Guest Reviews

• Font (10/5): -
• Frederic (1/5): Fermé pour travaux mais vous fait payer pour un autre hotel qui sent les pieds - Gerne pour travaux Gerne pour travaux
• frank (8/5): - Location was good. Room a little small we had a twin bed room
• Мария (7/5): -
• Yoselin (5/5): Passable - the location Didn’t have air conditioner, the staff did not help us with a urgent call to the airport.
• Suket (4/5): Switch and bait - We were booked on this hotel. They claimed they were full and transferred us to a 4 star Exec Colon hotel nearby. It was not a four star. Hotel was very dated and had no AC. In the middle of the night we were sweating and asked for fans. They did provide fans but not the hotel We signed up for.
• Imandehzangi (2/5): No AC, No service, and no accountability. Do not even try! - It is in a good location and very close to the Colon Theater. One week before the trip, they emailed me that the hotel did not function. Instead, your booking was moved to Exe Colon Hotel, which is 4-star and in the same area! I accepted it to be helpful, considering that I would receive the same service! Unfortunately, it was not the case! Exe Colon is an old hotel! No proper service. Two small beds in a small room (I was supposed to have two twin beds in a large room). The hotel did not have an air conditioning system as well (it was not working!). Mid-November in Buenos Aires is very warm, and with no AC, the room was hell! I Was trying to run away! Terrible Experience! Not recommended at all!
• Gethin (10/5): - good location
• Evan (8/5): Very good - Beautiful old building along the bustling Avenida de Mayo. Friendly staff and great location for walking, bus or subway. They will need to update the building, and rooms, it is truly vintage!
• Luis (1/5): Bad -
• mary (10/5): - The staff e
• mary (10/5): - Good place to dtay
• Tatyana (7/5): Good -
• Mariela (5/5): Good location and breakfast. Ideal for short low-budget stays. - Impeccable breakfast. Great location. The building requires intervention. It looks like it once was a very fancy place, but it needs maintenance. Room was very small.
• ruben (10/5): - The staff is very good, and clean place
• ruben (10/5): - the staff , quiet ,no noise ,clean
• Raul (6/5): - The staff and service was excellent
• Javier (10/5): Excellent - Is so near about all tourists places and have a Starbucks just next to the hotel. The hotel is so security and it has International breakfast and Argnetino too. Is beautiful building
• Mukhlisakhon (2/5): Very poor -
• Mya (10/5): Exceptional -
• ruben (10/5): - attention clean ,and responsables persons
• Joe (4/5): Disappointing -
• Jiana (8/5): Very good -
• Moraima (2/5): - La propiedad necesita reparación , abres una ducha y a la hora sale el agua caliente, en los baños no hay secadoras de pelo, las cortinas llenas de huecos,no cierran, llegamos y nos dieron una habitación, que parecía una cárcel, hablé con la recepcionista y me dijo q si no me convenía (11:30 de la noche llegue) que tenía q llamar a Expidia, cuando me cambio para la habitación la cual había escogido yo y pagado, ya que en las fotos se veía fenomenal, Expidia ponía una habitación buena, es la q explico , había un frío, horrible, no te dicen, ni de calefacción, muy grosera, la q nos recibió esa noche , al otro día domingo fuimos a desayunar, no han visto en su vida un desayuno bueno, Todo frío, ni donde calentarse, Café Si a eso se le puede llamar café??? Sin embargo al otro día la rubia y la trigueña muy atentas las dos y el muchacho de la noche, el día antes de irnos nos dijeron sabían IDs que tenían desayuno aquí !!! Y le dijimos deben mejorarlo, ósea pagamos por algo q no consumimos, Porque si sabia la recepción que teníamos una habitación mejor que a las que nos llevó no nos la dio desde el primer momento cuando íbamos a estar una semana allí??? Definitivamente expidia debe mejorar y ver lo que oferta, es la compañía q uso por muchos años y espero q analicen bien lo que venden, Viajo y compro siempre a través de Expidia pero no dejo de reconocer que hay también otras muy buenas !! Espero que analicen bien lo que venden
• Natali (8/5): Very good - Friendly staff Nothing
• Peter (9/5): Superb - Great location, friendly staff. Beautiful old building, needs a bit of a touch up, but rooms were spotless. Nothing really, very picky if you find a fault here
• Yevgen (10/5): Exceptional -
• Yevgen (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rafaela (3/5): A very bad stay - The room was very old and didn't have any mirrors, we didn't have comfort or assistance... The WiFi doesn't work, they did allow drinking wine in the room, the breakfast is just ok. A very bad stay.
