Galileo Boutique Hotel

The hotel was a great proximity to the ski resort, about a 5-10 minute walk. Im so glad we ended up staying walking distance to the mountain because traffic leaving the mountain from around 4-6 pm is a nightmare. The staff was accommodating, friendly, and helpful for any questions we had. Breakfast was delivered to the room every morning which consisted of coffee, juice, an assortment of pastries and spreads along with meats, cheeses, and eggs upon request. The rooms were clean and made up daily. They provide wood and matches for you to light a fire each night, as well as a jacuzzi tub. Some cons were the room is a bit dated and lacked outlets. Something I always see in more modern rooms are a usb to charge phones next to the bed on the nightstands or in the lamps, which is especially helpful if you are not from the country. This room lacked that so we had to charge our phones and devices away from the bed over night and share an adapter. The bathroom is also lacking counter space. The sink takes up the entire counter, so there is no room to put anything on the counter while getting ready. Finally, the water pressure is extremely temperamental, you have to have it exact to have comfortable water temperature. But what really knocked this visit out of the water was the observatory they have at the top of the hotel. They have an astronomer come to the hotel every couple days to do a 30 minute tour looking at the constellations. We ended up getting an hour time slot looking at all the stars and moon/ which is included in your stay. It was such a cool experience!

Let's put this review in perspective: We were a group of 4 who planned a ski trip to Cerro Catedral on relatively short notice (about 2 months). By the time we made reservations there were very few choices available in Cerro Catedral. WE ended up reserving a 4 bedroom apt that was way too big for us and way too expensive because it was the only thing available at this hotel. So, the apt was very spacious and comfy. It had all the amenities you may need, except for Wi-fi which was terrible and apparently that is the normal at Cerro Catedral. We had several issues with the apt, but, after reporting the issues, they were corrected very quickly. The staff here was very friendly and accommodating. Because of the staff and the kitchen I gave them 4 stars instead of 3. They have a restaurant on site for in-room dining only. We were surprised that a small hotel like this had a kitchen for their gusts. And it turned out to be a really good kitchen. All the meals that we ordered were very good. Plus: Location. If you are debating whether to stay at the village or down the mountain, don't debate anymore. Staying at the village is a huge advantage. Traffic into and out of the resort can be really bad. Friendly staff Hotel kitchen for in room dining Spacious apartments Minuses The rooms are a little outdated and in need of renovations. The biggest minus for us was the price. We ended up paying $1,100 per night for our apt. You may want to argue that for a 4 bedroom apt at a ski resort this is actually cheap, but we found the price way too high for Argentinian standards.

We chose a room with a jacuzzi and a fireplace and had the most relaxing holiday. The location was great as it was close to Cerro Cathedral, and was easy to go anywhere from there (we rent a car to explore the Patagonia area).

Excelente hotel, la habitación fue muy cómoda, con vista al cerro, calefacción por losa radiante y ambientes muy amplios. La atención del personal fue excelente. Esta muy bien ubicado (solo a metros del acceso a la base). La cocina está totalmente equipada y tiene hogar a leña.

Equipe atenciosa e simpática, quarto bem confortável, roupa de cama e banho de qualidade, café da manhã servido no quarto, sugiro que acrescentem porção de cereal. Quarto bem quentinho, aconchegante, com banheira e lareira. Com certeza um ótimo lugar para se hospedar.
