Cozy hotel that’s like a home away from home
Lovely stay in Chaltén! This hostería is in a great location within walking distance to everything. It’s about a 20 min walk to the main trailheads, but it’s a flat, easy, and scenic walk. The hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We felt like we were at home! Breakfast was hearty and delicious with homemade cakes every morning. It was a treat! Our room was spacious and quiet and had everything we needed, including extra pillows, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. We even had a nice view of Fitz Roy! Bonus- the pizza place across the street is delicious. I absolutely recommend this stay!

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.

6/10 Good

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 Good

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....

8/10 Very good

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.

Nous tenons à remercier chaleureusement Nicolas et Patricia pour leur gentillesse, leurs bons conseils, et la tenue de leur établissement construit et aménagé simplement mais efficacement. Le Fitz Roy face à vous le matin, l'excellente literie, le petit déjeuner délicieux cuisiné par Patricia, l'atmosphère chaleureuse qui règne font que nous garderons un excellent souvenir de cet endroit Allez-y et détendez-vous!
