Nice location with panoramic views of the lake, city and mountain peaks. Within walking distance to city center. Food quality and service is outstanding.
The Calafate is a beautiful town, there are many activities to do, The Perito Moreno Glacier is one of the must and The Chaltén another must you do, El Fuerte Hotel has an amazing panoramic view of the city and the lake, the rooms are ok, the food delicious and the service is excellent

Easy access hotel. Great staff
The hotel has an amazing view. Rooms are clean but bathrooms very cramped. Easily accessible as you enter into El Calafate. Perfect stop for the night before flying out.
The staff were VERY friendly here! We messed up the dates of our reservation and the owners kept the place open just for us! Couldn’t be happier with the service we recieved.
A good room with a great view. Very helpful people. Only a few minutes drive outside Calafate so ideal if you have a car and only a short taxi ride if not.
My husband and I stayed here for 3 days 2 nights! The hotel is very pretty and cozy, more of a rustic look! the beds are not the most confortable beds, will not compare to a Hiltons bed BUT they are very clean, the staff is super friendly and very helpful, it has a gorgeous view to the city and lake, completely serve the purpose for the price! They have a restaurant with really good local food! Will definitely recommend this hotel!!!
It was really amazing. The hotel staff was extremely friendly. Cleanliness was spot on. The buffet breakfast was really good. the view from the hotel was amazing.
I definitely recommend people to stay in here. I haven’t been in a hotel with as good people as this one.

Beautiful views from the hotel.
Friendly staff, limited breakfast choices and remarkable selection of provided food (f.e. one little container of jelly with more than plenty bread). Windy spot but we ware given a room at the back where there was very limited wind noise.
You should primarily chose this hotel for the view and the friendly staff.
The staff made the experience very intimate and lovely as they were very accommodating to us.
The only slight downside was the size of the room and the fact that people would be turned off by the location of the hotel compared to some closer to the centre.
Nice small family hotel in the outskirts of Calafate.
Pro's: Reasonable price, very friendly and service minded owner/staff, good value restaurant (El Calafate is a very expensive town). Great view from the hotel.
Con's: No internet in our room, 2-3 km from city center (but taxis are cheap). Quite windy as the hotel is on a hill top.

Great Views but Small Rooms!
Views are phenomenal here & so is the owner, he’a very friendly & helpful. Food & views at the upstairs restaurant are great! But my room was a little small for my taste & felt quite cramped (bathroom door ran into toilet). It’s also quite far from town (not that walk-able), so if you want to be close to town ~ stay elsewhere!
I absolutely loved staying here. We unfortunately got in late and had to leave early, but our short time there was great. The hotel is run by a father and son who are extremely kind and welcoming. The hotel feels more like a home and is very cozy. The rooms have high ceilings and the entire hotel is wonderfully decorated. Upstairs, there is a restaurant with amazing views overlooking the town and the lake. The chef makes every meal fresh to order and the food is absolutely incredible. If I am ever back in the area, I am most definitely going to be staying here again; I highly recommend it.
the bad :
very old hotel. maybe 1 star.
more like 80’s style hotel with old beds and thin walls.
do not get a room close to the reception area its very noist at times.
the good:
Very helpful family running the place
the view from the hotel is amazing
First, let me say I almost never write reviews although I travel for a living. I cant cant recommend this hotel enough. Nestor, the manager, was welcoming; helpful; courteous; and professional. He went well above what I think excellent service is. The hotel, while not downtown, has great views from the highest point in El Calafate. For the price this hotel is a steal. In all honesty the price doubled I would stay here if I visited El Calafate again.
