Cabo de Hornos is the plaza pick with breakfast settled. The hotel says every stay includes a full buffet, and Faro Lounge serves dinner off an international menu.
It also matters for air-cruise guests — Antarctica21 lists its two included nights “at the Cabo de Hornos Hotel or similar,” so you may end up here anyway.
There’s a gym and a small wellness room, not a spa. Check the room type: quadruples suit a family of four.
Book it if
- You want breakfast in the rate and the main square outside
- You’re on an Antarctica21 air-cruise and want the hotel it names
- You’re four and want one room
Look elsewhere if
- You want a pool or a sauna
- You want check-in times in writing before you land
Your night before, from here
From check-in to the gangway, using only what Cabo de Hornos publishes and our own map estimates.
Faro Lounge, the hotel restaurant: an international menu with Patagonian lamb, southern hake and king crab, plus cocktails and wine. No hours are published.
No ride to the pier is listed. Muelle Prat is about 600 m away in a straight line by our map, a short taxi with bags. Antarctica21 names this hotel, “or similar,” for its included Punta Arenas nights and runs its own group transfers.
A full buffet breakfast with à la carte options, included with every stay, per the hotel.
Muelle Prat is about 600 m away by our map, down toward the Costanera. Take a taxi with bags; on an Antarctica21 air-cruise, the line moves you.
Parking appears in the hotel’s amenity list without a price — and nothing says a car can stay while you sail.

Getting here, and on to the ship
By our map estimate Cabo de Hornos is about 18.2 km from Punta Arenas Airport in a straight line, and about 600 m from Muelle Prat. Every question mark below is a ride you book yourself.
The hotel says it’s a few minutes from the airport but lists no transfer. Antarctica21 includes the group transfer for its guests; others take a minibus or a taxi.

From PUQ without a hotel shuttle
No fare is published by the airport or an operator that we could find. Three unofficial guides put a shared van at about CLP 5,000 to 6,000 a head and a taxi at about CLP 10,000 to 13,000. There’s no direct city bus, though Bus-Sur’s Natales buses stop at the airport if you ask when you buy the ticket, per one of those guides. Antarctica21 and Quark include the group transfer from the airport on Day 1, so check your documents first. The airport page has what is and isn’t published.

Flying in the morning you sail? Australis checks in from 13:00 to 17:00, and both air-cruise lines want you in town by early afternoon; the airport page has the landing check.
Which quay
Muelle PratMeasured to Muelle Prat, where Australis checks you in from 13:00 to 17:00 and boards at 18:00, Cabo de Hornos is about 600 m away in a straight line. Flying the Drake with Antarctica21 or Quark instead? Then the pier doesn’t matter — your day starts at the operator’s briefing in town and ends at the airport. The Punta Arenas cruise guide keeps the two apart.

Airport bus
Not statedDon’t look for a city bus at the airport — an unofficial guide says none runs direct. A shared minibus or a taxi is the usual way in.
