Avoid using this company. They cancelled my visit in December and I have since spent 4 months trying to arrange for a refund via email. I went to their office the day after cancellation and they refused to refund me there and said they could only transfer the money into my account. Now I have left the country they just... More

We stayed in this camp the last night before leaving by catamaran. Inside the general building is a shop, also some restaurant. The place is big for many tourists, the amenities were not clean, but water was hot. You can cook below the roof, there are tables etc, you can speak with the other people. Also the view around you... More

Great location and views of the mountains. Easy access to walking treks. We were surprised that the communal kitchen did not provide any pots, pans for cooking. Only a stove was provided. Had to borrow from the other people just to boil water to make coffee/tea. Rooms were clean and well taken care of. Beds were comfy and plenty of... More

I agree with the positive comments: Attractive location, clean, helpful guys at the reception, very social bar with long happy hour called happy sour because of Pisco Sour, what you definately should try. But .. there was something very ennuying. In the morning,before the dining room opens at 8.00am - which I think is pretty late for hikers- there were... More

This is a lodge/refugio, not a luxury accomodation. Values is excellent given there are no other food outlets there. But also, food is plentyful, repeat servings is wanted. Bar is extremely helpful, will accept dollar payments and return Chilean Pesos, at official rate. Rooms have bunk beds, can be mixed gender, but are clean and comfortable. Shoes are mostly left...

It is somewhat difficult to tell on their website but you cannot get a private room with a double bed and bathroom which is what we were hoping for for the price ($95/person!!). But the lodge itself was very nice and in a great location. The rooms were clean and the communal bathrooms were in good shape. I enjoye the... More

After a very long day of hiking the W Trek, the sight of Paine Grande was amazing! We were so excited to see our home for the night. The most "hotel-like" of the spots along the trail we stayed at, it's large, with very clean rooms and nice communal showers. It was great to have couches and chairs to lounge... More

On arrival, we found another surprisingly beautiful location. Vertice have done a good job to attract relatively large numbers of discerning tourists to this classic location without compromising the feeling of wilderness. Wow what a difference from the other refugios along the full circuit! It was so nice to have a pillow for the first time in over a week!... More

The size of this place completely surprised us as we were expecting a refuge hut, not a giant hostel the size of a hotel. We found it very comfortable, especially as we looked out our window at the tents being almost blown away by the relentless wind. Our room (two bunk beds with very cozy bedding) was clean. The only... More

The accomodation was decent for a lodge, however the food was pretty aweful. Even after hiking all day, when I usually eat anything and everything, I couldn't seem to manage to eat my share of the dinner buffet (which was also vastly overpriced).
