Good location
Very good location at the heart of every iconic location. Needs alot of renovation, tired and old building with basic dark furnishings.The breakfast is poor not even bread to make your own toast. Good for short stay and somewhere to sleep.

Really old hotel
This is a very old hotel in the Avenida de Mayo area. The rooms have no AC and are quite noisy, you can hear people talking in the corridors, also the room carpet feels a bit dirty. Only stayed one night here (thanks god).

A great historic hotel, and a great value. Especially given the free access to the spa. I’ve stayed here before several times. My only issue this time was, the mattress was unevenly worn and past it’s expiration date.

Good location
Very good location and you can see it was a beautiful hotel in the public areas in its prime. It does need some refurbishment in the rooms. It was very economical and we were happy with our stay

Old world charm but you get what you pay for
Very nice staff throughout and room well cleaned. Nice retro recetion area. But room was tiny - this was not flagged by Expedia. Lots of youth soccer teams staying there so extremely crowded at breakfast. On our last night, pounding late at night until 2 am from some type of construction nearby (not hotel’s fault). Drains in bathroom smelled a little from old plumbing most likely.

Nice location, but horrible customer service
The hotel is outdated, but in a good location. The night staff was horrible. I believe they do not know what is Customer Service. The morning staff, is much friendlier and professional. The rooms are very old and musky. The mattress really needs to be replaced. The restaurant in the hotel is very slow, and the food is not the greatest. I don't think this hotel deserves 3 stars, i would give them 2!!!

A gen deteriorated
What a shame! This beautiful historic hotel has not been maintained. The lobby still looks beautiful but look at the couches and they're so filthy you can't sit on them! Great breakfast and enviable location but this frequent traveler to BA will never stay here again!

My room was very small. with a tiny bathroom and the window facing the inner tiny and dark inner yard. It was dark and hot in the room all the time. the carpeting, furniture, wallpaper were old and unpleasant.

Good Reasonably Priced hotel in Great location
Reasonably priced hotel in great location just off 9 Julio Avenue and the famous Obelisk. The hotel is a little tired and the decor is old in the rooms and the common areas but the staff are nice and as a cheap place to stay in Central Buenos Aires I would recommend it.

AMAZING!!
While the hotel is older it is absolutely amazing. The service is great, attentive and quick. Each stay also includes free use of the sauna and a few other spa amenities. The location is amazing. 30 minutes from the ferry ports, right off the main Ave (Av. 9 Julio). A 10/15 minute walk to the obelisks, BA sign, and local theater. Also close to many museums and restaurants. Amazing location, condition, and luxury for a great price. Would definitely recommend and rebook
