Eolo

Eolo Hotel Patagonia sits on a 10,000-acre estancia in the Patagonian steppe between the town of El Calafate and the majestic Perito Moreno glacier.

The hotel has been built to ensure that wherever you are, you can take in these incredible views. Eolo is centred around a courtyard garden, a nifty bit of architecture that means guests can enjoy the great outdoors whilst being protected from the wild Patagonian winds.

There are 17 beautiful rooms characterised by pastel colours and simple lines. Nothing is overly complicated here, simplicity is key when your surroundings are so dramatic. There are no televisions in the rooms, instead guests are encouraged to curl up on one of the sofas that are placed in front of the large picture windows. Eolo was inspired by the historic estancias of the area and you’ll find antiques, maps, telescopes and lots of other traditional touches.

The food at Eolo Hotel Patagonia is a real highlight. Excellent local, seasonal produce is used to create a dynamic and exciting menu. The views that await from your dining table make the experience even sweeter.

This is an area begging to be explored, and there are plenty of activites on offer. Take time to visit the majestic Perito Moreno glacier, or Upsala, Spegazzini and Viedma glaciers. Hiking, horse riding, birdwatching and mountain biking are some of the experiences to keep you busy. At the hotel itself there is an area for relaxation with a small heated pool, dry sauna and massage room.
