- Álvaro (9/5): -
- Martin (10/5): Mightvfibe - There was no breakfast. Why did you ask this. Ho hum Rusted dish dryer. Gross. Not sanitary
- Magdalena (10/5): -
- Kaisa (10/5): Great location for exploring the city and taking a quiet break when needed. - Great studio apartment in an excellent location. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. It was easy to exchange messages with the property already before my arrival. I would stay there again anytime. No such thing.
- Laura (10/5): Thoughtful attention to details - Wonderful to have studio with kitchen and sitting area. Good location in Recoleta. Very quiet. Wonderful, friendly staff. Nice extra touches: Malbec wine and coffee beans awaiting in kitchen upon arrival; quick laundry service; nice note and champagne left in room for New Year’s Eve; front desk arranged dinners and airport transfers). Highly recommend. Terrace and deck were under reconstruction, but should be a terrific addition when they are ready again.

- JOSE EDUARDO (1/5): DANGER : Los peores días de mi vida . Desde las 7,40 hasta las 17 hs martillos neumáticos y golpes . La peor experiencia - Que me puede gustar si están dinamitando el lugar . No es reparaciones era construcción . No tiene mesa para sentarte a comer . Tiene una tabla isla pequeña . Dijeron que había reparación y los constructores empezaban 7,40 con un martillo neumático . Tengo videos y filmaciones . La aplicación debería NO permitir rentar lugares en edificación por el peligro y los ruidos molestos hasta las 17 horas sin parar . Los dueños del lugar unos irresponsables . Los 10 peores días de mis vacaciones .
- carolina carlini (7/5): - El estilo,la decoración y la ubicación Estaba en obra y la terraza en deshuso
- Oscar (10/5): - Great place, great área and staff very attentive and helpfull
- Debby (10/5): - Poetry Building communicated quickly and clearly right away after booking, and again shortly before our visit with helpful suggestions of travel. It provided the privacy and full kitchen of an apartment, plus the convenience of a hotel: laundry, cleaning, and very helpful, friendly,English-speaking concierges when we wanted. A wonderful stay!
- Kate (10/5): Super boutique aparthotel for families - The staff here are wonderful. Super helpful and kind in so many ways. The building is gorgeous and the apartment was prefer what we needed. Building work going on next door but this was communicated well in advance and the work was contained to 8-5. Highly recommend
- Tracy (10/5): - Lovely boutique hotel!
- Julie (9/5): Superb -
- Nicola (10/5): Exceptional -
- N (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sally (8/5): Very good - An ambience of Peron shabby chic … comfortable and attractive interiors with a nod to Argentinian furniture of a bygone era … exceptional staff Construction noise during the work day and one weekend evening v late
- Gabriela (8/5): Besides the two things that I didn’t like mentioned above, in general, staying there was a very nice experience. - Location, facilities, room size, decoration, small kitchen - Shower temperature oscillating while using it.
- Construction noise next to my room.
- Ryan (10/5): - Always on point.
- Norma Lydia (8/5): - A great Surprise To Find This Beautiful Apartment, In This Hotel, Very LittlePlace Very Clean Very You And The Location Is Great …a Little Bit Noisy But Was Because I Was construction For New Rooms
- Brigid (10/5): - This is one of the nicest and most unique places we’ve found on Expedia!
Great place with excellent decor and awesome rooms.
We chose a room with a loft. So unique and awesome! My wife loved it! Worth the extra few bucks to get the loft!!
The thing that really “made” our stay at the Poetry Building was the people that work there.
They were so helpful with giving us a few suggestions for things to see, what’s close (walkable), and what’s worth the trip across town for. Recommendations for culture, shopping, restaurants (steaks), and sweets (pastries).
Our trip was quick (3 days, and we had rain during them ☹️) but the staff gave us great ideas (and umbrellas!) that made our trip awesome!
This place IS the one to book for your Buenos Aries trip. Stop scrolling and book it!
- Maria (10/5): - Comfortable and convenient. Like having your own apartment on an excellent location.
