Hosteria Senderos

In a town that revolves around outdoors sports like hiking and rafting, it’s nice to find the kind of hotel that is the opposite of “roughing it.” Not to say that the hotel doesn’t have rustic charm—-it has that South America meets the Alps feel—but everything here is of high quality and design. From the wood beams and floors, to the sitting room by the fireplace, everything exudes comfort. So nice after a day of over a dozen miles of hiking and climbing. We stayed over Christmas, and had a festive four course Christmas Eve dinner. The staff was ever helpful and especially delighted that we had such a lovely Christmas so far from home (Ohio). Some photos may suggest that the hotel is isolated and perched at the base of the mountains. It is solidly in town, sandwiched between other buildings on the block, but we had a little belt view of Mt Fitzroy out our bedroom window. Everything in town is in walking distance, and there are so many great places to eat and drink. A highlight of our Patagonia trip for sure!

We (two friends from NYC, early 30s) had a hard time trying to find a place to stay in Chalten due to booking our trip last minute & we are so glad that we ended up booking here! Location wise, the proximity to the bus station was perfect for us as we had a lot of bags! It’s also very close to a convenience store. The rooms are clean, comfortable and they were able to accommodate turning the room into 2 twin beds for us without hesitation! The staff provided a great recommendation for the route of our trek and booked us a taxi for the next morning. We had dinner here and it was delightful. We enjoyed having wine and chatting the other guests after dinner on the sofas. The next day we hiked Laguna de Los tres & when we got back Santiago had two glasses of wine waiting for us! Five stars all around! We would stay here again in a heartbeat!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay. The hotel is conveniently located for the bus station but is a bit of a step from the start of the Fitzroy trails. Our room was quite small and simply furnished but perfectly adequate. We ate dinner in the hotel both nights and the food and wine were good and reasonably priced. What really made our stay was the friendly atmosphere and the staff who really went out of their way to help us get the best out of our time in this fantastic place.

We had a wonderful experience at Hosterias Senderos. The place is quaint and simple, but had everything we needed during our stay. The staff were really what made the experience above and beyond. They were kind and helpful, and had excellent recommendations for our time in town. They gave us advice and helped us arrange taxis and appointments as needed. Everyone seemed to genuinely care that we had a good experience. Cannot recommend this place enough, especially for hikers.

Fabulous hotel in an amazing place. Room was small but comfortable. Great view of Mount Fitzroy from our bedroom window. Plenty of choice for breakfast and a scrummy dinner. All.of the staff were fantastic, very friendly and helpful Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Wonderful small lodge in El Chalten. Very nice staff and spotless rooms. We had a very nice view of Fitz Roy from our room. The breakfast was pleasant and fresh. The staff informative of local restaurants and the hiking trails. I would return this very nice hotel.
