Its <strong>reception<\/strong> is spacious with several sofas to rest and is illuminated all day long thanks to large windows facing Las Torres. <strong>Check-in<\/strong> is done there if you are staying at the refuge. It has a <strong>small souvenir store<\/strong> and camping essentials. If you are looking for food, they mainly sell snacks.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30968\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/inside-refugio-central.jpg?resize=600%2C342&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"reception refugio central\" width=\"600\" height=\"342\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/inside-refugio-central.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/inside-refugio-central.jpg?resize=105%2C60&amp;ssl=1 105w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Rooms<\/h3>\n<p>The rooms are divided in the two wings of the refuge. They have <strong>3 bunk beds<\/strong> with pillow, sleeping bag and blanket. You will also find a bulky <strong>drawer\/cabinet<\/strong> to store your backpacks. These can be padlocked if you bring your own padlock, but don&#8217;t worry because it is not necessary. All windows overlook Las Torres and the views are unbeatable. In each wing of the refuge there are <strong>bathrooms and showers with hot water 24 hours a day<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, they also have their own rest areas: a padded bench and large cushions on the floor around a wood-burning fireplace, very nice and cozy.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30972\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/rooms-refugio-central.jpg?resize=640%2C412&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"shared room refugio central\" width=\"640\" height=\"412\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/rooms-refugio-central.jpg?w=700&amp;ssl=1 700w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/rooms-refugio-central.jpg?resize=93%2C60&amp;ssl=1 93w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Common areas<\/h3>\n<p>In the dining room, with more than <strong>a dozen tables<\/strong> and stools, breakfast and dinner are served.<\/p>\n<p>At one end of the dining room is the bar, and at the other is the kitchen bar. This is where they deliver your box lunch in the morning.<\/p>\n<h3>Exterior of the Refugio Central<\/h3>\n<p>The outdoor garden is pleasant. It has tables spread out and the unbeatable views make it an ideal place to have a drink from the bar, read a book and enjoy it in the sun. A great plan.<\/p>\n<p>If you are staying at the campsite, you will have to walk a few more minutes to check-in at the hut.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30976\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/reception-camping-central.jpg?resize=640%2C366&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"reception central camping\" width=\"640\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/reception-camping-central.jpg?w=700&amp;ssl=1 700w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/reception-camping-central.jpg?resize=105%2C60&amp;ssl=1 105w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Camping areas<\/h3>\n<p>There are <strong>several areas for camping<\/strong>, whether you have your own tent to set up or you stay in those already set up with mat and bag.<\/p>\n<p>The novelty of 2023 is the<strong> Premium Camping<\/strong>. These are tents set up on a strong structure separated from the ground by almost a meter, like those used on safaris to camp on the roof of the 4\u00d74.<\/p>\n<p>The camping area has <strong>toilets and showers with hot water all day<\/strong> and gel dispensers. On the other hand, there is also an area where you can cook.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, there are wooden tables spread throughout the camping area.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30980\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/camping-area-central-refuge.jpg?resize=640%2C366&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"camping area central refuge\" width=\"640\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/camping-area-central-refuge.jpg?w=700&amp;ssl=1 700w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/camping-area-central-refuge.jpg?resize=105%2C60&amp;ssl=1 105w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Extra info:<\/strong> You can refill your <strong>water bottles<\/strong> both in the bathrooms and in the dining rooms. On the other hand, you have <strong>Wi-fi for a fee<\/strong> with various rates depending on how many hours you want to hire.<\/p>\n<h2>North Hut<\/h2>\n<p>Next to Refugio Central we find <strong>a smaller and cozier one called Refugio Norte<\/strong>. It has rooms for 6 people, bathrooms with hot water and a common area. However, it does not have a kitchen, so you would have to hire the all-inclusive or go to the kitchen for campers located in the Central.<\/p>\n<h2>Opinion of the Torres del Paine Refugio Central<\/h2>\n<p>In our opinion it is a large refuge, but without being excessive, so it still <strong>maintains a certain mountaineering character<\/strong>, especially thanks to its exterior areas and the interior rest areas. Its <strong>facilities are very good<\/strong> and since it is the gateway to the park it is necessary that it has this capacity, as it is an area used by many travelers.<\/p>\n<h2>Las Torres Hotel<\/h2>\n<p>Finally, we would like to mention that the Las Torres hotel, located in a spectacular enclave, <strong>has 74 rooms<\/strong>, all with views and different capacities, from 1 to 4 people. It also offers other services such as an <a title=\"Torres del Paine trek in hotel\" href=\"https:\/\/www.howlanders.com\/en\/tours-chile\/puerto-natales\/w-trek-torres-paine-hotel?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=post-kw&amp;utm_campaign=refugio-central\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">all-inclusive experience<\/a> that includes as many tours and activities as you can do in a day, as well as food and signature cocktails. Another option to stay in this luxury hotel is simply the bed &amp; breakfast option, chosen by some travelers to have <strong>a first or last day of luxury<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Even if you are not staying at the hotel, you can still go to the <strong>Pionero Bar<\/strong> to enjoy the best views with original cocktails and craft beer. A good plan for the end of a day of trekking. If you want, you can also eat at the <strong>Coir\u00f3n Restaurant<\/strong>, a mixture of traditional and modern gastronomy with products from its regenerative garden. In its <em>Quincho<\/em> you will be able to taste the Patagonian barbecue while watching it being cooked. If you want to treat yourself, another surprising option is the <strong>Spa and Wellness Center<\/strong> where you can let yourself be pampered by expert hands before the day is over.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Torres del Paine Lodging\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.howlanders.com\/en\/torres-del-paine-lodging\/\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-31705\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/torres-del-paine-lodging.jpg?resize=640%2C137&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"torres del painde lodging\" width=\"640\" height=\"137\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/torres-del-paine-lodging.jpg?w=700&amp;ssl=1 700w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.howlanders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/torres-del-paine-lodging.jpg?resize=280%2C60&amp;ssl=1 280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Central Sector is the gateway to Torres del Paine in the traditional itinerary.
