Hosteria y Restaurante America
Central rooms with a spider crab restaurant downstairs
About this hotel
Positioned in the heart of Ushuaia, this inn keeps things straightforward: comfortable rooms with full en suite bathrooms and TVs, some carrying views over the Beagle Channel visible from the upper floors. The restaurant is the standout feature, well known locally for its spider crab dish alongside a broader international menu, and a buffet breakfast is served daily to start the morning before excursions begin. Free private parking is a genuine convenience in a downtown setting where street parking runs scarce, and the ten-minute drive from Ushuaia International Airport keeps arrival logistics simple for a first or last night in town before a flight home or an Antarctica departure from the local port itself.

- Free parking
- Airport proximity
Our take
This suits travellers who want a central, no-frills base with a genuinely good restaurant attached, particularly seafood fans curious about the local spider crab. Couples and solo travellers on a short stay benefit most from the location. Anyone wanting a hillside channel view or spa facilities should look elsewhere, since this property keeps its focus on the downtown basics done well.
- Order the spider crab at the restaurant even if not staying overnight, since it draws diners from across Ushuaia.
- Request a channel-view room specifically when booking, since not every room carries the outlook.
- Use the free parking if arriving with a rental car, since downtown street parking is genuinely limited.

Why guests love itTravellers staying here find the spider crab dish alone worth the reservation, and the central location meant every downtown errand was a short walk rather than a taxi ride. The free parking saved real hassle after picking up a rental car at the airport. Rooms are simple rather than styled, but the restaurant and the location did the heavy lifting for a short, practical stay.
