The hotel is in a good and convinient location. We had a room with a view of the lake which was lovely. The food is mediocre but they charge prices as it would be a five star restaurant. I suggest you don’t eat there. There are increíble restaurants in town. In addition the service at the restaurant is poor.

Bad Internet service and electricity issues -AC didn’t run till 1130 pm on day 1 Room service pathetic - needed to call them 2-3 times for everything such as a kettle, plates, or even for AC service We went and got it ourselves on most occasions Door won’t get locked on its own so can’t say it was safe Too much noise and music from the restaurant - we were given a room next to restaurant Basic toiletries not kept on second day The room decor and furniture and everything else was very dated They are barely a 3-star hotel; not sure why they even claim them selves to be 5-star. Expedia should not put a 5-star rating to them

High end hotel with excellent service and two nice restaurants but located in a remote area away from town. Our first room was less than ideal with a view facing a stone wall but they gave us a free upgrade to a trip,e room with a view off the lake.

The hotel is close to Lake Argentino with a nice view of the lake. The hotel has nice facilities, and the amenities are excellent. The breakfast was wonderful. Like most people we met in Argentina, the hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. It was worth every penny of the price.

Be careful of potential theft. Nice property, on the whole very nice staff. We caught maintenance trying to steal. Management took this pretty casually and had zero consideration that it ruined our day with very little in the way of offering something besides a meal.

We rented a car so can’t speak to other forms of transportation. The hotel was clean and in good repair. The staff at the restaurant very friendly. The hotel is not constructed of high quality materials but was put together well. Drinks were very expensive and on par with New York.. humm. Stayed in the one bedroom suite facing the lake. Breakfast was included and delicious. Would recommend and would stay again.

The property sits on a very scenic location with rooms facing the lake. That is the best part. However, the rooms are not maintained. Eg a broken arm rest of a chair that was just kept in place and falling shower head. Someone can be seriously hurt. The food is average. Breakfast is ways below par. The hotel staff is trained to ask for payment immediately when you place the order, not after you are served or ready to leave. It is really a cheap mannerism and very insulting for a so called high class resort. Under the guise of sustainability, they provide only a refilled bottle of water in the room, with written instructions that guest can refill in hotel lobby. Really? Heard of customer service or hospitality? And they sell plastic water bottles in the Bar for $3 each. The staff doesnt seem to like working there, and reflects in their dealing with the guests. Highly suggest some serious staff training and change in service attitude if you wish to attract clientele. You have a prime property, pls pay attention to service and dining!

La propiedad esta en una excelente localidad. Hermosa vista del lago y muy accesible a las areas turística. La propiedad está catalogada 5 estrellas sin embargo carece de muchas cosas para ser catalogada de esa categoria. Las habitaciones super sencillas sin ningún detalle de alta categoria. Lo mas importante el servicio al cliente era de categoria de hotel maximo 3 estrellas. Cuando llegamos nadie nos recibió en la entrada, no tenian personal para asisitir con las maletas ni dar una bienvenida personalizada como es de costumbre en un hotel da alta categoria. El servicio del desayuno tampoco era bueno. Muy poca atención de los empleados. En nuestro caso solo nos preguntaron el número de habitación y nunca se acercaron a ofrecer algo ni nada. Practicame era como si no hubiesen meseros para asisitir a los huéspedes. El menú demasiado limitado y de poca calidad. En resumen puedo decir qué es un hotel muy bonito pero no es un hotel 5 estrellas. Practicame entramos y salimos y nos sentimos completamente solos en el lugar durante las 2 noches que estuvimos alli. No recibimos ningún tipo de atención que nos hiciera sentir bienvenidos y que nos haga regresar al hotel en otra ocasion.
