Hotel Location
Guest Reviews & Ratings
The hotel's location is superb, situated in the San Telmo area with plenty of great restaurants within walking distance. The rooms were acceptable, though there were initial issues with readiness, leading to a room change request. Despite this, the location is very convenient.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of ups and downs. The rooms were spacious and clean, but they never really cooled enough no matter what setting I used. The service was courteous overall, but some staff members were not very helpful. The location was convenient, close to many places of interest in Buenos Aires. The dining experience had some good selections, but it was not very exciting. The facilities were decent, but there were some areas for improvement.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic, with spacious, bright, and spotlessly clean rooms. The location is very good, close to two subway lines, making it convenient to explore the city. The service was excellent, with attentive and very helpful staff. The dining experience offered great value with delicious pastries and a variety of breakfast options.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms are spacious, overlooking the main boulevard, with free fast WiFi and equipped with balcony doors. The bed was huge and luxurious, and the bathroom was top-notch with a powerful shower. However, the service seemed a bit fed up at times, but they did go out of their way to assist us when my wife had a dental emergency. The location is good, close to the San Telmo district and has a Subte station nearby, though being in the lobby was a bit inconvenient. The dining experience was great, with a variety of options, including eggs, and the facilities offered were impressive.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, although spacious but dated, were quite cozy and had a tidy bathroom. However, the check-in process was inconvenient, as my room was only ready after 11 am, leaving me with a choice of waiting for hours or paying for another room temporarily.
