Felt well-cared for

They were truly wonderful and so caring when I had something come up and had to extend my stay. They made sure I got breakfast, have charger adapters you can borrow, and helped me check in early for my extension stay. Couldn’t recommend them enough and they're only a 10 minute walk to the bus stop, grocery store, etc - great location ans great breakfast!

This hotel is wonderful in all respects! Very clean, modern, and comfortable. Very nice cafe/bar area and common sitting area. Good wifi! Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. If you are an animal lover, you're in for a delight -- there is a sweet resident Dachshund and two super affectionate cats.<3

Very chill hostel that was walkable (everything in puerto natales is fairly walkable though), clean and quiet. Breakfast in Chile is not an elaborate affair but the breakfast was nice. Would definitely recommend this place to though heading to puerto natales.

Hostal Rufus is a wonderful place to stay in Puerto Natales. You won’t find kinder hosts who are friendly and helpful. Location is close to everything and the amenities were wonderful. Comfortable beds, hot water, and fantastic breakfast to start the day. Highly recommend staying here if you’re in Puerto Natales.

Excelente hostal!! El servicio, los cuartos, el staff super amable y cordial (te hacen sentir como en casa), es central y cerca a la estación de buses. El desayuno muy completo, excelente el pan de masa madre y la gran variedad de mermeladas caseras. Súper recomendado para una maravillosa estadía en Puerto Natales. Hemos estado hospedados dos veces.
