    We had an amazing experience at this hidden gem in El Chalten! The kitchen and common area were great, and the entire place was clean. The staff, Jesus and his wife, were super kind and helpful. The dorms were cozy and clean, and there were also private rooms available. The atmosphere was friendly and respectful, perfect for hikers and climbers. The location was fantastic, surrounded by beautiful nature.

    Absolutely nothing! 🙌

    We had a great time at the hostel, with a very kind and helpful host, Jesus. The vibe of the place was amazing, with good music and a relaxed atmosphere. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the cleanliness of the entire hostel was on point. The showers had a good flow of hot water and the wifi worked well. We also appreciated the secure building entrance. I would highly recommend this hostel for its great value and enjoyable stay.

    My stay at Refugio Chalten was superb! The staff was friendly and incredibly helpful, making sure my family and I had everything we needed. The kitchen and bathroom were spotlessly clean. The location was convenient, just a short walk from the bus station and main street with restaurants and markets. While the rooms were a bit small, there were shelves and plugs near the bed for convenience. The kitchen was well-equipped and available for use until 11 p.m. Plus, they offered free luggage storage on the day of check-out. Definitely worth the price. I highly recommend this hostel for a budget-friendly stay in El Chalten.

    Comfortable room. Clean. Well equipped kitchen. Relaxed atmosphere. The staff was very kind and attentive. Hot water in the showers. The building door was always locked with a code, making it feel secure. Despite the minor inconveniences, overall I would recommend this hostel for a budget-friendly option in El Chalten.

    We had a fantastic stay at Refugio Chalten. The check-in process was smooth, even though we arrived late in the evening. The kitchen and bathroom were both spotless, and we appreciated the convenient shelves in the room and the plugs near the bed for charging our devices. The location was perfect, just a short 5-minute walk to the bus station and about 8-10 minutes to the main street with restaurants and markets. The kitchen was well-equipped and accessible until 11 p.m. We also loved that we could leave our luggage for free on the day of check-out. Excellent value for the price.

    It was all superb! 👍🏼

    Convenient location, close to bus station and beautiful natural surroundings. Accommodating hosts with late check-in. Clean facilities, including frequently cleaned shared bathrooms. Comfortable beds, may be too firm for some. Well-equipped kitchen, just bring your own oil and coffee.

    Hidden gem in a picturesque location, clean rooms with cozy dorms, helpful staff, and good value for money. Great communal kitchen and common area. Respectful and considerate atmosphere. Walkable distance to Laguna Torres hike.

    The hostel had a great kitchen and common area, perfect for hanging out and meeting other travelers. It was also very clean, which was a big plus. The staff were friendly and helpful, always willing to assist with any questions or concerns. The location was convenient, close to the beautiful Laguna Torres walk and other mountains.

    The noise late at night was unbearable. The common area turned into a party zone, with loud entertainment and people cooking, making it impossible to get a good night's sleep.
