Hostería Lupama  

Perched at the entrance to El Calafate with sweeping views of Lake Argentino, the Andes and Calafate Mountain. A short drive from the town center and about 20 minutes from El Calafate Airport; Perito Moreno Glacier sits roughly 80 km away. Close to local sights like La Aldea de los Gnomos (Gnome Village) and Laguna Nimez—perfect for a family-friendly Patagonian base.

Owner-decorated, rustic-chic rooms nod to Tehuelche crafts and local history. Choose from standard rooms or upgraded superior rooms and suites—king-size beds, carpeting, A/C, satellite TV and Wi‑Fi across the board. Superior rooms and suites add DVD players, minibars, safes and whirlpool/hot tubs; some rooms feature heated floors and true lake views for dramatic mornings.

Soak in a heated indoor pool after glacier hikes or book a massage in the wellness area. There’s a bar and poolside bar, bicycle rentals, laundry/dry cleaning, concierge and 24-hour reception. Free on-site parking and an airport shuttle are available (shuttle for a surcharge). Expect cozy common areas, tourist info and personalized service.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi throughout, luggage storage, laundry/dry cleaning and concierge services. 24-hour reception and free self-parking make arrivals and departures simple; roundtrip airport transfers available for a surcharge.

Start with a daily breakfast buffet of fresh, homemade products. On-site restaurant serves set-menu lunch and dinner, a coffee shop/cafe handles snacks, and 24-hour room service keeps late-night plans covered. Unwind at the bar or grab a drink at the poolside bar.
