Some people complain that the location isn't ideal. I beg to differ. The hostel is about a 10 minute walk away from the main street, but the beautiful openness of the area, with stunning views from every side, made this place really peaceful and nice. It's completely worth the walk into town.
The staff was very nice and helpful, and the common areas were very good. Thanks to all the staff at Marcopolo!

Run how a hostel should be with a 630am breakfast for when you have an early tour or bus to take. Impressive

Marcopolo itself is a great hostel, but DO NOT listen to them when they recommend the Burgos Hostel in El Chalten. The Burgos hostel is shack in someones backyard. For 50 pesos (which is prob the most expensive hostel in el chalten) you get only a sagging bed in a tiny room with seven other bunks. The kitchen is a camp stove. no common room, no included breakfast, no booking office. i had to wait in the rain for 2 hours before someone even ran across from the house to open the room. it wou

Very new, very clean and quite big hostel with an international crowd. A little out of town, but with very nice views on Lago Argentino.

Large, efficient, well equipped hostel. The location was excellent in terms of view of the mountains, though it was a bit of a walk into town. I don't think that especially matters in El Calafate though, which is lots of buildings scattered about randomly. It's a pleasant place to hang around in while waiting for your trek to the glacier.
