Esplendor By Wyndham El Calafate

“Great Hotel”

We spent only two nights in El Calafate and staying at Esplendor was the perfect way to get a view of the town and lake while staying within walking distance of all the main restaurants, shops, and the lake. We had an early trip to see the Perito Moreno Glacier and breakfast at the hotel was the perfect way to prepare for the long day ahead! We also had an early departure to the airport the next day (6:30am) but still had time to get breakfast in before we left. The room was beautiful - we loved the mountain aesthetic and had a direct view of the lake and mountains from our room.

We booked 4 nights directly with this hotel. They confirmed our reservation promptly. The hotel responds promptly to emails- requests and questions. Staff are pleasant and always ready to help. The service was excellent. Our check-in/out was quick and hassle free. The lobby is very spacious with lots of seating areas. Our room was spacious and clean, and everything worked well. Bed and pillows were comfortable. There is a bit of road noise, but it did not disrupt our sleep. The room has a safe but no coffee maker or hot water pot. Wi-Fi connection was good throughout the property. Bath amenities are sufficient. Breakfast is included. It is self-service. A simple start with scrambled eggs, ham/cheese, hot/cold beverages, fruits, pastries, and cereals. Enough for a good start in the morning. The hotel is about a 15-minute walk to the town center. There are sidewalks, mostly flat except the hill where the hotel is located. Overall, this is a good place to stay in El Calafate. Most tours offer pick-ups at this hotel. It's about a 20-minute drive from the airport.

“Shabby but Friendly”

All of the staff were friendly, attentive and very helpful. The hotel itself is clean but shabby. The decor isn't welcoming and the lobby is a bit grubby. The lobby furniture was dirty and stained. The location to the main town area was good but do be advised it is an uphill walk from the town. T… lisää

The location to the main town area was good but do be advised it is an uphill walk from the town. The restaurant was very good. Flavio was very attentive and friendly. Overall our experience was good but not quite what we expected for the price.

“Ok hotel. The other reviews are accurate”

The reviews are accurate other than the one outlier that says it is the best place ever ! An ok hotel. Too hot and no air con ( they did provide a fan ). Pillows lumpy . Bed comfortable. Reception nice. Bar mostly unmanned and a trauma when they find someone. Breakfast ran out of bacon. The be… lisää

The reviews are accurate other than the one outlier that says it is the best place ever ! An ok hotel. Too hot and no air con ( they did provide a fan ). Pillows lumpy . Bed comfortable. Reception nice. Bar mostly unmanned and a trauma when they find someone. Breakfast ran out of bacon. The begrudgingly made some more. Prior day was cold. At dinner we wanted a burger ( on the bar menu ) but the bar was empty and unmanned so we asked to have it in the restaurant ( which was mostly empty ). Yes fine. Next person comes along. 2 burgers please. You can only order that at the bar. Mouth dropped. They did in the end agree. It is 10 min to town which has a nice selection of restaurants. 15 min back uphill so not a quick pop out to eat out after a long excursion. It is provably the best option in town but I would prefer a lesser option closer to the centre as the walk is quite lengthy. The glacier is worth a visit.
