Hotel del Montañés — Hotel in Pucón

After driving through the mountains from Argentina a few friends and I arrived in Pucón at night without any accommodation arrangements. We parked our rental car on the main street in the downtown area. Hostal el Montañes was the first place we checked out and it was perfect.||||After driving for many hours I would have accepted pretty much anything but this place was really comfy. The room had an overall light-wood ski chalet type of feeling with high ceilings. There was an effective space heater that kept us all toasty all night. The three separate beds (2 double 1 twin) (with very comfortable new looking mattresses - I actually had my best night of sleep here during my entire journey) really made it great. Reliable hot water in the morning was an added plus. ||||The room was on the second floor (of a building detached from the hotel reception and restaurant) overlooking the street. We visited most if not all (there's just a few) of the bars on the main drag (in easy walking distance) so street noise in the room wasn't an issue for us, but it definitely could be for the early to bed. In this case I'd ask for a quiter room facing the back. ||||We showed at at 10pm and rang the bell outside reception and it was answered quickly by a very friendly woman.

We probably could have gotten a better deal but were quite exhausted and happy to have found a good place.||||If you're looking for a quick overnight or a place to base yourself while taking some of the wonderful treks Pucón has to offer this is a great choice. It's clean, comfy and safe. (there was even secure parking but we just parked on the street). We actually had an awesome view of the volcano from our window that surprised us the next morning (having arrived...

We have spent 3 weeks traveling about Argentina and Chile, staying in memorable hotels and B&B's, usually costing a bit above $100US. Here we are at a comfy, Swiss chalet type of hotel for about $50. The rooms are clean and the staff is quite friendly. It is the winter season here (June) and it is raining cats and dogs. For that matter, horses and cows! The rain on the metal roof has a comforting sound and the bedding, many layers of quilts, reminds us of a mountain chalet. ||They provide off-street parking and a modest breakfast...

On the main street in Pucon and close to the bus station. We had a large room with a view of the volcano and a well-appointed bathroom. There is free internet and Ximena was very helpful in arranging our accommodation for the next night in Chillan. We were near the end of the Chile part of our trip and cash was short so it was disappointing to find that their credit card machine was not working. However, very good value...
