When planning my trip to Torres del Paine, I read all of the reviews posted here. I made a mental note to stay away from this hotel based on these reviews. However, they happened to be the only hotel that had availabiltiy and bothered to respond to my inquiries.
My travelling companion and I were booked into a "Superior" room. It was basic, but a decent size and it had a beautiful view. The room was very clean and the bathroom, while small, was clean, tiled and perfectly acceptable. The hotel staff that we dealt with were fairly friendly, but not overly gracious. However, I will definitely say that they were much nicer to deal with than I expected. The breakfast (included in the $260.00 per night rate) was nothing impressived, but dinner was actually pretty tasty. Dinner cost each of us about $25.00USD per night.
Overall, I would recommend this hotel to others and I would stay here again. I do highly recommend having your own rental vehicle while in the park so that you do not have to deal with the hotel's transportation services (reported to be expensive) or the park busses. Don't come here expecting the Hyatt Regency for the price you will pay, but considering the limited number of choices in this remote area, it was a pleasant experience for us.
