More about the hotel
Old World Charm with modern rooms
We arrived very early in the morning, around 9.00am and were able to check within about 45 minutes, which was very much appreciated. Ricardo at the front desk was very helpful. Our room # 508, was facing the road and had a tiny balcony. The room was clean and modern, but rather small. We had to push to bed over in order to open the balcony door and push it the other way in order to open the closet. The bathroom was huge and had all the amenities one could want. The bathtub enclosure (to transform it into a shower) was not very well designed and it left the bathroom floor totally wet. The lights and AC only work when the key is inserted into a 'reader', which means that when one is out of the room the AC does not work, which made our west facing room very warm and it took quite a while to cool down a bit. The hotel is in a beautiful old building, has a breakfast buffet included in the price and the breakfast room turns in a restaurant for lunch and dinner. There is also a very nice bar. We enjoyed the location, felt safe and would stay again.
Old world
The hotel was located in an accessable position not far from two metro stations and a bus stop. Luckily there was double glazing as we had a room facing the busy main street. It was clean with reasonable space in each room, airconditioning, a safe and refridgerator. The staff could speak English well and were helpful. The sent us to an excellent restaurant not far away which was a little pricey but delicious and provided us with a free glass of champagne on presentation of our hotel voucher. A good breakfast was included but unfortunately the morning we were leaving on our 5am flight there was no option to have an early tray either the night before or the morning of our departure. Large bed was a little lumpy but bearable. The worst thing was that the wall separating the guest rooms was not soundproofed at all and the adjoining room"s noise created by the occupants and television woke us at 4.30am.
Old World charm and good location.
Beautiful building with lots of history (see old pictures of famous guests everywhere:- including Einstein!). Room wasn't big, but adequate with nice en-suite. Food was good but service could be a bit slow at times. Elevators too small and not enough of them, but it would be a shame to wreck the lobby area to install bigger, modern ones as it is so atmospheric. Great security and porterage service at main entrance:- they get you a taxi in a flash! Position is also convenient for tourist hop-on hop-off bus route, only about two blocks away.
A beautiful place to stay
This place is just wonderful and impressing. You stay in the centre of Buenos Aires, can walk just right out of the hotel into interesting spots downtown. The rooms are big with modern bathrooms and lots of space in the closets.
Experience when stay shortened due to coronavirus impact
All aspects well managed by staff, particularly "West Virginia" at the front desk. Hopefully refund for unused nights is forthcoming via travel agent when requested. Particularly liked the high ceilings and magnificent staircase.
