I am only planning to spend one night in Ushuaia, prior to departing on my Antartica trip. The tour company is using Hotel Ushuaia (a 3 star booking at $128).

My TA in Argentina can get me the Hotel Ushuaia for $80, but for the price range is recommending another hotel, Rosa de los Vientos ($75). Does anyone know either of these hotels, or can you recommend another?

She advised that the Hotel Ushuaia is not as close to town and is up a hill - although the reviews I have read are positive and I assume other people on my boat will be there (it also seems to be a pretty big hotel). The other hotel is all of 4 rooms and seems a little bit closer to town, but not much. Any thoughts?

I will be in Ushuaia in about 2 weeks and need to make my hotel arrangements. Could you give me name of your TA? Also, did you already stay in the hotel? I'm looking for a centrally located hotel.

Thanks
Susan

I will be in Ushuaia Jan 13 for 4 nights and will be staying at the Albatros Hotel which is right on the water. I booked our hotel via email (VERY time consuming!) but they gave me the name of a travel agency recommended by the hotel for tours, etc.
This is the email of the agent I dealt with. Her name is Paula. She may be able to help you, Susan.

We will be in Ushuaia for one night in February. Both the Albatross and the Canal Beagle were recommended, the Albatross a bit more highly, but it's full the night we are there (we were told it's a modern hotel right downtown with fairly large, comfortable rooms -- we were qouted $155 per night for a double. The Canal Beagle (we are paying $105 for a double room for one night which, we were told were simple, but clean and comfortable) is also right downtown in a great location with a restaurant that overlooks the port.

see Cabañas del Beagle.
a different way to enjoy nature and peace.
"something incredible and unique" according to the people who stayed there.
have never been there, though i have recommended it to many people. all of them best references about the place.
not cheap though
