Beautiful little hideaway
The grounds are beautiful, bursting with flowers that are clearly well tended to. Room itself has nice charm and a beautiful view of the lake. We arrived extremely late due to a flight delay, but we were met by a member of their staff who drove to the hotel after midnight to check us in. They also reached out to arrange our airport pickup, which was really appreciated. Staff was incredibly nice and made us feel very welcome. Breakfast delivery is to your door the night before, nice touch. We walked into town in about 30 minutes using the low road by the riverside, which we enjoyed. My only complaint is that the water sometimes worked in our unit, and sometimes didn’t come out of the taps at all. We didn’t bring this to the attention of the staff so I’m not sure if there was anything they could do to fix it.

The sweetest place
This place is so cute and cozy. The food is delicious. The staff is so sweet! They arranged taxi pick up and drop off from the airport. The Wi-Fi is bad toward the further away cabanas, so might not be an idea location if you have to work. The food at the restaurant is excellent! Tours also pick up from this location.

1. Mattress is out of shape and old, it's very uncomfortable to sleep on it. 2. Bath towels are very old and in bad shape, need replacements. 3. Internet service is poor in the cabin. 4. Breakfast service was unexpected, served the night before in the cabin.

Loved this property during our stay. Everyday around 7 pm they came with a beautiful breakfast tray which made it very convient for morning excursions. The main girl that worked there made our stay super welcoming. Beds are comfortable and our room had a full size kitchen. Overall would stay here again

Excellent rooms but a little worn
Clean, comfortable, plenty of hot water, and a great view. The space is showing wear around the edges. The staff is great. The breakfast is adequate, but barely. The WiFi is slow. Bottom line - there's nothing wrong with the rooms but there's nothing great about them either. This will work better for you if you have a car.

Value for the money. Very attentive service. Generous breakfast every morning in the room. Accoutrements in the room a little dated, but you came here for nature not to sleep in a room. The key system if you are used to american locks a little bit annoying. Takes practice. The view spectacular. But it's vacation, enjoy.

Interesting place
Very nice place. People that work there were very friendly and helpful. It's a ways to town (long walk, better to have a car or take taxi). They bring breakfast to your room the night before. Breakfast was more limited than most but was fine for our needs. More like staying in a little cabin than a normal hotel room.

We loved our one night stay here, just wished it could be longer. We had our own little cabin, breakfast was on a tray the night before which made it very leisurely. Great views of lake and mountains. Nice gardens and friendly service.

Beware of owner
The owner lacks bedside manner; maybe he was having a bad day. As he was showing me the cabin i felt like I wasn't allowed to use most of the basic facilities. I can appreciate conserving gas/water however his attitude was not welcoming and I felt like he was taiking down to me which made it very unpleasant. The towels were stained but I thought, hey they are just old. I got back from an excursion and he greated me with a complaint. I stained his towels and he was trying to "save them" i advised him that they were in that condition before i even used them. Customer service goes a LONG way. I didn't dispute the charges, booked and paid for 5 nights and checked out after the second. The young man at the front desk was polite and helpful, he should be running the place.

convenient to the glacier and no highway noise
close to glacier further from airport. if you have a rental car be prepared to wait in line for one of two gas stations.. they bring your breakfast to you the night before because you have a little kitchen to prepare the food.

Very nice mini-townhouse set-up with great view.
Very nice mini-townhouse set-up with great view of lake from bedroom balcony. 1st floor had a kitchen, full bath and living room/dining area. Very cute. We walked to town but probably to far for most. If you drive there is parking & there is also taxi service. Staff was great and very friendly. Everything very clean. They drop off a hardy breakfast the night before for you to prepare in your own kitchen...so it was nice not to have to shower and dress to go to breakfast. The place oozes with character!

Wonderful hotel walking distance from city center.
Wonderful hotel. Great, friendly service. The front desk representative fronted me money to go on a tour from his own pocket without hesitation. The food was delicious. Breakfast was hand delivered to my room each night. I received reminders from the front desk about upcoming tours. The hotel is a bit far away from city center, but I easily walked to and from the hotel each day (roughly 30 minutes). Beautiful, quiet downtown area. Very friendly people. I highly recommend this hotel to everyone. Although I was traveling alone, I would consider this hotel a must for families.

Cosy hotel, very convenient for tours
Very helpful and friendly staff. We stayed over Christmas and Solares colleagues managed to sort out tours to all of the main attractions at the last minute. The location is ideal for the tours - you get picked up last and dropped off first, compared to the hotels in the centre of town, saving a lot of time.

It wasn't good enough to be so far out of town.
We stayed here with our 7 and 4 year olds. The cabin was nice enough and the hotel staff were very friendly and helpful when arranging e.g. a rental car. But a rental car was needed because the hotel is a long way from anywhere you'd want to go in Calafate. You can walk, but it's quite a long way and not a particularly pleasant walk. I was surprised by the TripAdvisor awards on the wall.
