About

Hostel Buenos Aires was born from a family dream. Just a week after I was born, I arrived at this house surrounded by snow and love in El Calafate. I grew up between wooden walls that hold laughter, my first mates with my grandmother Nona, and afternoons of games in the courtyard that now functions as a kitchen for guests. In 1993, my parents opened the doors of our house to welcome travellers from all over the world, and since then, this warm house has become a refuge where stories intertwine and paths meet.

Today, although the family no longer lives in the hostel, I manage it with love from a distance, using digital tools that allow me to always be online to help you with whatever you need. Our rooms, with ceramic floors and wooden furniture, offer comfort and a family atmosphere. You can cook in the fully equipped shared kitchen. We are 300 metres from Avenida Libertador, with easy access to excursions to the imposing Perito Moreno Glacier, located 85 km away.

This was my second stay after a positive first experience, which makes this incident disappointing. I’ve been traveling for over eight months and have never experienced such treatment. I invited one friend for dinner and didn’t understand a 10:00 PM announcement due to the language barrier. Once I realized there was an issue, we cleaned up and moved to a room. Despite this, the owner shouted, accused me of being rude, and assumed I “must have understood.” Rules can be enforced respectfully
