The price per night is a bit off-putting, but I'm so glad we splurged on this one night of our trip! The landscape in Los Huemules estancia makes for an incredible hike to and from the refuge, so a day trip for lunch would be totally worth it on its own, but getting to spend the night in such a beautiful setting in the cosiest of refuges was such a treat. Even in cloudy weather the view to the lagoon and glacier was spectacular, and getting to enjoy it inside with a warm drink and a book next to the fire was heaven. We also had some of the best meals of our trip here, with special mention to Marco's sourdough bread! Thank you for an unforgettable stay 🙏

Outstanding place to Xmas Eve.

Amazing place to spend Xmas Eve. Extraordinary environment and views. Sky at night is spectacular. Food was excellent and the level of care put into lunch, dinner, drinks and general comfort by the hosts Marcus and Cecelia was really appreciated. They had some champagne for bringing in Xmas Day. Would love to go back in the future. Hike there are back is really beautiful and unlike other hikes in the area. Office staff that help coordinate you visit were also helpful - they ordered a ride at the bottom of the trail on Xmas Day for me.

Puesto Cagliero was a perfect place to stay for a couple nights after a few long hiking days. The hike through the nature reserve is ~6km, and took us about 2 hours. It was a beautiful walk though, going by lakes, through the forest along the river, until it opens up as you get close to the lodge and get views of the mountains and glacier. Since the lodge is in the nature reserve and you have to hike to it, that also keeps the crowds away which was also lovely. People do hike up just for lunch, but we were really glad we stayed the night. On our first night, we were the only guests and the second night a few other people came which was a nice mix. The lodge is definitely rustic, but the views are incredible, the lodge is really cozy, and the food was tasty When you arrive, they prepare dulce de leche crepes, which were such a nice treat. It's a perfect place to relax, with beautiful views of the glacier, reading a book by the wood stove, with a glass of wine or beer. Our room had bunk beds that could sleep three, but we were two and had the room to ourselves. The beds were comfortable and warm, and we also had a private bathroom /shower in the room which was really nice. The hosts (Marco and Cecilia) were also wonderful, really attentive and lovely to talk with. We had varied and ample meals, with pasta one night, butternut squash soup and lentil stew another night, and pizza and salad for lunch one day with a boxed lunch to-go another. All were really tasty.

The stay was a little expensive, and beer / wine were not included in the price. For us though, we thought the views, the solitude, and the hospitality made it worth the price.

- nothing to complain about.

Incredible hospitality in a unique & beautiful spot!

Absolutely everything! Best place we have ever stayed! The hospitality was incredible, the hot chocolate and pancakes on arrival was such a nice touch. Its better than the photos, the views are indescribable! Beds super comfy, lovely space downstairs. Cannot recommend this experience more!!!

Another dimension

We thought of Puesto Cagliero as a place in another dimension. You can absolutely disconnect, enjoy nature, lay back an read all the books you want (they have a quite interesting Patagonia collection). The beds were super comfy and the place very cosy and nicely decorated. Ice trek is definitely a must. Alvaro was super polite! We hope to come back some time!

Meals are very basic though (especially for the price they charge). We stayed many days and main courses were not that tasty. Room clean up in between our stay was below standard (just emptied the trash bin).

Quiet getaway from busy El Chalten

Location, staff, food and the hike up.

Only downside is there are not many hikes you can do from the hut, so one night is enough.