• Rhonda (8/5): Not a high-end property vintage, but very good location.. Before celebrity has pulled out - The property was vintage and clean. N/A
• Jorge (8/5): Very good -
• Gareis (8/5): Very good - Excelente atencion.
• Kristina (5/5): A place to sleep - It is situated convenient. The elevator worked (lived on 6th floor). The beds were comfortable (medium). Doors were locked to the street. It is old (1904, I think) and some of the vibe is still there. Staff very friendly and helpfull. At the pricepoint: value for money. There was not enough blankets to keep us warm. Had an extra myself, so didn't ask for ekstra, but housekeeping would have noticed this. The layout of the bathroom was unfortunate. The breakfast was not worth our time, but you can choose not to buy it. The door lock was a hazzle. Everything seemed worn and the hotel needs an update (restore it to former glory in respect for the old building).
• valerie (2/5): Terrible experience - This was officially the first hotel I ever stayed in. Room was very run down, shower broken,WiFi only worked on the first floor, location is very convenient but not safe at all, especially for families with kids. No hairdryer in the room. When u came down to the reception to ask for the thirstier, they had 4 and all of them were unsafe to use. Only one power outlet worked in the room. I strongly suggest to stay away from this property as it is terrible inside and location is dangerous.
• João (5/5): Ok place to sleep and take a shower - The staff were really helpful. Hope the manager values them. They did their best with every question and issue we had. The wifi is simply useless. We suppose to stay in a top floor but we were told by the recepcionist the wifi was not very good there. The thing is that the wifi was actually inexistent there. We then asked for a change of room which the staff kindly conceived for a room which the wifi should work properly and still it was barely usable. Used mostly roaming data. The experience could be much more improved with simple things like WiFi amplifiers (its 2023 ffs), having plug adapters on the reception (can even charge for it!), sim cards, etc.
• Priya (6/5): Pleasant - It was perfectly fine for a one night stay while I was transiting through Buenos Aires. It was nice to have breakfast included.
• Milka (4/5): Disappointing -
• Daniel (6/5): - Could be better I reserved a room pictured on the exp website and was offered different and was told all rooms are the same or similr. Internet is very slow at 11 mps. Room color is violet and lighting seems dim. Its okay I guess if you need an economical place
• Fabio (10/5): Good location, very good price and great staff. - The price/quality is perfect. The location
• Philip (2/5): Very poor - Nothing Wifi only worked in reception Breakfast cheese ,ham and dry cakes, Mosquetos everywhere But it was a very cheap hotel not where I would normally stay Loverly building could be really nice but would need serous cash spending
• Alexandru (10/5): Exceptional -
• Orlando (8/5): Muy buena - The young people at the hotel reception offer customers 5-star hotel service. They are, of course, very professional, but beyond that, they are personally involved in resolving doubts, answering questions and solving problems immediately. Of all the hotels I have stayed in on my long trip through America, this hotel has been, without question, the one where I have received the best reception. Best regards Although the best thing about this modest hotel is the reception (excellent: 5 stars), the Wi-Fi is exactly the opposite. If someone is going for work, this one is not the best option... Although I have the impression that most of the hotels in Buenos Aires below 5 stars seem to have the same problem.
