Review

A small guest house, located on the hill that overlooks the town, the Macondo House is, very much, a smaller and more intimate property than many of the others in town. Only featuring 7 rooms, some with view and some without, the guest house focuses on personal service. At a good price, it is simple but clean and well placed for those wanting to save on costs and stay in the heart of things.

A small guest house style hotel located on the way back into town, on the street that runs parallel to the main road, the Macondo is a good option for those trying to save on costs.

Each of the good sized 7 rooms is well appointed with new bathrooms (shower only) and has a comfortable, if relatively sparse feel (it has been designed in a modern style). The main areas are, again, comfortable, if relatively small. They have put out a few tables for eating, and a couple of good-sized sofas in front of the large fireplace.

While Macondo House does not have a whole host of facilities, the hotel really benefits from being just a short walk from the main restaurants etc in the town and definitely has a nice and simple feel to it. This is a superb choice as far as the rooms, service and location are concerned. We actually preferred the hotel to many of the larger, more expensive, contemporaries.

Intimate feel, good-sized rooms, great value, good location

    Arakur Ushuaia Hotel & Spa - Outside view

    Arakur Ushuaia Resort & Spa

    There is no doubt that when the Arakur Hotel was conceived, it was to ruffle the feathers of the other high end properties of the region and to try and challenge the Alpine style of the competition. The imposing granite and copper structure sits atop the hills at the edge of town, looking down... More...

    Los Cauquenes Resort & Spa

    Located at around 5 minutes drive out of the town, Los Cauquenes Resort & Spa is one of two fantastic hotels in the area. Designed along the lines of a ski chalet, using plenty of warm yellow Lenga wood in its construction, the hotel offers a great variety of food, activities and overall luxury... More...

    Las Hayas Resort Hotel

    Set up in the mountains that overlook the town, Las Hayas Resort Hotel has long been the place to stay in the Tierra del Fuego. Today, we are not so sure if it should still hold this mantle. The views from the hotel are undeniably stunning, looking out to the Beagle Channel and the town, but it is... More...

    Hotel Las Lengas - Exterior View

    Las Lengas Hotel

    A sister property to the Albatros, Las Lengas Hotel has recently had a refurbishment and so has the look and feel of a contemporary hotel as you walk in. The best feature of the hotel is the view from the dining area. The rooms are fairly simple and, in our view, could be seen as being a bit small... More...

    Cilene del Faro

    Located right at the end of the Avenida St Martin, the main street in the town, the Cilene del Faro could not be better placed for those looking to take in a bit of the local ambience. The rooms for the hotels are fairly simple inside, but on one side offer great views out to the Beagle Channel and... More...

    Hotel Albatros

    Hotel Albatros

    The Hotel Albatros is the second of the 4 star hotels in the town and so would suit those who are looking to explore a little. The main areas of this reasonable sized hotel are to a good standard, as is the restaurant, café and wine cellar at the front. The rooms, however, are in need of a bit of... More...
