The modern Esplendor El Calafate features a striking interior design. Look forward to individually furnished, en-suite rooms with relaxing colour schemes, elegant flat-screen TVs, and some with DVD players.

Very cool hotel, recommend to visit!!! Unreal beautiful lobby, pleasing to the eye. The standard room with mountain view inspires with its authenticity. The hotel is designer! Everything is thought out to the smallest detail. Even the handles on the doors! The staff are very friendly and helpful. I left my bag in the lobby, they realized it was me and gave it back to me) Breakfast is the usual, as in many Argentinian hotels. Also, we ordered dinner at the hotel restaurant, the chef is awesome! Very tasty restaurant! If you eat the restaurant, definitely try the ravioli! I highly recommend this hotel
