La Posada Hotel  

Perched by the ocean in Puerto Madryn, steps from the Peninsula Valdés Biosphere Reserve and a short walk to Puerto Madryn Beach. Minutes from Proyecto Iris, EcoCentro, El Indio Statue and the Centro de Interpretacion de Gales — perfect for wildlife and shore-side explorers.

This Art Deco spot has around 30 air-conditioned rooms with LCD TVs and private bathrooms (showers or shower/tub combos), plus complimentary toiletries and bidets. Rooms include safes, desks, phones and daily housekeeping. Expect a relaxed, slightly retro vibe with a communal living room and a garden to unwind in — wake up to sea-breeze mornings.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool, keep fit in the gym, or rent bicycles to explore the coast. On-site touches include a solarium, massage room, library, barbecue grills and concierge services. Free self-parking and a 24-hour front desk keep logistics simple, and a roundtrip airport shuttle is available for a surcharge.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property, 24-hour front desk, safe-deposit box and laundry/dry-cleaning services. Free self-parking and airport shuttle service help with arrival and departures.

Grab coffee or snacks at the café, sit down for local-cuisine meals in the restaurant, or unwind with a drink at the bar/lounge. A complimentary local-style breakfast is served daily from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM, and limited room service is available.
