The hotel is ok, kind of old. Staff was great. What I did not expect was that water from the tap was murky! I couldn’t get an answer as to why this was. It kind of scared me. I would be hesitant to stay there again.

Great service in a unique location

We stayed at Las Dunas Hotel after trekking in Torres del Paine. The building itself could use a little upkeep, but the friendly staff and attentive service make up for it. While about 7 minutes away by car or 30 minute walk along the waterfront from the town centre, is literally steps away from the shores of Lago Argentino. The majority of the rooms have a view of the lake, the islands in it and the mountains behind it. There’s also a nearby trail where once can discover the flora and fauna. The massage was also a nice post-trek service that they provide, but must be booked the day before.

Julio

Extremely expensive ($175/night) for what you get. The room had sewer smell and was not maintained properly. The balcony was nowhere close to what you see in the pictures. Room Furniture was in very poor condition. No fridge in room. No soap dish in bathroom. Breakfast was underwhelming. No covered parking.

Great views, value for money

Let's start with saying that this hotel is good value for money and the views over Lago Argentino are great. The location allows you to walk to the town center in 35 to 40 minutes, but a taxi only cost 2000 ARS. The rooms are a nice size. Ours had an extra 1 person bed, but some also have a sitting corner. Unfortunately we didn't get one of the rooms with balcony, although the strong prevailing winds probably would lessen the use. The bathroom was also a good size. Unfortunately there is no shower curtain, only a small piece of glass.The result was water all over the floor. The breakfast buffet is very good. We didn't use the restaurant in the evening. There is a bar, but you have to ask at the reception for staff to come up there. We used the laundry service, which is relatively cheap, but our clothes came back smelling as if they had been left to dry in the kitchen. We made use of the massage service, again very good value for money. Overall, we had some communication issues but we enjoyed our stay and in the end that is what counts

Que lastima del hotel por que es muy comodo y las instalaciones son limpias oero el personal es muy grosero. Desde la recepcion hasta el restaurante es incomodo no quere estar ahi por su actitud de enojo te cobran de mas si no vas con conocimiento de la moneda y aun que te avientan las cosas lastima de hotel

Es un hotel viejo y básico y en fotos se cotiza como lujoso. Lo único lindo es la vista al lago argentino. Las habitaciones son simples, todo viejo. El restaurante malísimo en desayunos y comidas, además de caro para lo que es. Lejos del centro. Hay que tomar taxi que cuesta como 8 dólares viaje sencillo o caminar 30 minutos. No recomiendo hospedarse aquí!
