.

Têm outros melhores!

Hotel com vista incrível, longe da cidade (transfer limitado), necessitando de reformar urgente. O lobby é bonito e moderno, os quartos estão com sinais de uso e necessitando de limpeza melhor (como podem ver a cortina na foto). O spa e a academia são muito ruins, porém entrará em reforma. Não recomendo, tem outros melhores na cidade!

Tiffani, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent base for exploring Calafate region, but a little outside main town, so reliant on 10 min trip by shuttle (pick ups twice a day in or out of town), or 45 min walk to centre along lake. Hotel was wonderful - really friendly, responsive staff, great facilities and restaurant, clean, well designed rooms, good pool, great views over lake.

Design Sites at Calafate was exactly what we were looking for to kickstart our winter time in Patagonia: cozy, very clean, inviting, easy access, and well located with amazing views of the lake and mountains. Highly recommended!

It was an amazing view and beautiful room and location looking at the lake, amazing sunrise and sunsets, warm and helpful reception and staff, good restaurant, lovely pool and more. Easy to get to town by hotel shuttle or taxi (or longer walk). We would totally stay there again.
