Alto Calafate Hotel (standard category room)
Alto Calafate hotel is in a pristine scenic location
Situated on a hill, this hotel is surrounded by gardens and the magnificent scenery of Argentino Lake and the Calafate Hill. It has a spa and an indoor pool with a lake view (it’s one of the very few hotels in El Calafate which have a pool).
The hotel is 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) away from downtown but offers a free shuttle service to and from downtown for its guests (hours of operation and frequency vary, subject to the time of the year).
In this hotel you’ll enjoy the advantage of relaxing at a pristine scenic location while being close to the downtown area (at most a 10-minute ride). The hotel has an exclusive deck where you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the natural Patagonic scenery with panoramic views of the Nimez lagoon (a natural reserve of birds) and the Argentino Lake.
Although from most of the public spaces in the hotel you’ll enjoy views of the lake, only few of the rooms have a direct view of the lake, while most have a view to the mountains or the parking lot of the hotel (rooms are assigned at check-in).

Why have we devised our own lodging classification standards?
Argentinean hotels are often categorized using stars, but with different criteria from those used internationally. These criteria are sometimes abused or outdated and therefore they don't accurately represent neither reality nor international standards.
