Great location, right on city center and close to metro stations and touristic attractions. The bathroom was very small but the room itself was not so bad, just a little bit old. The breakfast could be better.

If you are looking for location, you probably cannot beat this hotel. It is two or three blocks from the Casa Rosada, a block from the Bolivar Subte Station, an easy walk to San Telmo. The rooms are adequate, as is the breakfast. The staff is friendly and helpful. Some rooms are better than others, we came back and were... More

This hotel is run by the UNION DE TRABAJADORES DEL TURISMO, HOTELEROS Y GASTRONOMICOS DE LA REPUBLICA ARGENTINA (UTHGRA) or the Labor Union of the country's hotel industry. It should be a Flagship of their "savoir faire", a source of pride and excellence. But It is run like a small family business in an outdated building. Comfort of rooms is... More

Great location (behind Mansana de las Luces, near Plaza de Mayo), low price and a nice breakfast! You will get a lot more than you pay for in this simple but functional hotel. Near "calle" Florida, Plaza de Mayo and Café Tortoni. Definitely a great place to stay in Buenos Aires. Don't let the ugly neighborhood frightens you. It is... More

This hotel is a very good place to stay, and it's located on the heart of downtown, near to metro station and near to Casa Rosada. The room was clean and comfortable. I recommend this hotel

This is not a bad hotel, it is simply extremely basic. The rooms and bathrooms are tiny. Everything is clean and the front desk personnel are very friendly. For me, the biggest problem was the church in front of the street, which start to ring the bells at 7 am every 15 minutes.... so if you want to have a... More

The only positive aspect is the location: next to Plaza de Mayo. So if you are looking for a place in which to sleep only, not very nice and elegant but basic, this is the hotel for you. If you are looking for a comfortable hotel in which spend different days, with elegant and nice rooms, this is not the... More

If you plan on visiting the city, and just need a place to sleep and shower, this hotel will do the trick. It's in a pretty good location. A lot of the tourist attractions are within walking distance, a hippy fair nearby where the local artists display their crafts, as well as stores and malls. There is nothing fancy about... More
