Summary of traveller reviews

Hostel & Departamentos Kaiken in El Chalten is a cosy and clean spot, ideal for hikers. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen and hot showers after a long day. The friendly and helpful staff are always available. While a bit further from the town centre, its proximity to hiking trails is a major plus. Some find the common areas could be more comfortable.

Nice hostel with a good kitchen. Bit outside the main streets of El chalten. We had nice co guests at the time which made out stay better. Not many areas to sit and chill or socialise but has potential for more !
