    noise disturbance
    transportation issues

    The location is excellent, just a short walk to the best restaurants. The spacious room was impeccably clean, and the comfortable bed made for great nights of sleep. Breakfast featured scrambled eggs and hot toast, perfect for fueling a day of hiking. The packed lunches were thoughtfully prepared, with lightweight snacks and a refreshing apple. A few inconveniences included limited dining options on-site and some noise from neighboring areas.

    I greatly appreciated the owner’s extensive knowledge about local hiking trails. She provided valuable tips and even lent us walking poles for our adventures. The breakfast was hearty with scrambled eggs, assuring we were fueled for our hikes around El Chalten.

    Minor kitchen utensil shortage.

    shared kitchen
    small rooms
    poor maintenance

    nice and spacious rooms upstairs, small shared kitchen, limited breakfast offerings

    Downstairs rooms too small with no view!!! Maintenance could use some attention as water drainage in washbasins is poor!!! A deposit requirement of 50,000 pesos feels unnecessary!!! Internet connection is limited across the property!!!

    delicious packed lunches
    thoughtful gluten-free options
    poor shower drain

    I was pleasantly surprised by the delicious packed lunches they provided for hikes, and the gluten-free breakfast options were a thoughtful touch! However, the shower drain could use some improvement.

    clean linens
    helpful staff
    standoffish receptionist

    simple place but excellent service

    The cleanliness of the fresh bedsheets and towels made for a comfortable environment. The staff were accommodating, especially in regard to my special dietary needs, offering gluten-free options that exceeded my expectations. I particularly enjoyed the view of Fitz Roy peak from the common balcony, adding a special touch to our evenings.

    The female receptionist could come off as a bit stand off-ish at times.

    lack of variety

    I had a lovely stay at Guanaca Lodge. The room was not only cozy and clean but also equipped with convenient USB charging options. The staff, particularly the lady at reception, was incredibly helpful with my hiking queries and made me feel welcome throughout my visit.

    Limited kitchen utensils.

    spotty internet
    limited dining options

    Fantastic advice for hikers and hearty breakfast

    I had a great experience at the lodge, especially appreciated the delicious breakfast with scrambled eggs and toast that helped fuel my hiking adventures. The owner was incredibly knowledgeable about the trails, offering fantastic tips and even lending a hand in finding the best starting points for our hikes. The packed lunches were well thought out, with lightweight snacks that were perfect for our day-long outings. However, the internet could have been better as it was a bit spotty during my stay.
