Party Hostels in Bariloche

Bariloche has a split personality that works entirely in a backpacker's favour. By day it's all glacial lakes and chocolate shops along Mitre Street; by night the Centro Cívico area fills with travellers chasing craft beer and Patagonian spirits until the small hours. The bar scene along Calle Quaglia and the surrounding blocks is compact enough to walk between venues in minutes, which makes impromptu nights out the norm rather than the exception. Hostels here are genuinely sociable. Vintage Bariloche Hostel Boutique has a reputation as the go-to party option, while Nevada Hostel pulls in a slightly mellower but still sociable crowd. Dorm beds start around $9 a night, which leaves plenty in the budget for a pint of local Blest beer. Ski season (July to September) turns the whole town electric, but the summer hiking crowd keeps things lively year-round.

Which Area Should You Stay In?

How Bariloche's nightlife zones break down

Centro / Centro Cívico

The heart of Bariloche, anchored by the stone Centro Cívico plaza on the lakefront. Calle Mitre runs east from here and is lined with chocolate shops, tour agencies, and bars that get busy after 10pm. Most hostels within a few blocks means you can roll home on foot.

Best for: Hostels, bars, and easy lakefront access

Calle Quaglia

A short street running south from the Centro that packs in some of the best craft beer spots in town, including Antares and Blest. It's quieter than the main drag but that's the point. the crowd here tends to be locals and travellers who've been around long enough to know where to drink.

Best for: Craft beer and local bars

Barrio Belgrano

A residential neighbourhood roughly ten minutes on foot south of Centro, where accommodation is cheaper and the streets are quieter. It's a solid base if you want to escape the tourist centre, with a handful of local restaurants along Rolando Street connecting it back into town.

Best for: Budget accommodation and local atmosphere

Bars and Clubs in Bariloche

Bars, clubs and live music in Bariloche

Cervecería Blest

Avenida Bustillo Km 11.6

Bariloche's original craft brewery and still one of its best nights out. The house ales and stouts are brewed on-site and served in a large timber-beamed space that fills up fast after 9pm. Mains run to around 2,000–3,000 ARS and the beer is exceptional value by Argentine standards.

Craft beerBreweryLate night

Antares

Calle Quaglia 258, Centro

Part of a small Argentine craft beer chain but the Bariloche outpost holds its own. The IPA and porter are the picks of the tap list. The bar gets genuinely packed on weekends, with a younger crowd spilling onto Quaglia after midnight.

Craft beerBarWeekend crowds

Wilkenny Irish Pub

San Martín 435, Centro

The go-to for big sports screenings and long evenings with new hostel friends. Pints of Guinness and Kilkenny, live music some nights, and a crowd that's about half travellers and half locals who've adopted the place. Gets loud and chaotic in ski season.

PubLive musicSportsLate night

Cerebro Club

Juan Manuel de Rosas 405, Centro

The main proper nightclub in Bariloche, running electronic and pop sets through a decent sound system from around midnight. Entry runs to roughly 1,000–1,500 ARS and often includes the first drink. Don't bother turning up before 1am.

ClubElectronicLate nightDJ

El Boliche de Alberto

Villega 347, Centro

Technically known for its parrilla, but after the plates are cleared this place transitions into one of the town's livelier social spots. A solid pre-club dinner with a bottle of Malbec here is a Bariloche backpacker rite of passage.

BarPre-drinksParrilla

Genuss Bier

Calle Mitre, Centro

A newer craft beer bar with a rotating tap list that leans into German-influenced Patagonian brewing traditions. Smaller and more relaxed than Blest, which makes it a good early-evening option before heading deeper into the night.

Practical Info

✈️
Getting to Bariloche
Teniente Luis Candelaria International Airport (BRC) sits about 15km east of the city centre. A taxi into town costs roughly 3,000–4,000 ARS and takes 20 minutes. Remis (fixed-price shared taxis) are cheaper if you book at the airport desk. Long-distance buses from Buenos Aires take around 20 hours on the sleeper services run by companies like Andesmar and Via Bariloche, departing from Retiro bus terminal.
🚌
Getting around town
The city centre is walkable. most hostels, bars, and the lakefront are within 15 minutes on foot of each other. Local buses (Omnibus 3 de Mayo) cover the wider area including Avenida Bustillo heading towards Llao Llao, with fares around 150–200 ARS paid with a SUBE card. Taxis are metered and affordable for longer trips.
💵
Costs and currency
Argentina's informal exchange rate (known as the blue dollar or dólar blue) gives significantly better value than the official bank rate. exchange USD or EUR at licensed exchange offices called 'cuevas' for the best deal. Hostel dorm beds start around $9 USD equivalent. A craft beer at Antares costs about 800–1,200 ARS and a parrilla dinner with wine runs to around 3,000–5,000 ARS per person.
🏔️
When to visit
Ski season runs July through September and is the most social time to be in Bariloche, with Cerro Catedral drawing skiers from across South America. Summer (December to March) is better for hiking and lake swimming, with long daylight hours. Shoulder seasons in April–May and October–November see far fewer crowds and lower hostel prices.
📱
SIM cards and Wi-Fi
Pick up a Claro or Personal SIM card from phone shops along Calle Mitre for around 2,000–3,000 ARS including data. Most hostels offer free Wi-Fi in common areas. Coverage in town is good; it drops off quickly once you head into the mountains on day hikes.
🍫
Safety and local tips
Bariloche is one of Argentina's safer tourist cities and petty crime is relatively low. The main risk is overpriced tours sold aggressively near the Centro Cívico. book through your hostel instead. In ski season, book dorm beds well in advance as the city fills up fast and prices spike.
