Hands off the best hotel that I've ever stayed. Off the charts service. Everything was beautiful and it's in the best location of Buenos Aires. It's a bit expensive, but it's worth every penny. US people: there are no irons on rooms, so be prepared to request one.

The first room not so great but the second much better. Ask for park views. A very solid property. Only issue I had was Concierge not super friendly. Butlers on each floor. Nice touch. Solid location. Highly recommend if you appreciate the classic touches.

Expensive as it may seem, the afternoon tea is faultless! From the smartly attired, white glove-wearing waiters to the delicious cakes, this is a real treat to be enjoyed be people of all ages. We opted for the champagne afternoon tea option, and being Londoners with a penchant for tea, enjoyed the traditional English style of afternoon tea here. The... More

We knew when we go to B.A. we want to stay at The Alvear and we don't regret our choice. The interior is amazing and so is the friendly service from all the staff. Breakfast in the winter garden is also an experience and we don't complain about the variety of food!! We aren't the only guests which love the... More

We went for afternoon tea and had a lovely time. This is a soul soothing kind of place where everything works perfectly and people know what you want before you've even thought if it yourself.

We had Sunday brunch and the food was excellent. The menu was varied ranging from wild boar to organic chicken. The salads were exceptional. Desserts and pastries were ok. The staff and servers were very attentive and polite. Brunch was pricey but the ambience made up for it. Come at least once to day you did!
