Guest Reviews & Ratings

What Guests Are Saying?

7.0/10

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is fantastic-very close to Avenida Corrientes and many tango halls, making it perfect for exploring the area. The rooms were clean but a bit noisy at night, especially facing the street. The service could use improvement as the staff struggled with English and weren't particularly polite. Plus, the breakfast selection was quite disappointing. Overall, it offers decent value if you're okay with some drawbacks.

The rooms were clean, but those facing the street can be quite noisy at night. I was on the first floor and there was an issue with my room allocation due to a missing number.

The hotel is in a great location, just a short walk from the famous tango halls and lots of fantastic restaurants on Reconquista. It's very convenient for exploring downtown Buenos Aires.

The breakfast was quite disappointing. It's basically just coffee, tea, and bread, which really doesn't live up to a continental breakfast.

I recently stayed at this hotel, which is located in central Buenos Aires, making it very convenient to explore the city. The rooms were clean and quiet, with a nice view, though they felt a bit small. The staff was friendly and helpful, but there were some issues with the elevator during my stay, which was a bit inconvenient. Overall, the hotel offers good value for money; just keep in mind the dining options were a bit limited.

The hotel has a fantastic location right in downtown Buenos Aires, making it super convenient for exploring the city. My room was nice and quiet, but it was a bit small. On the downside, the elevator situation was frustrating, as there was only one and it was quite old. Overall, it's a decent place for the price, especially if you're looking to be close to all the attractions, but you might want to consider noise levels at night.