- Rebecca (10/5): Amazing. We can’t wait to return at some point in the future! - It was perfect. We enjoyed having our own space in the apartment for lazy mornings. The location was great and all the staff were so accommodating! Yes there are some building works going on to expand the hotel but honestly they were no problem. Started at 8 and finished by 5. We stayed on the 5th floor and the sound was not bad- just more of a background noise.
- Deborah (9/5): Lovely hotel with excellent staff - This hotel caters to your comfort with extremely helpful and friendly staff. Communication was A+. The airport transfer service was excellent. We loved the comfortable suite with a charming balcony. Good location in easy walking distance of Recoleta attractions. The only negative was street noise during the night. People, dogs, vehicles. I slept after I put earplugs in (but it did not bother my husband, who slept perfectly well.)
- Ioanna (8/5): Very good - Excellent location in a nice and safe area and quite close to several other neighborhoods with museums, parks and restaurants.
The staff were extremely friendly, helpful and they made us feel like home!! Some aspects of the rooms need renovation and the WiFi was very poor. Unfortunately during our stay a renovation was taking place in the next building and although we were informed when we booked the room, apparently it was more noisy than we thought, especially during the weekdays in the morning.
- Craig (8/5): very nice except for the construction noise. - Very friendly and helpful staff. Good location. Nice tasteful room with high ceilings. We arrived early (before 8am) and there was no-one there (except the porter whom we woke and did not know much) to help us.
The construction was going on right behind our wall (in room 3A), so there was constant loud banging between 7:15am and 6:00pm Mon-Sat, sometimes even later. It was unpleasant to be in the room during these hours (luckily we were always out and about). This was not exactly what we were told in advance. To be fair, we were offered another room when we complained about this, but we declined because that particular room had its own issues. We think the hotel should not use the rooms immediately adjacent to the construction.
- Perry (10/5): Will be back - Very helpful providing local information, booking transport. Will look forward to seeing the completed building works adjacent.
- Marcy (10/5): Great staff and location very comfortable/ - Location Only thing was ac made nose and sometimes didn’t work properly/
- Lizzie (6/5): It’s a beautiful place and good location but the building work on their own extension left us disappointed - There was drilling from 11-5 pm it was deafening
They did warn us ahead but we had no idea it would be that loud !!
- Patrikc (6/5): Be careful of being overcharged - Great location We were overcharged about 50% too much. The staff are not always available. Especially as we had asked twice if someone would be available at checkout between 8 and 9am
- Luis (5/5): Passable - Pool in roof top No breakfast
- Corinna (7/5): Good - Excellent staff and services (quick laundry), very good position. The apartment was nicely decorated It was clean but it could have been cleaner
- Hans (9/5): Great apartment in BA -
- Angie (6/5): Pleasant -
- Michelle (10/5): Exceptional -
- Christopher (8/5): Very good - Good staff. Excellent location. Good value. Room a little dark
- El Houssine (10/5): - We really enjoyed staying at this hotel. It’s an amazing place to stay in. Everyone is friendly, helpful and really fantastic.
Amazing location as well.
Will definitely go back there on my next trip. Definitely recommended.
- Victor (10/5): - Our stay at the Poetry Building was perfect. From checking in with Valentina to the 7 nights we stayed, our apartment was exactly what we had hoped for. We had private terrace and balcony spaces and a fully furnished apartment where we were able to prepare a few meals when we wanted. The pool and garden were great spaces for to relax with a glass of wine in after a long day of sightseeing. The staff at the Poetry Building were nice, friendly and very accommodating with helping us explore restaurant reservations, letting us borrow umbrellas and making some great overall suggestions.
The location was also great in the middle of Recoleta where we could walk almost anywhere we wanted to explore the city.
A few blocks away from Sante Fe Ave, where it was easy to catch a taxi and also a few blocks away from the Subte, which made our stay very convenient.
Highly recommend a stay with Poetry Building, you won’t regret it!
- Hannah (8/5): Very good - Great location - we didn't get to experience much as we only stayed a night Maybe a little functional!
- Georgia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Blair (10/5): - Wonderful place! The apartment had everything we needed and was lovely. The area around it was walkable and had restaurants/markets nearby. The hotel was quiet and the beds were very comfortable!
