Fair for the price and lovely views
Good value, warm and comfortable bed. Easy walking distance of restaurants in the town via a steep hill. Views were also lovely of the lake. Breakfast could be improved with a couple of things - maybe an alternative to very sweet sugared cereal and some nice jams / marmalades would be good. Maybe cheese/ham for those who don’t eat eggs?

Super helpful staff
Great location, with an amazing view over the lake, and just 5-10 min walk to all restaurants.
The staff was super helpful in booking tours to the glaciers and bus tickets to El Chalten.

Definitely worth the price
Nice place, very friendly staff, trying to help. The location is not far from the center but there is a steep road. It is good to lose calories after the excellent restaurants. The heating issue needs to be improved.

Fabulous stay at South B&B, El Calafate
We had a great stay at South B&B in El Calafate. The place is conveniently located close to town and with easy access to all the shops and restaurants within a short walking distance to the Main Street. The breakfast served at the hotel each morning was super fabulous. We had a great time at this hotel.

Excellent option in El Calafate
The hotel is well-located less than a 10 minute walk to the main strip but in a very quiet area just uphill. If you don't like walking uphill or downhill this may not be the place for you, but I found it very convenient. The room is clean and simple, pillows are comfortable, water is hot. The breakfast is great, it actually includes a small portion of eggs with the usual pastries and tea/coffee. The view from the breakfast room over the town and onto the lake beyond is gorgeous.

Great views nothing more
Perched on a hill with its rooms facing the lake, views are great. However, noise travel upslope and there are an awful lot of dogs around barking (more than normal in our 2 months of travel). Also very windy and difficult to have the window open. Our room on the 3rd floor was overlooking straight above the reception area, which added a level of noise. At check-in we mentioned our concerns and she assured us it would be quiet. She was plain lying. Very noisy, you can follow all conversations. Breakfast was good with fresly made eggs on demand with a basket of freshly baked small muffins and a variety of croissant and bread. Fresh fruit available too. The one downside is that both my husband and I caught an i testinal bug and we think it had to be from the ice cubes in the morning juice.

When we arrived the room was not available at the time it was supposed to be. We were then told (after we had checked in and paid) that the room we’d reserved wasn’t available. Instead of the double room, we were put in a room with two twin beds and a bunk bed. We were told there was nothing the staff could do. We tried to be understanding, but it was not worth the almost 100 USD per night to stay in what felt like a dorm room in a cheap hostel. There are plenty of other places in town that are a much better value.
