“Claims to be 5 star, but is really only in local comparison...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 August 2009

We (couple in the early thirties + 2 year old daughter) stayed in the hotel for 4 nights. The hotel is really new, just open for a year or so. They say that in the future they'll have a Spa, pool, etc. So far it doesn't exist and they tell you clearly when you book on the phone and if you ask them.

The rooms are quite big, all of them equipped with LCD-TVs. We had two rooms that were connected directly through a door. Price was really low on comparison to international standards (it was lowest possible season too... there might have been like 10 other guests in the hotel...). What disappoints regarding the rooms is the bathrooms. They are really small compared to the rest of the room and although clean and new definitely not 5-star-standard.

Included in the room price was the breakfast that is offered from 06h to 10h in the hotel’s restaurant in form of a buffet. Big disappointment!!! There wasn’t any fresh stuff on the buffet. No eggs, no ham, no sausages… non of the usual stuff you would expect. They had some croissants that were really old, at least several days!!! Well, this might change in high season when they see a bigger turnover on the breakfast buffet but for a 5 star it was not acceptable!
Service at the reception lacked attitude… we got the feeling they felt something better because of working in a 5 star hotel. I’ve been served better in lower category hotels.
All in all, when you like to have new, well equipped rooms and you don’t care too much about breakfast I guess there’s still nothing better in Puerto Madryn.

“A new hotel trying to make its mark on the Puerto Madryn tourist trade”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 April 2009

person found this review helpful

This is a brand new hotel - just finished. Consequently the landscaping leaves something to be desired. Pedestrian access is across a stony and muddy path which turns to a sea of slime in heavy rain. The hotel is at the far southern end of town so not close to shops or retaurants. It is opposite the beach but we were told by locals that families with children would do better to go to the north end of the beach - better sand and fewer hazards. The town is developing rapidly so possibly some of these inconveniences will disappear in time.
Inside, the hotel has a bright and attractive reception area; the rooms are good sized, well finished and comfortably appointed with private balconies overlooking the sea. The staff try very hard to please and will go out of their way to accommodate all requests. Free internet access is available via pcs located just off reception. A feature of the hotel is the casino which attracts large numbers of locals, especially at weekends. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

“A good option when visiting Penninsula Valdes”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 December 2008

person found this review helpful

Apparently this hotel has been 15 years in the making. It's finally finished and, though it's still working the kinks out, offers a good base when exploring the area. Puerto Madryn is a low-key resort town perhaps best known for its proximity to Valdes and Punto Tombo wildlife areas. The hotel is well-decorated and the rooms quite spacious and comfortable. It looks like an upscale hotel--though I wouldn't call it a resort because it does lack amenities like a pool or spa. It's a bit out of the way for the nightlife scene in Puerto Madryn (though the Hotel Territorial is even further) Most restuarants are at least a 20 minute walk. It sits just across the road from the beach and the views from the balconies are expansive. Our biggest complaint was that the a/c was not working during our visit and it took a couple of queries to the front desk to determine that it applied to the entire hotel. That meant we had to sleep with the balcony door open all three nights. This was a big negative--otherwise I would have rated it higher. Breakfast was included in the price. We had adjoining rooms and one had a king bed while the other had a double and a twin (a nice option for families). There's a restuarant and a casino on the premisis, but I didn't utilize either.

  • Liked — Beds were comfy and the view was lovely
  • Disliked — no a/c and the daytime temps we over 80
