Very helpful staff! Best value for you money and the restaurant in the hostel is great! Kitchen and showers were also good. You can leave your bags in a room while you hike after you check out.

A Shoutout to the Volunteer Dream Team Let me start by saying, this place is an absolute gem—not just because it’s a breezy five-minute stroll from the bus station, but because of the volunteer staff who run the show like pros (while secretly moonlighting as superheroes). Considering they’re volunteers, they’re doing a fantastic job. Actually, scratch that—they’re smashing it. Zoe, for instance, is a medialuna wizard. Her creations are so good they deserve their own fan club. Then there’s Marcos, the hiking guide extraordinaire, who makes scaling mountains sound like a casual afternoon stroll (even when your legs disagree). Paula, the English teacher, is a legend—she didn’t just teach; she often translated for me. And how could I forget the Spanish couple? Luis, affectionately nicknamed “the French guy” (don’t ask), made an onion soup so delicious it should have its own Michelin star. Maca, his lovely partner, brought warmth and good vibes wherever she went. Last but certainly not least, there’s Kevin, the manager. This guy is the ultimate fixer—got a problem? Kevin’s your man. And if it involves more than hand gestures, his partner Paula will swoop in to translate. Together, they run the hostel like a well-oiled machine, keeping everything sparkling clean and utterly welcoming. So, hats off to this incredible team for making my stay not just pleasant but downright memorable. If you’re lucky enough to stay here, bring your appetite for medialunas and your sense of humor—you’re in for a treat! ❤️

Fantastic hostel close to town. The rooms very very comfortable, with private bathrooms inside shared-rooms. Breakfast included in the price was VERY BASIC, it could definitely be improved, but it’s always nice to have something at the start of the day. The staff was very nice, you have beautiful view from the window and the common spaces are very clean, comfortable and overall super pleasant. I definitely recommend.

Gaby's a legend! Super accomodating, I was climbing various random nights as weather permitted, messaged me to ask if I needed a room for the next night and made it so I could stay in the same room. Best hostel in El Chalten!!!
