We chose this hotel mainly because of the good Tripadvisor reviews. First the good things: The rooms are spacious, very clean, all seem to have views of the lake. Now for not so good: The hotel is much too far away from town and is not walking distance and the hotel does not provide a shuttle. The taxi costs about... More

This cute little place was such a Jen. After reading the reviews I did not think it was going to be that charming. It feels like a cozy little lodge with very clean bathrooms. The staff was extremely friendly and the food was excellent for breakfast or dinner. One of the best parts is all the tour buses pick you... More

This small hotel is the best we have stayed in so far on our three month trip. The rooms are large and very clean & modern and all the staff are so friendly and helpful. The staff bent over backwards to help with a problem we had booking a car. The views from all the rooms are over the lake.... More

We received a very warm welcome here and the staff were all extremely helpful, going out of their way to accommodate us on tours and airline bookings.The room was very confortable and spacious with a fabulous view across the lake. Town is three kms away but taxis are easily called and are not expensive. We will come back!

We stayed 3 nights at this hotel. Our room was spacious & very clean. Good value for money. Breakfast was excellent & we had a lot of choice. The lake view from the hotel was beautiful, which was a good substitute for the fact that the hotel wasn't situated in the town center. Hotel staff was very friendly & spoke... More

“Poor service for a hotel with illusions of grandeur”...totally agree with this previous review. A very cold place at night, with not heat at all...the heating system did not work and we requested two extra blankets because we were unable to sleep, bugs in the bath tub and mushrooms growing from the wall and ceiling of a room.

We booked into this hotel based on the many reviews we read. Little that we knew the hotel is 3 miles from the center of the town and very little in between. If you want to walk you will find thrown okay garbage on the side of the road, empty lots, sewer being discarded onto the street pavement and stray... More

We stayed in total 4 nights at this Hosteria. The rooms are spacious and offer suffiicient opportunity for relaxing. We especially enjoyed the quality of the restaurant. Out of the 4 nights, we chose 3 nights to eat at the own restaurant. The quality amazed us. The price is lower than the restaurants downtime, so another reason to eat here.... More

A little walk outside of the town centre, but with nice views, we stayed two nights at Hosteria los Hielos. Because we were on the outskirts of town, we were one of the lasts to be picked up for our trip to the glaciers. fantastic, as this meant sleeping a bit longer than those who were down town! the restaurant...
