Fantastic stay at Madre Tierra. Mariano is the best. Perfect location. Great service. Just a wonderful experience.

Small, clean, excellent staff, warm hospitality, home made breakfast. We felt like being at home.

Average hotel with good location. We were out right by the reception and while at dinner money was stolen out of our room’s safe. I had discussed paying for breakfast with the front desk attendant and he insisted on USD instead of pesos. I returned to my room and quickly grabbed the money and paid for the breakfast we had. When we returned later that evening it appeared that someone had “turned down” our room. Straightening the sheets and moving a blanket off the bed. A little sign from the hotel staff was placed on the corner of the bed. As we were checking out the next day we cleared out the safe to pack and found $40 USD missing. We notified the front desk and we were told there was a key to open the safe and they had cameras they would review to see if someone had snuck in and taken the key to then steal from our safe. It seems very clearly to be an inside job. We had to catch a bus early the next day and were staying in a location without wifi until now. Will be following up with the owners.

A very unique property, very nice staff with personal touch (rooms don't have numbers, they go by colors, and first names of the guests are written on the chalkboard on the door). There is a very cozy common sitting area with and even a yoga room. And by the way, breakfast is delicious.

Very charming boutique hotel a short walk from the Main Street. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was included and every day was many fresh fruits, made to order eggs and meat and a delicious variety of fresh pastries. I would definitely recommend staying here and look forward to my next visit! Thanks to everyone!

Wonderful local flavor, close to many shops and restaurants. Excellent and helpful staff.

This simple property is exactly like in the pictures. Cute, somewhat quirky, and convenient to the Main Street of El Calafate with shopping and eating within a couple of blocks. The gentleman at the front desk was particularly helpful, the woman less so. Both were friendly though.

MadreTierra is a very nice small boutique hotel, located conveniently close to many restaurants and stores in the centro (downtown) of El Calafate. We had an issue at checkin because we booked rooms that can each accommodate two adults and one child (as we had done at all other hotels for our trip, with absolutely no issues) but it turns out that only kids up to 2 years old are allowed to share a room with their parents. Our kids were old enough to sleep in a separate room and, thankfully, the hotel had one extra room available for the first night of our stay, but then we had to figure out how to split our family group between MadreTierra and a different hotel. This situation made things a little uncomfortable, so I would only recommend this place for couples (who don’t mind a very small room), not for families with kids. Other than the small size of the room, this is a very nice place. The staff and manager are very attentive and friendly, and the overall experience is very pleasant thanks to them!

Such a little gem of a property in El Calafate with welcoming hosts. Location was perfect and right off the main street of Avenida Del Libertador. The hotel has a family feeling to it and the breakfast in the mornings was great. If it's an option, I suggest paying the extra money for it. I will definitely be visiting this property again. Thank You!

Great boutique Hotel. It was charming, and the staff was lovely. Except that it didn’t have air-conditioning. Still give it a 5/5. Breakfast was great.

We loved our stay at Madre Tierra! Mariano, the owner is a hands on owner! Not only will he and his staff ensure you feel right at home and safe, he is also super knowledgeable about Calafate, and offers services to take you trekking, to the glaciers and many more adventures! Make sure to ask to reach out ahead of your stay to ask about these guided adventures. The hotel itself is also amazing! Very clean, spacious and the rooms are very comfortable. Make sure to book your stay with breakfast included, you won’t regret it! When we go back to Calafate we will make sure to stay at Madre Tierra.

We love this cozy place!!! We enjoyed the room, shower, breakfast and the great company of the staff. A little heaven in the southern tip of the world.