- Lone (10/5): Exceptional - love that we could have a late checkout and that the location was quiet the pool looked a bit nasty
- Ed (10/5): Excellent location, amazing staff. - Excellent location for restaurants and sightseeing on foot. Amazing and most helpful multilingual staff who are happy to help with restaurant choices and reservations as well as transportation needs. Spacious and nicely furnished rooms and suites withvery well equipped kitchens.
- Elizabeth (10/5): - The people managing the hotel were wonderful. Valentina was welcoming and helpful as was the other young woman whose name I didn't catch. Studio was really nice and well equipped. Great area. We would certainly stay here again.
- Chris (10/5): - Such a fantastic stay! The hotel is beautiful and the apartments have everything you’d need. The staff is amazingly helpful and went above and beyond to make our stay the best experience. The neighborhood is beautiful and you can walk to great shops, bars and restaurants. 10/10 would recommend Poetry - one of my favorite hotels ever!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Our stay at Poetry was at the same time as emergent lockdowns to deal with the COVID-19 situation and we felt the Poetry team went above and beyond to look after us at a time of great challenge for them.
It remains deeply appreciated.
- JohnC (10/5): - Great location with lots of cafes and restaurants nearby within walking distance.
Suite was clean and quiet, and the bed very comfortable.
No real on-site amenities, but the staff was very helpful and accomodating.
- Chunmei (10/5): Lovely and comfortable - Very nice location and could walk to many attractive places. Nice decoration and friendly staff. Very cozy rooms with balcony and dipping pool. We spent 2 comfortable nights there.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great place to stay, safe and a lot of stores nearby
- Richard (8/5): Lovely building, apartments and staff - The apartment was lovely and the staff were excellent. Great location in what felt like a very safe neighbourhood. My only small complaint would be that the towels and bed sheets weren’t as clean as Is have liked, there was clearly some makeup on all of them that they haven’t been able to wash out.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We are NZ Travel agent and this is our favourite property in NZ
- SILVIO (6/5): Under my expectation - Free bottle water?
Daily housekeeping?
Should be more attention to the guest needs.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Well equipped apartment in central but residential location, close to shops and restaurants. Beautifully presented interior, very comfy bed and helpful friendly staff.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - An absolutely fantastic property in Buenos Aires. Wonderful location and rooms, and lovely staff. Excellent concierge service who can organise outings for you before and during your stay. The honour bar at the dipping pool is a particularly nice touch. No dining options in the property itself, but many great options very close by.
- CWRG (10/5): - This is an excellent "Home away from home!". The rooms are genuinely unique (and clean, with fantastic decorations and ammenities) and the concierge service is attentive, polite and wonderfully knowledgeable!
- Dawn (10/5): - Poetry’s location was perfect in relation to what we wanted to see. We loved the decor and feel of our apartment, as well as the attentiveness of the staff. If we find ourselves visiting BA again, we would choose to stay with Poetry without hesitation.

- Verified traveler (10/5): - The receptionists at the Poetry Building are really polite and friendly. The location in Recoleta is excellent. It is a very safe area with plenty of grocery shops, cafes etc. We walked to the Microcentro downtown area in about an hour taking in many sites and different streets on the way.

Lovely property, perfect for families. Great recommendations on places to eat and visit. highly recommend.
- Frank (10/5): - Accommodations with a lot of charm in a great location. Spacious rooms. Apartment living, not a hotel with the normal amenities.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The Poetry Building was the perfect play to stay while in Buenos Aires. Conveniently located in the Recoletta area near the cemetery and great restaurants and shopping in the area. Loved that the rooms were furnished with antiques and unique details that made you feel like it was your apartment! Not your average "hotel" in the city. The front desk staff was so helpful and provided great recommendations on where to go in the city. Would highly recommend this place when staying in Buenos Aires!
- susan (10/5): A gem - Great value. Studio room very comfortable. Very nice kitchen. Roof decks nice escape in the afternoons. All the staff were really helpful and very inviting. Location - staff neighborhood and central. Highly recommend.