• Dean (10/5): Exceptional -
• Guillaume (2/5): I won´t recommand this place - Breakfast No wifi in the room or event in the coridor but only at the reception TV from 90´s Bed one place with no confort dimension of the shower the price
• Emeli (7/5): Good - The wifi didn’t work at all
• Robin (5/5): Passable - Only the location The staff was not friendly at all and the room looked dirty and old.
• Ruben (7/5): Good -
• Milagros (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ben (8/5): Very good - bad WIFI connection
• Eliza (7/5): Good - Central location very close to the capital WiFi only worked in the lobby and 1st floor. I could not get online from my room
• Mya (6/5): Pleasant -
• Gabriela (7/5): Good -
• Andrés (10/5): All as I was expected - All Nothing
• Bud (9/5): Superb -
• Nicky (7/5): Good -
• Emiliano (10/5): Exceptional -
• Diego (8/5): Very good - Breakfast: excelent Wifi
• Cristian (7/5): Good - The staff and perfect location. The absolutely tiny shower (half my body was out).
• Cristian (7/5): Good location - Location and friendly staff. The shower was about 30 cm wide so it wasn't possible to shower properly.
• Mustafa (1/5): Not comfortable - Location No internet
• pedro anibal sosa (6/5): - buena ubicacion
• TAY (8/5): - The staff was very friendly. I made international calls and the property didn't charged me because it was for my family. That is so nice of them!!! The area felt safe for me during the day. I didn't go out out late at night but that's a general rule of thumb when you travel internationally. I like the area because there's many places to eat, many stores, and public transportation is nearby. The hotel is old and the amenities are outdated but that's it has it's own charm. If you are looking for modern hotel and amenities, this is not it. But you are out exploring places anyway and then come back for the night to rest and sleep this is it.
• Anonymous (7/5): Good - excellent reception, very helpful and found answers to all our questions, very good, thank you very old building, elevator making lots of noises
• Evelyn (9/5): Superb -
• Wawta (8/5): Very impressed - The hotel staff iare very nice. They help and answer questions that are useful for our 1-2 day short trip. The place is old but the service is great. I'm impressed. Nope
• Roberto (7/5): Comfortable and good breakfast - The location is perfect to know the city, is very close to the Casa Rosada and Obelisk. Sometimes it smells musty and the carpet is not so clean. But it has good ventilation.
• Bt (10/5): Excellent - Breakfast a little bit things was tabled please next time welcome with various of foods and drinks Nothing
• Matthew (5/5): Passable - I was shocked that the other Americans staying next door to me were robbed and had their computers and other valuables stolen from their room while they were out. Hotel staff didn’t seem to care. Very troubling having to carry all my belongings with me all day!!
• Jane (8/5): Very good - convenient location. room was basic but comfortable and great value. staff very pleasant
• Marcela (7/5): Good -
• Ronald (7/5): Good -
• Gal (10/5): Exceptional - location, good for the cost the elevator
• Jensen (1/5): never stay here the hotel staff robbed us - we got robbed from the hotel staff. $10K worth of goods. do not stay here. we got robbed from the hotel staff. $10K worth of goods. do not stay here.
• Ilan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jerome (8/5): Very good - Beautiful building with huge potential, but with quite a "shabby genteel" feel. Room was small with high ceiling so didn't feel too cramped, but is in need of modernisation. Old fashioned lift was interesting. Huge, high ceilinged breakfast room was airy, spacious and delightful. Breakfast provided good choice and plentiful supply of food. All staff were really lovely and very helpful. Beds were exceptionally comfortable and looked fresh and inviting every day. TV - poor picture, but we didn't come to Buenos Aires to watch television in our room even though the world cup final was on!
