“clean, helpful staff but a little out-dated”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 February 2011

I stayed one night in feb-2011 in the Posta Carretas on a Business trip in Argentina. I was given a single room on the third floor. The room was rather small, but very clean. During cleaning I've had the opportunity to look into the double rooms, which are more spacious. The furniture is a little old-fashioned. The bed was not that great, but still ok. The bathroom was small, with an awkward positioning of the toilet, but - as the rest of the room - very clean. One negative point of the bathroom is the absence of ventilation.
Breakfast is served as a buffet.
In my opinion it is a little overpriced, especially for the small single rooms. The hotel can count on its very helpful staff and cleanliness.

“A hotel that you feel at ease with,staff friendly and helpful and Leonardo the owner kind and helpful person a must.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 February 2010

Buenos Aires is a wonderful city that has everything going for it, a vist to the Senor Tango show which the hotel will arrange for you is a must, the meal before the show was excellent and Argentina wine takes some beating. Thank you Argentina for all the kindness you gave my wife and myself.

“Good Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2009

The hotel is a bit old but the location is good and the frontdoor guys was very gently. The breakfest its normal, nothing much.

“Last time ever”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 April 2008

Actually I AM in the hotel now and we are staying here for 6 noghts with a group of 6.

The decor is brown and old a definitely needs to be renewed.
The last time they invest serious money in this hotel must be ages away, and you can tell that by the whole interior of the premises.

I just sent and email to my travel agent and let me copy a part of my email in here:

The Posta Carretas is a four star hotel, but it does not look like that.
The rooms have everything that makes them 4 stars but the rooms and the rest of the hotel is of a very poor standard.
Everything looks very very old and lots things why I booked the hotel for aren't worth a visit. (The pool is freezing cold and a bit bigger than a bathtub, the sauna is not warm and fits 3 people only) and so I can continue a long time.
The breakfast and service at the breakfast is so poor (cold toast, green cold boiled eggs, old bread and so on), you will ge better in a 2 or 3 star hotel.
So is it worth the money overall? NO! Absolutely not!

END COPY.

So, think twice before you book.

Anything positive? Yes, the bell boys are friendly and the elevators are working well.

The hotel is located around all the major sites. My room was clean and had a balcony and a jacuzzi in it. Breakfasts were nice, the hotel was quiet. Next time I'm down in Buenos Aires I will definatly be staying here.
