Tierra Tehuelche

Located in the Barrio Aeropuerto Viejo of El Calafate, Tierra Tehuelche operates as a complex that combines the structure of a hostería with the autonomy of apart units. The property sits on a lot surrounded by gardens, where the Patagonian landscape takes centre stage through views of Lago Argentino and the Andes cordillera. Its position suits travellers who need mobility: it is just 300 metres from the bus terminal, making transfers to destinations such as El Chaltén straightforward, while remaining a walkable 800 metres from the city’s commercial centre.

Layout and accommodation

The complex is organised across two adjacent buildings with different offerings depending on the type of stay. The main building houses the hostería, which has 12 standard and superior double rooms spread over two floors. These units are equipped with high-quality mattresses, cable television and a safe; they also have a private bathroom with an anteroom, a hairdryer and basic toiletries.

The second building is dedicated to the apart units, designed for a stay with greater independence. These superior units are available in double, triple and quadruple configurations. Unlike the hostería rooms, these spaces include a dining area and a kitchen equipped with a microwave, mini-fridge, electric kettle and full tableware.

Rest and setting

The offering at Tierra Tehuelche centres on making the most of the natural surroundings. A distinctive feature is that the room windows are oriented to allow views of the lake and mountain landscape. The breakfast area serves as a meeting point where the architecture allows guests to take in the sunrises and sunsets of the area. It is an accommodation that works well both for travellers seeking the comfort of a hostería service and for groups or families who prefer the practicality of their own kitchen in a quiet setting.
