Stayed in room 24 which faces the afternoon sun. It's already autumn but the room got so hot in the afternoon that we had to open the window to let in the cool autumm air. Unfortunately, the houseflies flew in too! We spent the next 2 days getting rid of the houseflies. I think we killed at least 6 of them. Cannot imagine what it's like to be staying in that room in summer.
On the other hand, breakfast was good - their alfajores were fantastic. Location - on San Martin avenue and close to the start of the main hikes such as laguna del tres, laguna capri and chorillo de salto. There are 2 cosy sitting areas in the lobby (good to hang out in to get away from the hot room). Complimentary coffee and lemon infused water was a nice touch too.

Bed was very comfortable and the staff very nice and helpful. The only small complaints are maybe shower walls could be cleaner and WiFi is not strong in the rooms.

Extremely clean and cute hotel. Check out is rather early in most hotels in Patagonia at 10 am but they allowed us to rest in their very comfy lobby for some time.

I had an amazing stay at Poincenot! All the hosts were incredibly welcoming and the accommodation exceeded expectations. The location was convenient, with easy access to “El Sendero al Fitz Roy”. Also, the cleanliness was top-notch, the breakfast and the amenities provided added extra comfort. I highly recommend it.
I will never forget that one of the girls from the front desk (I’m sorry I don’t recall your name) lent me a pair of trekking poles. I wouldn’t have made it without them.

After staying at the hotel for three nights with six people in three rooms, I would like to confidently give Hotel Poincenot a five-star rating. In terms of service, they were the best among the six hotels we stayed at during our 18-day trip. During check-in, Milena patiently explained all the relevant details, and she especially helped us handle a small medical incident calmly and professionally. During check-out, Rocio made a great effort to find a taxi for us, as the village is so small that available taxi drivers were rare.
Breakfast starts at 7 am. When we informed them of our early departure times at 5:30 am for hiking and at 4:30 am for a sunrise expedition on another day, they asked about our preferences. We mentioned that some hot drinks would be appreciated. Surprisingly, they prepared hot coffee, hot water, and a variety of foods and fruits!
The hotel is relatively new, exceptionally clean, and well-maintained. It features expansive public areas, perfect for socializing with friends or other guests, particularly when outdoor activities are limited due to the frequent weather conditions in the area. The beds are comfortable, and the Twin bed size is suitable for individuals with a small or medium body size.

Very impressed! Newer, nice property and rooms. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and some spoke English. The breakfast had good variety and was delicious. The bed was comfortable, bathroom nice with good pressure & temperature. The wifi was good, & they even offered luggage storage so we could continue to explore the area without all our stuff, post-checkout. Close to shops & lots of restaurants, close to trails as well. I would recommend this place to anyone!

Hotel located at the end of the main street, avoiding noise from restaurants and bars. Service was not great, waited more than 15 minutes for check in, without apology from staff

Great little hotel, in great little town. Hotel reception could not have been more helpful. Great advice on walks, treks, buses, shops and even the weather update! Had asked for quiet room and had top floor room 34 facing onto hills. Room comfortable and warm, bed good too, which is needed after 10hour trek. Highly recommend hotel for location, comfort & hospitality. A little pricey but looks like best hotel in El Cheltin

The hotel seems to be one of the nicer ones on the Main Street. It’s conveniently located near the beginning of the hiking entrance to fitz Roy and close to many restaurants. Our top floor room had a vaulted ceiling and we experienced a cool breeze that would sneak in during the wind gusts and a lot of noise as well. At night it wasn’t a problem to sleep because the wind died down. Would stay again.
