The boutique hotel Destino Sur Hotel & Spa is tucked away on a peaceful side street in El Chaltén, just a few minutes’ walk from the town’s main street and close to the starting point of some of the region’s most spectacular hiking trails. The hotel beautifully blends Patagonia’s rugged wilderness with warmth, comfort, and relaxation.

The rooms are decorated in a charming Patagonian lodge style, featuring wooden furnishings, comfortable beds, and large windows that allow you to take in the stunning views of the mountains and surrounding landscape. All rooms offer free Wi-Fi, a TV, a minibar, and a safety box. After an active day outdoors, you can treat yourself in the hotel’s spa area, which includes a heated indoor pool, jacuzzi, sauna, and massage treatments. There is also a small fitness room available for you to use during your stay.

The hotel restaurant, Destino Resto, serves delicious dishes prepared with fresh local ingredients at the heart of the menu, inspired by traditional Patagonian cuisine. Each morning, a varied breakfast buffet awaits, with freshly baked bread, fruit, yoghurt, eggs, and other Argentine specialities – the perfect start to your day before heading out to explore Patagonia’s magnificent natural landscapes. In the evening, return to the restaurant for a flavourful dinner or round off the day in the hotel’s cosy café and bar, where coffee, local beers, Argentine wines, and classic cocktails are served in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.

The hotel’s location makes it easy to experience the very best that El Chaltén has to offer. Several of the area’s most famous hiking trails begin nearby, including the routes to Laguna de los Tres, Fitz Roy, and Laguna Capri, while the charming main street with its cafés and restaurants is just a few minutes’ walk from the hotel.
