Montano Boutique Suites

10/10 Excellent
"The Montano was a very nice boutique hotel with lots of little personal touches that made our stay perfect, from the handwritten note welcoming us to the nightly glasses of wine in the”living room”. Breakfast was amazing, all of the fruits were fresh and the bread, eggs and coffee and juices were of very good quality. The location was a quick walk to the city center close to shopping and restaurants. Absolutely would stay here again and recommend to anyone visiting El Calafate. "

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit El Calafate is in May, August, and September, when hotel prices could drop.

  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals to El Calafate, you may want to explore the DealsOpens in a new window and Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you're more likely to see discounted rates as your travel date approaches.

The Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you find the best options. With these strategies, you'll be well-positioned to snag a great last-minute getaway.
