Admittedly when our driver passed through the small town of El Calafate and kept driving for a few km's, we thought we'd made a mistake on hotel's location, but our stay was so great we were very pleased with this option. As seen in posted reviews, each gabled roof portion of hotel facade is one of the 8 x 2... More

Having stayed in many hotels in many places in the world, none of us can remember any with better service than Los Ponchos Apart. They were gracious and hospitable throughout our three night stay but went really above and beyond the night before we were scheduled to make a somewhat complicated trip (involving a bus to Rio Gallegos to catch...

Our family of 8 spent an incredible 3 days over New Year's 2013 at Los Ponchos. From the moment you walk in the front door, you are greeted with a warm smile and attention to detail. Pamela stayed up late and waited for us to arrive so she could personally see that everything was wonderful for us. The room set... More

We had a wonderful stay at Los Ponchos. The hotel is small, but has everything you'll need: attentive staff, a comfortable room, and delicious breakfast served in the room. The hotel is in a beautiful area with wonderful views of the lake. The rooms are two-story apartment-style and equipped with everything you'd want in a small apartment. It was a... More

Well before our arrival at Los Ponchos, the staff there graciously responded (in excellent English, I might add) with helpful suggestions to our emailed queries about transportation and activity options. During our stay (two days before a short trip to El Chalten, and then one other day) the staff was unflaggingly helpful, whether booking a day trip to Perito Moreno... More

Location and Description : These are fabulous, modern apartments, suitable for all travellers – couples, families, as well as single travellers. While we were there, two large families were staying as well, but when this happens, they accommodate the family in the other wing of... More

Los Ponchos is a beautiful property with absolutely fantastic staff who speak excellent English. It has ~8-10 units (and one large cottage in the back); our unit was two levels with the bedroom on the second level and a small living room area with flat screen TV, bathroom and tiny kitchen on the lower level. Three of us shared the... More

We had a lovely 3 night stay at Los Ponchos. The staff were absolutely amazing, better than many 5 star hotels we have stayed at. Nothing was too much trouble. They helped us booked restaurants, organise tours, arranged packed lunches, etc..... They made us feel incredibly welcome, every time we arrived back they were waiting at the door to greet... More

Let me be clear: This is a lovely property, built into a hilly area, a taxi-ride out of town. The staff couldn't be more pleasant and helpful. Our visit took place during a period when the weather was unusually hot, so we were told. It may have been unusual, but that's when we were there, and our spacious suite was... More
