Just a short stroll from the charming main avenue of El Calafate, the striking Hotel Kosten Aike offers an inviting base for your Argentine adventures. Alpine-inspired design meets modern comforts in each room, cosy enough to shelter you from the crisp mountain air.

Your Stay

The hotel’s distinctive atmosphere adds a unique element to your stay. Outside, the all-wood frame and gabled roofs make for a picturesque setting in this alpine location, while inside, the charming interior is designed by local artists. Rooms are traditional in décor to reflect the setting, with lots of wooden accents and earthy tones. In addition to extra-long beds perfect for stretching out after a long hike, rooms offer modern amenities including complimentary toiletries, heating, flat screen TV, minibar, hairdryer, and a desk. During downtime, slip into the spa’s sauna or hot tub for some well-deserved relaxation. For something a little different, try the games room for billiards, ping pong, and table football.

Dining Options

Start each morning with the buffet breakfast served in Ariskaiken Restaurant, where a warm, inviting setting complements a selection of homemade breads, fresh pastries, and regional specialities that showcase the flavours of Patagonia. After a day spent exploring the natural wonders of El Calafate and its surroundings, return to the hotel for an authentic dining experience at Kampen Steakhouse. Known for its welcoming atmosphere and true Argentine hospitality, the restaurant specialises in traditional barbecue dishes, including expertly grilled meats and stake-roasted Patagonian lamb – a regional favourite. For a more laid-back moment, visit Aura, the hotel’s stylish bar, offering a variety of coffee blends and classic cocktails, ideal for unwinding in comfort.
