Review

The Hotel Peninsula Valdes is a fairly simple but clean and tidy hotel located in the heart of down town Puerto Madryn and so, if you are after a bit of nightlife or just fancy getting to know the town a little, then it is a good choice. The rooms themselves are basic affairs, as is the restaurant but the service is good and, in the rooms on the higher floors, the views are spectacular.

For those that are heading to the Peninsular Valdes for a few nights from June to September, then the Hotel Peninsula Valdes is a good pick. Located centrally it gives good access to the sweeping bay in front and all of the restaurants and bars of the town, which, in season, come alive with visitors.

The hotel Peninsula Valdes is a simple affair with only the slightest of touches of colour that adds to the ambience. The rooms are also in a similar vein and are, on the whole, utilitarian, with all of the amenities that you would expect in a four star hotel such as small bath/shower, tvs and balconies looking out over the bay. As this review belies, we are not head over heals for the place, but it is probably the best option in the town and offers very good value for money…the higher in the building the better.

Great views, good location, good value, attentive service

Lacks comfortable communal area, lacking ambience

    Estancia Rincon Chico

    Our preferred estancia on the Peninsular, the Estancia Rincon Chico is a great place to get a feel for what it is all about, coming to this area of the world. The focus here is on privacy and intimate views of the wildlife of this beautiful area. Making use of their private beach and large property... More...

    Estancia La Elvira

    Estancia La Elvira

    Small and well-located, Estancia La Elvira is a really great example of a traditional, working farm and, located close to some of the best orca hunting areas, it offers a great opportunity to see plenty of good wildlife. The Estancia itself is fairly simple inside (as are most of the working... More...

    Faro Punta Delgada - Wildlife

    Faro Punta Delgada

    The largest of the three estancias based on the Peninsular Valdes, the Faro Punta Delgada, an ex lighthouse base and training ground for the army, still works, more or less as a sheep farm. The restaurant itself is fairly large and has good views out across the plains. Moreover, due to their... More...

    The Rayentray Hotel

    The Rayentray Hotel

    Dominating the skyline of Puerto Madryn, the Rayentray Hotel is the “only 5 star hotel” that is on offer and, on paper, promises a lot. Completed in 2008 to a fanfare of fireworks, the hotel has never really gotten off the ground with the pool, spa and one or two other things to be built. The rooms... More...

    Solar de la Costa - Bedroom

    Solar de la Costa

    A small and friendly hotel on the way out of town, the Solar de la Costa is a budget option in the area. Established for quite a few years now, we would suggest that the interiors could do with a bit of a facelift, but it is well positioned and just back from the front which allows for good views...

    The Tolosa Hotel - Restaurant

    The Tolosa Hotel

    Located in the centre of town, about 3 blocks back from the waterfront, the Tolosa Hotel is a fairly non descript in our opinion. The rooms are fine and it is definitely worth opting for the Superiors rather than the Standard, but they are very unexciting with the colour palette basically being... More...
