Introduction

The Singular hotel is one of the most amazing thought-up hotel concepts ever conceived. It has successfully pulled of a mix of history, modernity, luxury, and wonder. This is truly one of those places where you come to stay and get a bonus to your holiday experience.

About

The Singular Hotel at Puerto Natales, Patagonia is, on the outside, “nothing special”. When pulling up to the reception all there is to see is a rather old looking, wooden Patagonian barn. However, upon entry into “this barn” the clues to what is to come begin to unravel.

We are not going to describe it all here, because you need to be able to experience the check-in yourself otherwise the “wow” factor may be spoilt.

The main building that houses the hotel used to be the refrigeration plant for sheep that were exported around the World from this small port. It was the British who came to Patagonia over 100 years ago who started sheep farming. They built Estancias, prefabricated in sections back in England, as well as large machine parts that were then shipped to Patagonia and then reassembled here.

The hotel owners have very intelligently maintained the building that houses the refrigeration plant machinery whereupon one can still smell the grease and see massive mechanical wheels and pistons with the badge “Built in Sheffield” on the side.

In another part of the “barn” is the restaurant and bar. Again, we do not wish to spoil the effect, but we can say that the food is exceptional and the style and ambience is more like something you would expect to find in New York rather than Patagonia.

The accommodation sector is incredibly modern. Upon arriving to the hallway that connect the rooms the look is more like that of being on a futuristic film set that at a hotel. The rooms are incredibly spacious with luxury, modern, en-suite bathrooms with baths and separate showers. Each room has a floor to ceiling horizontal window enable a fine, direct and unobstructed view out to the beautiful Patagonian landscape.

The Spa is on a lower floor. It is modern and fully equipped to the levels expected of a luxury hotel Spa. Again, the floor to ceiling windows also allow for perfect views to the outside world whilst relaxing in the pool or sun loungers.
