My dad and I stayed at La Estancia 3 separate times and were impressed each time. Alejandro and Carmen are fantastic hosts with lots of insider information about Torres del Paine and other hiking and traveling in the area. They helped us before our hike, and provided advice on what to do in Patagonia after we had finished the circuit.... More

Good central location. We had a private room with bathroom and it was fantastic value! Really clean, good shower, really comfortable bed and free satellite tv. The best part was the service. On arrival I realized I ha stupidly left my handbag in the taxi with my wallet containing about $400 and iPhone. The owner Alejandro called taxi companies for... More

When you arrive in autumn in Punta Arenas, you look for a warm place to stay. We found that in La Estancia. Not only the rooms are warm, the staff is very friendly and helpful. It´s located about 10 to 15 minutes walking distance from the Fernandez bus terminal and is close to the center. They have single, double and... More

The staff at this hostal was extremely helpful, allowing us to arrive late, and the owner even went and got us our bus tickets the day before we arrived so that we could get off to an early start in the morning. He even tried to help us arrange renting gear in Puerto Natales, which was amazing. The breakfast was... More

Really enjoyed our two nights at this hostel. Alex was really helpful and very friendly. We also really appreciated his flexibility with our booking (we changed it to arrive a day early and had to leave a day earlier than expected). The showers were amazingly powerful and despite being shared among a couple of rooms they were clean. The wi-fi... More

We stayed with Alejandro a couple of nights and together with the place we stayed in El Calafate, were the best hosts we encountered in our 4 week travel. He gave us the super tip of visiting Pali Aike national park and helped us renting a car (and via via checked the road conditions to the park). He also helped... More

My girlfriend and I stayed here one night on our way to Puerto Natales. The room was comfy and quite spacious. The accommodations were clean and well kept. Breakfast was quick, hot, and tasty. However, the real highlight for us was Alejandro. He went above and beyond to help us get to Puerto Natales and ultimately to Torres Del Paine.... More
