Peninsula Valdés Hotels

The most luxurious option in Puerto Madryn - a small hotel of 36 rooms, decorated in simple Patagonian style, with lovely views over the Golfo Nuevo.

Cosy fireplaces, big windows and beautiful views make for a lovely base from which to explore the area. If you're feeling lazy you can simply watch the whales cruise by from your bedroom window.

The hotel is located on the edge of town, so it's a 20-minute walk or short taxi ride to the bars, restaurants and local tour operators, but arguably worth it for the views and comfort of the property.

A contemporary mid-range hotel in an excellent location in the heart of town, right on the sea front, with panoramic views of the Golfo Nuevo. It is just a few minutes' walk from the beach, and has a spa, gym and bar.

Clean and comfortable, with excellent views of the Golfo Nuevo, the Dazzler is well situated in the heart of town, right on the sea front. It has free wifi as well as a fitness centre and spa. The best rooms are on the higher floors, with balconies to allow you to fully appreciate those sunsets over the bay.

The buffet breakfasts are wonderful, including plenty of homemade produce, and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful.
