It was a beautiful place- comfortable beds- great views!! Thank goodness our airport uber stopped at the main office to get the key and waited for us- cause it was a bit of drive to then get to the La Vela. But definitely worth it!! Would definitely stay there again!

Modern and very clean - without any fragrances like many of the other hotels. Room is like a small apartment w/ lots of area to relax. Small kitchenette for cooking if needed. Overall very good value. I was alone and felt safe. Very cute coffee shop next door that serves eggs, sandwiches and pastries. The only real down side is the check-in is on another street, so is the breakfast... Not convenient if your carrying lots of luggage. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Apartment was spacious, good bed and shower, adequate kitchen facilities. View of the harbor and Beagle Channel was very nice. Breakfast in the associated hotel (about 1 block away) was good, though scrambled eggs were a bit runny and lukewarm. Only major complaint is that the apartment is almost directly above a dance academy, which was pretty loud during 2 of the 3 nights we were there, even with the windows closed.

The apartment is very nice, clean and well furnished and the bed is so comfortable. We stayed at the 5th floor and we had such an amazing view from each part of the apartment. Everything was just perfect! The all staff is excellent, in particular I want to thank Angie from the reception: she has been so kind, she took care of us during all our stay ensuring everything was ok. We will for sure come back again to Departamentos La Vela. Muchas gracias por todo!

Great location and view!

Wonderful apartment with a great view, would definitely stay here again. Within a quick walk of the main streets and port. The sidewalks aren’t the best around the area so if you have a rolling suitcase be prepared for some rough patches and a small hill, but worth every bit of maneuvering.

We stayed 3 nights at LA VELA in Room 3B. This picture shown on the website is NOT of La Vela but rather it is the lobby of the Alto Aldino hotel around the corner (this is where you check-in and check-out, and where you have breakfast if you have paid for this option). Our room was like an apartment with a large bed, living room, full kitchen with all utensils & dishes etc. The bathroom was very small (zero counter space for toiletries) but functional and clean. The view from this room was fantastic and looked out to the harbour with water views. The room had good A/C, wifi, in-room safe, and an elevator. Getting from the Alto Andino to the La Vela is very inconvenient with a steep hill upward (it was hell dragging our luggage when we checked-in). To get to breakfast every morning, we discovered the staircase (bright yellow, if you turned right as you exit the La Vela) and we used this daily. There are lots of stairs and this could be problematic if you are older or have mobility issues - in that case please stay at the Alto Andino. The breakfast on the top floor of the Alto Andino was very crowded, with decent hot/cold options and a beautiful seating area with a terrace view (great spot for photos). This town is generally super hilly so be prepared to walk up and down steep hills. Once you get down to the main harbour area, then it is flat. Lots to see and a myriad of restaurants. TIP: Remember to get to the Tourist Center and get your passport stamped.

We had an excellent stay at La Vela. The apartment was clean and well-appointed, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We were welcomed with a bottle of local wine, which was a special touch that we really appreciated. Breakfast was delicious, with options for every taste and the staff were kind and friendly. The area where the building is located feels very safe and is close to all of the tourist attractions. I highly recommend La Vela as a place to stay when visiting Ushuaia. It’s very deserving of being classed as an Expedia VIP property.

Great place. Clean, great location, spacious. The location is in a busy street so it is a little loud, but I was so tired every day that I was able to sleep throughout the night. The kitchen was a great idea because most coffee shops open around 9 and the tours usually pick you up around 8. Highly recommended to stay a few days in Ushuaia!

It was a great hotel location is very convenient. Walking distance to port and restaurants. Yes the check-in and breakfast are done in another hotel you have to walk around the block is no shortcut do not try to skimp is not going to help. Personally I did not have a problem with this. The breakfast is perfect cannot ask for better. The rooms are bright clean with all you need to cook if this is what you want coffe tea salt peper. The personal is very helpful we arrived earlier and they had a room to leave our luggage's and the check-in was a breeze.

Comfortable Digs

A sweet smallish boutique type hotel in a great location. Easy to walk to the heart of town and restaurants. The staff is excellent, so friendly and helpful. Breakfast is adequate and very predictable. We stayed in one of the apartments. Comfortable but not facncy space. The bathroom was a tight space and both the sink and shower faucets were funky, fluctuating between extremely hot and cold water. If you are not looking for a five star hotel experience this hotel may be well-suited for you.

It's an Option

The hotel is vary cute and charming. We stayed in the adjacent apartments that were around the corner but part of the property. As a result we felt a bit disconnected from the main property having to go outside and walk around the block for breakfast or to interact with their very helpful staff. Our apartment was adequately comfortable with minimal attention to decor. The hot water in the bathroom varied unpredictably from burning hot to cool. On the plus side, it's located in a very walkable area making it easy to access restaurants, shopping and sites.
