WHY WE LIKE THIS HOTEL

High above Ushuaia and an ideal setting for exploring both the city and nearby trailheads, Arakur boasts picturesque panoramic views across the surrounding mountains and Beagle Channel. Sitting on a natural promontory againast the backdrop of the jagged Cerro Alarken, Arakur is an eye-catching contemporary hotel of glass and stone with spacious stylish interiors and floor-to ceiling windows to capture the light and magnificent landscapes. The guest-rooms offer every modern comfort with ocean or mountain views while the in-house La Cravia Restaurant delivers delicious regional flavours – spider crab, lamb and black hake as well as typical argentine asado barbeques. Few hotels in Ushuaia have a spa let alone the likes of Arakur’s with 300m² of indoor/outdoor pools and tubs with water sourced directly from the rainfall and nearby glacier. The Arakur is the first luxury contemporary hotel in Ushuaia and an ideal base from which to explore the Tierra del Fuego or for an overnight stay prior to a cruise.

Other Ushuaia Hotels

Alto Andino Hotel$$$$

The Alto Andino is an excellent and affordable base for short stays in Ushuaia particularly around a cruise. The rooms are modern and comfortable and the price alone is worth access to the rooftop bar terrace and lookout which offers sweeping panoramic views of the Beagle Channel and surrounding mountains.
