“Quaint Hotel in a Great Area”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

This is a charming, quaint hotel that is in a great area! The hotel staff is very welcoming and helpful. They recommended tours and tango shows for us and arranged everything. The hotel breakfast was very good. We especially loved the coffee and medalunas. The hotel lobby was comfortable with many seating areas and a computer for public use. The lift was extremely small, it was hard to fit one person and their luggage. The room was spacious and clean. The windows were large and opened with a nice view of the courtyard. The hotel location is close to the cemetery and in a cute, safe neighborhood. La Cabrera is an excellent restaurant with the most amazing meat selection. Any steak you order comes with a ton of small side dishes and dipping sauces. I would highly recommend this restaurant, champagne is also complimentary while you wait for your table. Casa Cruz and Cabana Las Lilas are also great restaurants. Dinners are much later, as many people don't eat until after 9:30pm. The wines are great in BA and very affordable. Many places offer "snacks" if you just order drinks. This is quite nice in the late afternoon after sightseeing all day. Plaza Dorrego for the Sunday market is a must see. Many tango shows and street performers. Many bars/restaurants off of the Plaza are very good, and offer their own entertainment inside while you drink/eat....we were pulled up on stage to dance at one of them! La Boca is another neighborhood worth visiting with bright colors and culture. The malls are very upscale and the decor is impressive. We ventured in one day and were pleasantly surprised, worth a visit. Will definitely stay at this hotel the next time I am in BA!

“Nice boutique type property”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 December 2011

I chose this hotel based on the location as I wanted to be close to my friend's place in Recoleta. The area is very nice and high end and within walking distance to numerous eateries and shopping.

The reception staff were courteous and spoke excellent English. The rooms were nicely decorated and bathroom amenities were good. The wifi is not free but it's sold in 12 hr, increments so I only needed to make one purchase during my four night stay. There is a free PC to use in the lobby.

The hotel uses a renovated old building. So while the elevators can be slow and manual, there are two of them to use. There were some unexplained blackouts but I would put that down to being in Argentina. Breakfast was average. The cold cuts and juices were good.

“nice little place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 December 2011

person found this review helpful

This is a small hotel, in a great location, for a low price (we paid US$ 62/night). For the price and the size, you can´t ask for such things as a great variety in breakfast or a fully equiped business center. We had a nice, quiet and clean room, very good bed and shower and helpful staff. The only problem was the wi-fi, it costed US$14 for 12 hours, but didn´t work properly, after a few hours of frustration, we were given another code and everything went ok.
What seems wrong is that, while there, in the little time we spent in the lobby, we saw at least three groups on the same day whose reservations had been cancelled by the web or by expedia, and they were redirected to other hotels of the chain. It seems to be a hotel policy to overbook.

“Great stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 December 2011

person found this review helpful

Excellent location and nice room for a very fair price. Local area is an upscale residential neighborhood with great restaurants a 10 minute walk away. Room was recently renovated with a nice televison and comfy bed. Bathroom was a bit dated but clean. Would definately stay again and the hotel staff was excellent in answering any questions about the area and securing a remise to EZE upon departure.

“Don't stay here”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 December 2011

As seems to be a common thread here I also booked this hotel as it was offering 50% discount and a great location in BA (Recoleta) .

I also booked as the deal offered free Wifi as well as a tango show - neither of which i received. When i asked about it the concierge was exceptionally supercilious and said that the free wifi must've referred to the 1 free computer in the lobby - which was constantly occupied.

It was $14 extra for 12 hours for a wifi code. He argued with me as if i was being cheap - of course i could pay for the wifi but that wasn't the point...every other hotel i had stayed in offered free wifi. If it was such a minor thing why did he not just give me a code, and then i would not have felt such distate for the hotel as he would have honoured the contract as well as dealt respectfully with the client especially as the rate wasn't cheap.

The shower in the room as dreadful too, a little drip.

And, it's not for the claustrophic type as the lift is tiny, old-school and broke down during the one day we were there or else you had to wait 20 minutes to reach you (we were on the 8th floor).

to be fair, on first glimpse the hotel was "boutique" and stylishly decorated, but for the price, as well as what else was on offer in the city (stayed at a great place in Palermo that didn't fuss over wifi) i wouldn't recommend.
