Hotel Picos del Sur offers a fairly convenient location, just a 10-minute walk from the main street of El Calafate. The rooms are clean, though the amenities are somewhat below average, and the bed is decent for a comfortable night’s rest. Breakfast is an average continental selection, enough to start the day. There’s a small sit-up bar and a restaurant on-site, though the menu is quite limited. Check-out is at 10 a.m. The property also features a nice patio area with a great view over the grounds. Staff are friendly, and overall the hotel offers pretty good value for the price.

Rather dated hotel, basic room, good views, parking available and a short walk to the town. Not the best hotel, seemed to be popular with tour groups. Breakfast ok but not a great variety of healthy options.

This property was very clean and had friendly staff. The bed was comfortable. It was walking distance from restaurants and shops. Only negative, the heat in the hallway so hot it made our room hot. We slept with an open window each night.

Terrible stay

The service was terrible. It took us more than 30 minutes to check-in due to inefficient system and personnel. The check out time was 10am and when we requested for 11am check out they said it was not possible and the way they replied to our request was terrible. Also, please don't try their happy hour menu. That was the worst burger that I ever had.
