Casa Los Sauces is a newly opened hotel situated in El Calafate, a town that has swelled from tourism in recent years due to its proximity to the world-renowned Perito Moreno glacier. Designed by a local architect, it was inspired by the traditional Patagonian estancia. Among four hectares stand three separate guesthouses, with six suites in each, plus another casa for the restaurant, and another for the feng-shui respecting spa. Casa Los Sauces is a boutique hotel which recreates the hospitable and refined spirit of the big farms of the beginning of the last century, is undoubtedly the best way to know, love and discover an area of wonderful beautiful nature; Southern Patagonia. The Casa Los Sauces follows the architectural style typical of the region, which combines native features with european influences. The interior offers a cozy climate.
A luxury hotel near the glaciers of Patagonia. This brand-new boutique hotel has thirty eight guestrooms distributed in three independent and separate buildings, providing tranquillity, comfort and privacy. The location is very special, on four hectares full of willowtrees, by the side of Calafate Stream and facing Redonda Bay of the Argentino Lake. Los Sauces’ style recreates the typical settlements of the Patagonian farms from the beginning of the last century, with a pleasing mix of European style and Patagonian elements. The style is simple but full of character, enhanced by an important collection of works by contemporary Argentine artists.
Each suite follows a different, relatively subtle theme, with all the design features and furniture having been selected by Cristina. Solid, antique dressers stand alongside more idiosyncratic additions, such as a funky chandelier that could have come straight out of Buenos Aires' hipper-than-thou Palermo district ,and a table made from the recycled fence posts of a Patagonian sheep farm.