• Maksim (4/5): If you need a place to stay close to a lot of attractions - the hotel is suitable. If you need to work remotely in para - Very convenient location. Cleaning is done daily and well. Wi-fi was absent for the first three days, occasionally appearing in the area of ​​​​the first floor (I lived on the sixth). In recent days, he appeared, but took off every two minutes. The speed was very slow. It turned out to download only messages in vatsap.
• Eduardo (4/5): Disappointing - Not much, the real only good thing was how close it was to the city center Poor facilities, poor room accommodation, room did not seem very clean neither the bathroom. Was way to old and not maintained at all.
• Tracie (4/5): Disappointing - Staff were great. Very helpful Cleanliness of room particularly curtains. Poor carpets
• Roberto (8/5): Very good -
• Luis (7/5): Excellent location - the location The breakfast wasn’t so good and the Elevator every times was issues.
• Elwi (1/5): Bad - DONT GO THERE !!! I was R O B B E D !!!! ON REGULAR DAY ... they took alll my money ( just to let u kmow it was the start of my trip ) in the evening and the staff couldn't help me to get the monitoring, also when i was leaving they told me i need to pay for my stay --- but how could i when i did not have any money ? !!!! ( ofcourse before comming to Argentina i knew u need cash so card was no need it!!!!) AVOID THIS PLACE AS WELL AS HOTEL AND AS THE STUFF PLUS THE BOSS COULDNT COME COUSE HE WAS "BUSSY" POLICE CAME BUT THE BOSS DID NOT
• Joseph (3/5): Poor -
• Luigina (8/5): Very good -
• Juan (6/5): Pleasant -
• Ary (5/5): Good hotel if you only want to sleep there, fairly priced compared to other hotel of the neighborhood - Nice bulding, antique but clean and nice to see. Staff was really nice, patient abd attentive single rooms were very tiny, way too much than needed. Had some issues with the bathroom and wifi
• Iraq (5/5): Passable - Na intrenet dúzia que desatino estava incluso, mas.me cobraram quando saí.
• Robert-jan (3/5): Poor - Clean and location is really good. Staff is friendly and speaks English. Room had small balcony. No Wifi coverage! Staff told me that internet was not available in surrounding buildings either but had good reception at starbucks right next to hotel. Room was rather small and outdated but clean
• Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
• Zova (9/5): Superb -
• Alan (9/5): Really great night, awesome, I would come back. -
• Rajendra (8/5): Very good -
• Erich (6/5): Pleasant -
• Charles (10/5): Exceptional -
• Stacey (10/5): Wonderful service, excellent location - I stayed just as the coronovirus situation was ramping up in Argentina. Staff were great with extra cleaning and notices around the hotel in English as well as Spanish. Front desk staff so helpful and happy to be flexible as so many people's plans changed
• Verified traveler (2/5): - Booked in for 6 nights, left after 4. Noisy!. A room the size of a cupboard, a single bed meant for a child, noisy men shouting and slamming doors all night, traffic from the main street constant - sirens, buses, fights on the street. Breakfast very basic made worse by a large loud group of men staying there.
• Isabel (8/5): - Price was perfect, atención was great, but no refrigerator, no microwave available, and TV was an old one. Room very clean.
• ADREAN (10/5): I’d stay again !! - The staff was very nice and helpful. I initially booked at the Lennox up the street which was a swanky boutique hotel but they tried to double charge me. The mundial is affordable yet clean and very centrally located. I was not bothered and enjoyed my stay very much.
• Claudio (2/5): Mala experiencia con este Hotel - Hice la reserva con anticipación, Page el mismo día de la reserva . Cuando llegue al hotel , me cobraron 21% de impuesto cuando el monto ya estaba incluido en el precio . Muy mala experiencia .
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful building but a bit neglected. Staff was very nice and helpful.
• Stephen (10/5): Better than good. - Its hard to imagine a better place to stay for the price and keep the Argentine living style. The breakfast is good too if you are okay eating like the local culture. Although it says you have to pay upon arrival (if not paying online) they let me pay just whenever before check-out.
