“The Best!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 April 2011

person found this review helpful

This place is an absolute gem. Great location in Recoleto, a short walking distance to all the sights. The staff here were incredible. Everyone was friendly, helpful and went the extra mile to make suggestions, arrangements, etc. I can't say enough to commend them.

The room we had was spacious, quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was great - a wonderful selection. We have traveled a great deal and must say that this is one of the best places we have ever stayed. We would recommend this hotel without any hesitation.

“Excellent”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 January 2011

I had read some negative reviews on this site after booking this hotel & became nervous. However I need not have worried. Everything was perfect. The guys on the desk spoke perfect English and helped book trips etc, the room was v spacious with a strong shower and quiet air con. The breakfast was excellent. Variety of cereals,hams, cheeses,breads,nice fruit salad, yoghurt, pastries. V good in all. The wi fi in the hotel worked v well and could puck it up on my phone with no trouble. The location is quiet but in a nice area. If you stay here go to the restaurant directly across the road " brut ". V good. We went to one of the top restaurants listed in this site the night before but this place was streets ahead. I recommend this hotel strongly.

“Wonderful stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2008

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The location was fantastic; walking distance to most points of interest and in a beautiful neighborhood! We left Buenos Aires for a few days to go to Iguassu Falls and when we returned to this same hotel we were not satisfied with our room (it smelled quite bad) so they upgraded us to a lovely suite at no extra charge. Breakfasts were delicious with a very good selection. Complimentary internet access in the lobby was particularly useful, and the stations were often available when we needed to use the computers. Staff was excellent and recommended a very good tango show. It was touristy but the food was delicious, dancers were fantastic and the musicians were amazing so we didn't care that it was a little cliché. The only negative comment was one of the city tours the hotel set up for us; it was so terrible that it was actually funny. We would never have guessed a private tour could go so very wrong... so book your tours elsewhere. Otherwise this is a great place to stay.

“Satisfactory”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 April 2008

The hotel staff was very courteous. The restaurant was only adequate; they weren’t prepared for guests to eat or drink outside of their restricted serving times. The included breakfast was limited. The location of the hotel is in a safe area but is not very close to the tourist section. We felt safe walking to and from the hotel at night. It is close to a main avenue with local cafes.
