Budget friendly
11 Jul 2026
From the moment I checked in until check out it was a very pleasant experience. I asked for early check in and I was able to check in a couple of hours before normal check in times. I was instantly greeted by a warm smile from the front desk associate (this lady is fantastic). I got to my room and was very clean and tidy. I headed out for lunch and was greeted by another friendly staff member (she was awesome) that gave me some suggestions for lunch. The bar attendant was very polite and friendly like pretty much everyone I got in contact to. Breakfast is included and is served between 6:30 to 10am. With multiple bread options, lots of beverages and assorted pastries. The breakfast attendant was also very friendly and polite. I had a great experience staying at this hotel and it's like 30 minutes walk to the downtown. I would definitely recommend this hotel for any solo travel or family vacation. Thanks to everyone that helped me had a great time here. This staff really loves providing great service in hospitality. Mariano Benedetto, Director General at Rochester Hotel Calafate, responded to this review Dear Agdita,Thank you so much for your kind review and for choosing our hotel for your stay in El Calafate.

After flying down from Buenos Aries I stayed at this Hotel in El. Calafate. Very nice place!! Breakfast was nothing special which came with the room accommodations. The open property and the grounds were very nice! Was nice to be out in the country compared to the big cities!! Nice and quiet!!

Lovely hotel but a bit distant from town
08 Dec 2025
This is a lovely hotel an easy walk from the lakeside. Staff were helpful and the room was very nice. However it is quite distant from the the town and the shuttle bus is not very helpful - only starting in the afternoon and finishing early - so unless you have transport or hire a taxi you may be stuck in the hotel on an evening. Since the food was good this was not a problem for me. It is well worth visiting the Lago Nimez nature reserve the other side of town to see many birds. It is 90 minutes walk along the lakeside which would have been pleasant but for the very high winds which made it uncomfortable. I was told autumn is less windy . Mariano Benedetto, Director General at Rochester Hotel Calafate, responded to this review Dear Des, thank you so much for choosing Rochester Calafate and for your review.We are delighted that you loved the hotel and enjoyed the amenities, services, and the attention of our staff. The hotel is located three minutes from the town center, and Laguna Nimez is a wonderful spot for birdwatchers.It will be a pleasure to welcome you back to Rochester Hotels in Buenos Aires, Bariloche, Buzios, and El Calafate.Best regards

everything will be charged
05 May 2025
The hotel is very beautiful, but the service is questionable. Nothing is included. If you want a wine glass, it costs 4,500 pesos. If you want them to open your bottle, that’s another 4,500 pesos. Even eating in your room costs 5,000 pesos — and that’s just for the option to eat there, not including the food or service. Basically, everything you want to do comes with an extra charge. The only things included are the overnight stay and breakfast. Mariano Benedetto, Director General at Rochester Hotel Calafate, responded to this review Dear Pedro,Thank you very much for your feedback.I am very sorry to hear that your experience was rated negatively.This reminds us that, as with any hotel worldwide, our products and services have fixed prices and are marketed accordingly.Our hotel operates under clear and transparent rules, and our team is always ready to offer the best possible service.Thank you for your visit.Sincerely,
