This was the best stay I had over two weeks in Argentina! It starts with the hosts - Nico welcomed us warmly and showed us our room and its amenities while offering insight into trails and dining options. Patricia was delightful and charming and accommodated for all of our needs. Plus, her home baking at breakfast time is not to be missed! The property itself is modern, bright and super clean. The linens and towels smelled SO GOOD and retained their freshness for the duration of our three night stay. The cleaners also tidy up exceptionally well and even folded up the laundry we hung to dry! I would definitely stay here again for my next visit to El Chalten! I don't even need to consider another spot. This place is as exceptional as it gets!

Disliked: Amenities
Poor value for money. The family who owns and operate the hotel are super nice. However the facility itself is very poor. Internet connection is slow or not working. The town has no cellular connection so this is super important. The rooms are very very basic. Not even a nice couch to sit on. Breakfast is very basic though all bread and cakes are homemade. I would not go there again.

Be prepared to pay 5-10% extra
The hotel charged us 50 USD more for our stay, as compared to the price stated on our reservation. The claimed it was due to the exchange rate. We felt that this is very dishonest, they just wanted to take advantage of us. Breakfast: nice breakfast, mostly homemade. Room: simple, but clean. Unfortunately, the walls are very thin, and you don't have a lot privacy. You hear everything your neighbor says and does, and we often did not get a good night's sleep because of other guests waking up early or coming home late. Location: great, close to bus station, grocery store, pharmacy, spa, restaurants, hikes. The hotel also has a bar/beer garden attached. Unfortunately, that means very loud music during weekend evenings, until quite late. It felt like being next to a nightclub, not like being in a small quiet village in the mountains.

Nice and simple.
The owner Patricia and her son Nico were wonderful. She bakes fresh goodies every morning which makes breakfast extra special. The rooms are simple, no TV which was more than fine for me, the shower was great which sometimes can be an issue in Argentina as the water pressure is not very good. I'll definitely will stay with them next time I go to El Chalten.

Good location in El Chaltén.
This hotel is well maintained and conveniently located in the center of town. Facilities and staff services are fine, pretty much the standard we encountered at other Argentine hotels. The only issue was payment - for some reason they could not process Visa payments, only Mastercard. We had to use an ATM debit card, and there was subsequently a fraudulent charge on that account. It would be better to pre-pay your bill.

6/10 Okay

Verified traveller

Had a good stay here. The building itself and interior decorations have character and it is in a good location, just up the hill from main street and the waterfront. There are lots of stairs in the building and it is up a relatively steep hill from the center of town if that's not your thing. Included breakfast was quite good and available tea and baked goods throughout the day was a nice touch. Our room had a musty smell when we first checked in, but it may have just been due to the mop used to clean it for our arrival.

If your mom had a hotel to stay at in Chalten, this is it. Hugs at check in, easy to check in, breakfast cakes made daily, recommendations for places to eat, opened breakfast early so we could have something before bus left.... plus its an easy walk from bus station. Reasonably priced and wuill stay here again!!

Wonderful stay at Hosteria Kau Si Aike -El Chalten
We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at this Hosteria. Only very few places offer a stay with such a friendly welcome and full of personal touches by the hostess... From early check-in free of charge into our clean and spacious room, to the many helpful tips and specifics on walks and other things to do in the Fitzroy area. And last but not least the home baked cakes served each morning at breakfast - sooooo tasty!! We loved the location too: quite central in El Chalten, not too far from the bus station and close to a bakery (serving yummy empanadas), a local grocery store and restaurants....

Overall very friendly and nice owners. Hosteria in a good location but it is a small town anyways. Rooms very clean and spacious but very basic. No attention to detail and some simple DIY would be useful. Overall ok to come back from a days hike.