- Mehrnush (10/5): AMAZING! - This was the most accommodating hotel/apartment I have ever been in. I traveled alone for 3 weeks and the Poetry Building made me feel right at home. The service, cleanliness, location, and staff are absolutely superb!
- Stanislav (10/5): Lovely place to stay in Buenos Aires - Lovely place ! This time I had a duplex ( the biggest room by size ).However next time I will book a penthouse, since both penthouses have an amazing verandas. Asked for late checkout and had no problem with it. Great location and staff !

- Vicki (10/5): Great New year trip. - Fantastic residence. The staff could not be more helpful and nice. We arrived on my birthday and there was a bottle of wine and a lovely cake in the apartment for me. On New year's eve each apartment was given a bottle of fizz. The roof has a small pool with a lovely seating area with an honesty bar and snacks. The location is ideal with shops and restaurants in easy walking distance and plenty of taxis to take you farther afield. Useful booklet and map in room with helpful suggestions for your stay.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Excellent stay being at home in the mieddle of the - Everything perfcet from thé location to thé staff âme thé amenitied thank you
- Douglas (8/5): Nice in the Recoleta - Nice boutique style hotel, no breakfast but suitable places nearby.
- steve (10/5): Great and unique. - Great area to stay, and could not fault this accommodation. Good alternative to a hotel if you do not need services like a 24 hour reception, pool, etc.
- Mavilach (10/5): Top of the top! - Staying at a hotel perception is unique to each guest, because depends on taste, background or else. In my opinion Poetry is one of the best hotels i ever stay and I travel around one third of my time. The room is clean, complete if you want to cook or receive someone. The Hotel is small and feels like home, near to several great restaurants and atractions. I'll definitely will look to stay again.
- Rodrigo (10/5): Excellent Apart Hotel in a priviledged location - Poetry Building was a great place to stay. You will find everything you need such as parking, supermarket, coffee shop, bakery, kiosks, sushi, vegetarian food, stakehouses and everything in between, within walking distance. Hotel premises are very nice and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Perfect! - Very nice space with attention to every detail. In the Recoleta area which is near to shops and the famous Recoleta cemetery which is a must see.

- GJ (10/5): Unique apartment, quality fit-out - great location - A unique apartment fitted out to a high standard in a lovely old building. Great location for exploring Buenos Aires and terrific nothing is too much trouble from the staff. Highly recommended.
- Neil Morris (10/5): Home away from home - This intimate boutique hotel is a sanctuary from the bustle of the city. It became our home away from home. The professional staff had an excellent knowledge of the cafes and restaurants nearby and the many attractions of Buenos Aires, Tango clubs, museums etc.. Their friendly advice ensured we enjoyed many wonderful venues and eateries a little off the tourist trail that we would never have found without their guidance. Thank you Ken and staff for ensuring our stay was so enjoyable.
- Alfie (10/5): Good location Peaceful Place Excellent Staff - Amazing staff; warm, welcome and super friendly. The hotel is very small, cozy, intimate, with a calm atmosphere. I enjoyed the rooftop pool and the honor-system wine fridge.
Great location, great people, quiet place, stay here!
- Becky (10/5): Best hotel experience - This hotel is a perfect combination of hotel and apartment. The 1 bedroom I was in was cozy but modern and had all the necessary amenities, including wi-fi and smart TV (netflix, etc...). Another added plus was the cell phone they lend along with the room. Great to have for making my own calls in the city as my iphone was not so handy there.
The hotel is in a perfect location for walking in the Recoleta. Not too far to walk to Palermo and MALBA. Great shopping, cafes, pastry shops, take out Argentinian and public transportation right around the corner. There's also a supermarket around the block. The staff, especially Paula, were very accommodating and helpful. They all speak English very well, if needed. Maid service and laundry is available. They can also change money and provide transportation to/from the airport. Communication from them before the trip was great. There is a peaceful, "zen" quality to the place, with a small pool on the 4th floor with self-serve beer/wine/other drinks and a rooftop organic garden as well.
