The hostel is centrally located and has a very welcoming hall with nice sofas, free wi-fi and a good vibe. the double rooms are very simple, but they were warm, that was the most important thing. Breakfast was different, but nice. it wasn't very hygenic from... More

Probably one of the best hostel we have stayed in ever. Super clean bathrooms and a great comman area. But the staff is what makes it special. Gabriel and Emma go out of their way to make sure you have a great trip - including loaning us their bikes, tents and other equipment. Can't ask for more in a hostel! More

Antarctica Hostel was the 3rd and the best hostel in Ushuaia for us. Great staff (they answered a lot of my questions and order a taxi to a airport for us) and lounge area, clean room with a heater + very good breakfast. More

This hostel is in a decent location just a couple of blocks up from the end of the main street. It has a fantastic lounge area with plenty of comfortable sofas and really good wifi (especially for Ushuaia). Dorms are fine - beds are good and as mentioned elsewhere floors would be better with a carpet or something other than... More

After having spent 3 nights and days in this hostel, we have only possitive memories of this place. The absolut best part of the stay was the staff was extremly friendly and helpful. The common areas were warm with a welcomming and social atmosphere, (and the choice of music was perfect!! A nice respite from all the cumbia, house and... More

I (like many others who have reviewed this hostel) can not say enough good things about the staff. They answered all of my questions with a smile, helped me call Aerolineas Argentinas to change my flight, helped me with my bags, and were always friendly and accommodating. The free WiFi in the common area was fast (especially for this part... More

Positives: Very nice staff, pleasant common area, decent breakfast, free load of laundry with hostelworld booking, good location in town though there is a strip club across the street (but wasn't loud) Negatives: Shared shower was dirty and did not drain resulting in a disgusting pool of water to stand in, rooms have no heat, seemed expensive for what you...

Antarctica is a very nice and relaxed hostel (not hostal) with all the amenities a traveler need. We got a private room which was spacy and had a nice bed. It's not fancy but clean. Normally we prefer a private bathroom as well, but the shared bathrooms and showers were so clean, that we never thought about it. It might... More

This hostel has a great building (spacious and bright) in a central location. They give a free breakfast with fresh bread, eggs, tea and brewed coffee. Towels are free and refreshed everyday! Staff are genuin, helpful and friendly. Areas for improvement - up date the bed sheets. Weekly/daily social events for guests. More

I booked in here for 2 nights before my joining hotel for an antarctic cruise as it seemed better located and got great reviews. The hostel is located just on the eastern edge of the main shopping and restaurant strips. About a 5 minute walk (downhill) to the port area and a 25 - 30 peso taxi from the airport.... More
