The hotel is wonderfully situated, clean, and very quiet. The best thing about the hotel are the people who work there - Suzanna at the front desk was amazingly helpful, restaurant was great. Really a great experience. More

We stayed here for 1 night on route to Torres Del Paine. We arrived at Puento Arena’s airport and our guide and driver took us to Puerto Natales which is approx 3-4 hours drive away. On route we stopped at the Seno Otway penguin colony and it was great to see all the penguins, really good fun. Afterwards we stopped... More

We stayed in the hotel for 2 nights and I have to say it was pretty average and certainly not up to the standard of most of hotels that we stayed in Argentina. The rooms seemed a bit run down and the lack of a lift was annoying when checking in with 4 bags. The internet facilities were good situated... More

Well-located hotel in Puerto Natales. We were about a block from the water and several blocks from the town center. The room was clean and quiet. Free wi-fi. More

My two daughters and I spent one night at the Charles Darwin en route to Torres del Paine. The front desk staff (Oswaldo) were efficient and helpful. The room was a good size ( 3 twin beds). The room and attached bath were very clean and neat. We found Patagonia to be very expensive making this hotel a bargain. More

I can only give you the good advice: stay away from this hotel! There are probably better options in Puerto Natales. My room was so small that I could hardly move (ok there are some rooms with more space) and the bed was quite uncomfortable. The room was very noisy and you could hear it everytime when your neighbours took... More

My wife and I stayed here for three nights in Dec. 2009. The hotel is situated within walking distance of the Navimag ferry port, but a taxi would be helpful if you arrive by coach as it's about 10/12 blocks, albeit downhill. Taxis seem to have a fixed tariff within the town of 1000 pesos, less than 2 dollars. The... More

We were looking for a nice clean hotel for about $100 with good food which we could use as a base for exploring Torres del Paine and other locations in the area. This hotel fitled the bill quite well and was surporisingle well appointed. It is not a hotel where you would want to hang out (no pool or sauna,... More

I am struggling to recognise the hotel that previous reviewers have described. The hotel was clean and the bedroom spacious. There is a lounge area on the top floor that is almost all glass with stunning views of the Sound. My husband and I had a lovely meal at a local restaurant the Afragonia which I would recommend. After the... More
