Hotel berhampiran Plaza Barrio Akawaia, Ushuaia

After travelling for nearly two days flatout without much sleep at all, we were really looking forward to a comfy bed and a good kip, which is exactly what we got when we managed to get the room to a normal temperature as both radiators in the room and bathroom were on full whack and with it being a smll basement room it held the hart really well. All good after 10 mins with windows wide open, and radiators off. We booked through an agent that we had used for our Antarctic Cruise, and although we stipulated a double bed with possibly a good view the agent did not pass on this information and so we ended up in twins in a basement room (no fault of the hotel directly). Unfortunately the staff had no other rooms available to move us into, but said they could look into it for our second (and last) night,but we didn't want the hassle of having to pack again and move everything when we were heading out early the next morning, so we kindly declined. The breakfast was included in our rate, with plenty of mainly cold foods (although some small pieces of warm hotdogs and eggs). Breakfast was on the fourth floor, and the views were spectacular (see photos). We could see the ship from the window (that was supposed to be taking us to Antarctica - separate review to follow but please beware of more recent reviews of Ocean Victory if you are thinking of booking). Next door to the breckfast room was a coffee machine and pastries available to guests anytime, which was a lovely touch. The reception didn't make us aware of this, but my partner had spotted this on someone else's review fortunately. Again, the views while you are having a coffee are amazing. Stupidly forgot to pack out converters, but reception were kind enough to borrow us one for our stay. Location is ideal, everything in Ushuaia seemed easy to stroll to, it's only a few mins to the main shopping street, and only 5 mins walk to the port. Would highly recommend this place, but ask for a view because that is a massive key feature to this lovely little place.

-Departamentos modernos, luminosos y con muy buena ubicación ya que están a una cuadra de la calle principal de Ushuaia. -Ofrecen toallas, ropa de cama y amenities en el baño que son jabón líquido, acondicionador y shampoo. También tienen secador de pelo. Además te dejan sobres de café, té, azúcar y sobres de leche en polvo. -Está equipado con lo básico como para cocinar. -La calefacción es muy buena. -Respecto al wifi una sola vez anduvo un poquito mal, pero estando de vacaciones, es lo que menos me importó. -El check in se hace en un hotel que está justo a la vuelta, donde podes dejar las valijas en guarda hasta poder ingresar. Para ingresar al departamento y al edificio, te asignan un código, por lo que te desprocupas por las llaves. -Si querés desayunar en dicho hotel, lo podés hacer con costo extra y si necesitas que limpien el departamento durante tu estadía también es con costo extra y lo podés solicitar para un día puntal, si es que no querés que te lo hagan todos los días. -El personal de recepción son muy atentos y responden a todas las dudas que tengas.

Excelente. Soy celiaca y tenían un menú apto para cada comida del día y exquisito. Excelente la ubicación, la limpieza, la comodidad y el trato del personal.volveria a ir.

Really happy with my choice. bedrooms very basic but clean and everything works. but the house is lovely with lots of guest areas to sit and enjoy. sunny balcony. really confortable place and Anna and family are great hosts. she had lots of useful local suggestions. i was meeting friends who were staying in hotels and they paid double the price and had various complaints. i would definitely stay here again. Breakfast is minimal but adequate. a 10 minute walk to the waterfront and a bit longer to get back as it’s uphill.

I hate leaving bad reviews; travelling here from the US was a long and exhausting process. I arrived at 07:30, way ahead of check in, and didn't expect a room, but maybe a place where I could sit and have coffee. Gentlemen at the desk said coffee was part of breakfast buffet, that I needed to wait until I was checked in for the next day. Really? I couldn't have coffee even though I was booked here two nights? Wow. I got checked in at 1, which was fine, but the room was uncomfortably warm. I found the thermostat and turned the heat to cool. Tried to nap (up all night traveling here), but it was too warm. And, I heard people talking like they were in my room. They were in an adjacent room - talking in normal voices - no sound barrier at all! I set the air to the coldest setting and left, returned a couple of hours later and the room was hot. I called the front desk and was told no air conditioning and to open a window. Loud construction and traffic - and the neighbors talking = no sleep again. Day 2, repeat. New neighbors talking, room still hot, loud noises out the window. The hotel also offers free WiFi, but it was slow and intermittent at best. Just terrible. I thought I would give them a pass on that since we were at the ”end of the world,” but found the restaurants I ate at had good WiFi. Asides: no water or coffee available except until 10:00. The bigger issue was water, as the guides I read claimed ”tap water in Ushuaia is not potable.” I've traveled to Africa (several times), Borneo, Thailand, Norway, S Korea, Costa Rica - every place I've stayed provided water, and most had coffee or other beverages available throughout the day as complimentary. To be fair, they provided bottled water in the rooms - but in the mini bar for a price. And breakfast? The breakfast plates they provide are the size of coffee saucers! And the first thing they took away from the breakfast bar was the coffee pot!! So - not impressed. I would not stay here again.

LOVED this hotel! Easy to walk around town. Rooms are clean and spacious. Spa amenities were great, although it was difficult to find a space to get a massage as they were fully booked. Check in was quick and easy. The breakfast was good and had a large variety of offerings (including some desserts!)

Excellent location, great service, very nice views from our junior suite, good resto, nice and healthy breakfast, very relaxing wellness, best place I can imagine for a short visit to Ushuaia! Welcome at reception was outstanding, and easy to get to the center or activities. Only small remark I could make is that when arriving the hotel looks a bit outdated from the outside, but once inside you forget this immediately, well renovated, also the wellness area fe.

PONTOS POSITIVOS: - Há vários horários de transfers do hotel para o centro e vice-versa. - O café da manhã é um dos melhores que já vi (inclusive com opções gluten free) - Academia, sauna e piscina limpas e funcionais. - O quarto é espaçoso e possui vista ou do lago ou das montanhas. - Tudo muito limpo - Pessoal muito educado e prestativo - Há restaurante no hotel com cardápio variado e preço bom.
