The walls are very thin and the bathrooms are very small. Staff are great and the bar/reception area is great. 15 minutes walk to the center of town.

It’s not far to downtown, but need to walk through a roundabout (no walk way), have to be careful. Always be waken up in early morning by noise in the hallway or neighbors. Service is very good. Generally fine.

We stayed two nights at the hosteria and it was wonderful. The owners are very friendly kind and helpful. The house and the garden are very nice, only the rooms are small. But you have many space to sit outside your room with wonderful views over El Calafate and the lake. We can recommend it to everybody and would come back every time.

Cozy dining area with homey feel, comfortable couch by the fireplace for relaxation, pleasant staff. The bed coverings were thin and the room felt a little cold in the morning.

The lady owner is very kind. Besides the great breakfast and other services, we stayed on the Xmas day, she invited us and some other guests to celebrate the Xmas eve with her family and staff. There were food, wine, snacks, etc. One guest was a musician so we had music as well! I don't speak Spanish but felt completely at home. She treats her guests as family members. It was an unforgettable, unique experience for us. Highly recommend.

Fantastic stay at Hosteria Rukahue. A clean, comfortable and very friendly place run by hosts who cannot do enough for their guests.
It's about 15 minutes to walk to the main street (and uphill on the way back).
Would definitely recommend this place.

It is as a good hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. Rooms are a bit small and the showers are only 20 inches square. A bigger shower and they would be perfect.

We were only there for two nights, but found it to have many thoughtful touches and a cosy space. It's quite a walk to the restaurants and bars though, so would recommend having a car.
