Rooms are big. The outside view is excellent. Bathroom shower does not have curtain to prevent water from going out.

The lake and mountain View is gorgeous and the room is ver spacious. The bed is very nice. However, some of the electrical outlets did not work at all, the breakfast was poor too.

The property could be so much more. 1 dirty table, 3 chairs and an ash bucket on the deck overlooking Lake Argentino is such a waste of this space and a waste of the opportunity for people to enjoy the views with a drink or a bite.

Great spot. Right on the lake. Great drinks and breakfast. Would stay again

4/10

Great location. Amazing view. Breakfast good. Building not maintained well. Sheets were dirty. Heard this from other people saying the same to reception staff. Heat knobs broken. Feels like a 1980’s hotel with great looks from afar yet dated from up close. No frills experience.

The view of my unit was over looking the laguna Argentino, which was a great view. Besides of the view, it didn't offer anything. I was disappointed with dining, the restaurant was closed and the breakfast had very little options. If you want have eggs, bacon or sausage, you have to pay for it. The free breakfast stuffs were bread, ham, cheese, slice fruits, and coffee. I don't it's worth of money.

The hotel has a new and an old area. The new is remodeled and the pictures are the one you see when you make the reservation. The old area is dirty, the walls are cracked and stained as well as the cover sheets. There was a dead bug on the curtains. We changed hotels

The hotel is ok, kind of old. Staff was great. What I did not expect was that water from the tap was murky! I couldn’t get an answer as to why this was. It kind of scared me. I would be hesitant to stay there again.

The hotel was comfortable enough, clean but a bit tired looking. Breakfast was served in miniature sizes (shot glass glasses for juice) and you had to pay extra for eggs (everywhere else in Argentina they were free).

We stayed at Las Dunas Hotel after trekking in Torres del Paine. The building itself could use a little upkeep, but the friendly staff and attentive service make up for it. While about 7 minutes away by car or 30 minute walk along the waterfront from the town centre, is literally steps away from the shores of Lago Argentino. The majority of the rooms have a view of the lake, the islands in it and the mountains behind it. There’s also a nearby trail where once can discover the flora and fauna. The massage was also a nice post-trek service that they provide, but must be booked the day before.

Breakfast terrible. Nothing except bread and OJ. Bad bad bad. Excellent view.
