We (2 adults, 1 child) stayed in a room for 3. It was a little snug, but really plenty of room. It was clean and had really good wireless internet. The bathroom had a walk-in shower, which I like. The property overall was beautiful, with a lovely inner garden area with chairs and a hammock, and a small but comfy... More

Nice rooms, very good breakfast and most important: very warm people - Cecilia and her husband who treated us like family. We (two couples) enjoyed a wonderful stay at Amancay, which we will never forget. Highest value for money. We certainly come again when we arrive next time to Patagonia More

We really liked our hosts at Amancay, their positive attitude, warm atmosphere, great travel advice and tips. The location is perfect for enjoying downtown nights after all the glacier and countryside explorations. More

What make the difference here is the lovely owners. They were so helpful and so kind, answered all our "annoying" questions paitently, make reservation for us either to the other night at calafate (they were full booked), and also to the shuttle toward the airport. Calafate main street calls St. Martin. Their place is about 1 min walk for everything.... More

We stayed their for five nights and really enjoyed our stay. The hostel is in a quiet street, close to the main street. Rooms are clean, nice, and cozy. Breakfast is nice (try the cakes!). The family that runs the hostel is incredible: They were so nice and helpful during our stay! We felt at home immediately! More

We booked on short notice and were lucky to get a (I guess the only real) double room - spacious, with an extra bed, on the first floor with a nice view on the garden. The small garden is perfect to relax on a sunny afternoon. Free tea is available during the whole day. The owners are really friendly and... More

From the time we entered Amancay Hostal we felt like part of the family. We were immediately offered a snack and tea/coffee while our room was prepped. We received all the help we could ever want with travel arrangements, restaurant recommendations, etc... Our room was spacious, quiet and our bed was comfortable. The courtyard is a very nice touch to... More

Cecilia and family made us feel welcome and were very helpful. Bathroom was a bit small and could do with an upgrade and perhaps the mattress too! Home baked Argentinian style breakfast. More

Great place to stay, I was travelling alone and Cecilia, Marcelo and Ramiro were extremely helpful with me. I felt very safe and they cared so much about me all the time. They gave me excellent advice about what to do and helped me find a hostel in El Chalten. You leave as a friend. I am glad I met... More