- Ezequiel (10/5): Great hotel, perfect location - Fast check in; super nice/helpful staff; very spacious duplex apartment nicely decorated; probably not very safe for young children as the stair and upper level had a very simple railing system with a huge gap (we traveled with 3 young kids and had to be very careful). The water heater broke but they quickly allowed us to use another bathroom on a different apartment; we were allowed a super late check out which was extremely helpful to us.
- Patrick (10/5): - A wonderful option. Very friendly staff. Great building and rooms.
- Niloofar (10/5): Home away from home - We had a pleasant time there
Very helpful staff
Home away from home
- niloofar (10/5): - We had a pleasant stay. Friendly helpful staff.
Great location, convenient and clean.
- Gustavo (10/5): Feel like home. - This is a flat, not a hotel, with beautiful apartments that makes you feel home.
- Kenneth (10/5): Close to key city areas and in lovely Recoleta.. - Delightful spot. Great value apartment hotel with truly amazing staff.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Best hotel!
- The decor, location, staff and space were excellent. I have stayed in several luxury chains (St. Regis, Ritz-Carlton) and none of them were this good.
- delia (10/5): Live like the beautiful people of BUenos Aires - Upon arrival we had been given the wrong room but this was remedied quickly. This unassuming hotel is better described as an apartment type hotel due to its large rooms and kitchenettes. The cleanliness was great and the staff were well-trained and welcoming. The decor and ambiance were incredible, so much so we had difficulty leaving the room to explore. Many try to excecute this modern / antique blend of design but most fall short. Poetry building is on point and puts much thought to every detail. A few little minor upkeep items with the hard wear n tear done by guests seem to be addressed timely. Lots of dining options nearby.
- George (10/5): Great hotel in Buenos Aires - We had a great time at the Poetry Building. The staff, Rocio, Paula, Irina and especially Ken were very helpful and all speak English well so that was a major plus for us. They provided good guidance and were very attentive to our every need.
- Angela (10/5): Great neighborhood. Great staff. Beautiful room. - Excellent experience. The bakery down the street was very convenient. Get some empanadas and make coffee in the room and just enjoy breakfast in your jammie. Awesome restaurants in the area. Don't skip Roux, one of the best meal I've had.
- ArtCapella (10/5): Special small hotel @Recoleta &outstanding service - Despite all very good comments I've read before choosing Poetry Building, I've a very positive surprise with my stay .
Everything started before our stay. We receive an email contact from the hotel team Irina and Paula, helping us with the transfer and they also offered us to buy some groceries items in advance and put it on the refrigerator of our room before our stay. As we're traveling with kids, it helped a lot !
Talking about the stay ...
The room is spacious, comfortable and very well decorated . The apartment has also a small kitchen that is really nice. And when we arrived at the room , there was a Good Malbec wine as a hotelgift
On our first day of stay it was the SuperBowl day. So the owners organized an small event for guests at the rooftop with the game project on the wall of the building besides
The team always was ready to help us on tips for good places to go, help with taxis and transfers. The rooms was always clean.
The pool on the rooftop is really a plus, specially in summer. At the roof top they've also an " honor bar" , where you can pick up soft drinks, snacks, beers and just deposit the money on a safe box .
Last but not least, as they realize that our room would not be booked at the day we leave, they just offered us a late checkout before we request it . And as our flight to Bariloche was at early evening, it helped a lot .
In resume an special gem in Recoleta area with outstanding service . For sure we'll be back there when in Buenos Aires
- Deborah (10/5): A good home away from home. - The staff here is excellent. They communicate quickly and in detail. I had many requests and they were very attentive. I stayed in a loft apartment with a friend. The architecture and the interior design shows the French influence, it reminded me of New Orleans. There is a nice lounge area on the fourth floor with a dipping pool. The roof has an exceptional working garden, a real delight! This was a great place to spend our five days in Buenos Aires. Cabs were super easy to get and, for the most part we felt centrally located for the activities we had planned.
- Timothy (10/5): Gringo in BA - Absolutely perfect.
- Alvin (8/5): In recoleta - Wonderful helpful staff, they made it for me , accommodation duplex, kitchen basic, but not gourmet cooking. Very comfortable there.
