if you go to Bariloche for the lake, HDL is great. it's on the correct side of the road so you have no obstructions what so ever. and it's just beautiful. for that reason alone, we very much enjoyed our stay. but now the details... The room was ok. bathroom was recently remodeled -good. the carpet needs to be changed -bad. there was no thermostat or control on the radiator so it was really warm, but can't complain as i'd rather be warm than cold in early spring there, and the window/door was drafty. the breakfast was pretty good. big selection of baked goods, and there was always whole fruits and some ham and cheese. not sure i would recommend dinner there as it was just ok, but it is convenient. we didn't use their pool, but it did look lovely. aside from being right on the lake, the location is good if you're ok being outside of town and comfortable with the city bus system to get around. if so, it's really quite convenient as the bus stops pretty much right in front of the hotel and the drivers all know the stop by the hotel name. would i stay here again? for the lake, yes. but is there better out there? i'm sure of it.
