Great bang for the buck!!! Central location, great staff, wonderful room, fantastic ammenities!!!
Dining room food was not great and excessive dos barking every night while not the hotel’s responsibility it is good to know if you are planning to stay there. Staff were great and check in was flaweless
Had a very nice 3-night stay. Great check in experience. We were given a welcome drink, and Juan Manuel at the reception was excellent with his professionalism, friendliness, and willing to help. He gave us great recommendations for dinner as well.
Room was spacious, clean, and had an in-room safe and mini-ref.
Breakfast was plentiful with ample selection.
Location can't be beat being in the centre of town. Close to many restaurants and shops.
Highly recommended.
Hotel Kosten Aike is a perfect home away from home, offering exceptional hospitality and comfort. The friendly staff went above and beyond, providing breakfast and storing my bag until my room was ready. The cozy lobby features great amenities like a bar, shops, a restaurant, and game tables, adding to the relaxing atmosphere. Its excellent location, just two blocks from the main area in a quiet and safe neighborhood, makes it convenient for exploring the town’s top attractions. An awesome stay overall!
We stayed here for one night before tour as we could knock it in the hotel we had to meet at which was only down the block. The room was fine. The staff was friendly, and the included breakfast was sufficient.
The staff was great, Juan was the first person that welcomed us with a friendly and professional service. He helped us and answered all the questions we had. The room was clean and spacious. Their breakfast was delicious and Lorena was the person in charge also always with a smile, their lobby was clean and comfortable
There is a special place reserved in the review world to hotels like Kosten Aike. It is that of a hotel that embraces the environment it is set in and makes the guest’s experience more complete.
This was how I felt during my four night stay at Kosten Aike. From the moment I arrived and throughout my visit, I was greeted by helpful, attentive and friendly staff - from the reception (special thank you to Ernes!) to the dining room to the spa.
The room I stayed in was clean, cozy and comfortable. I had dinner at the hotel restaurant on one of the nights and was pleased with the variety of local options to choose from (try the trout!). I found the breakfast menu fresh, with many delicious offerings and especially enjoyed the large variety of baked goods, all made in house.
I did appreciate the attention the hotel gives to sustainability, especially being in a city surrounded by nature at its most majestic.
All in all a comforting, unique experience, as befits a place like El Calafate
This was the most lovely hotel we have probably stayed in. The staff was incredibly friendly and kind; they arranged for an early check-in for us on short notice, provided lots of information about the El Calafate area, and arranged for a very early airport pick up for us. Highly recommend staying here!
