Amazing Two-Story Suite

Decadent Breakfast Choices

The breakfast served was a good feast! It included a variety of Argentine treats like medialunas, fresh fruit salad, and delicious pastries. The yogurt and homemade fruit salad were particularly refreshing. I appreciated that the breakfast area was spacious, allowing me to enjoy my meal in comfort. I even managed to indulge in some traditional poached eggs with toast while sipping on locally sourced coffee—everything was just fabulous.

Unique Museum Experience

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that the hotel has a small museum in the basement dedicated to the history of Buenos Aires. The displays were fascinating and took me back in time, showcasing artifacts from the early 1900s. It added a unique touch of culture to my stay. I spent a lovely afternoon exploring the exhibits, making it not only a resting place but also an enriching experience full of learning.

I discovered a true gem during my stay at this hotel! The vintage decor throughout the property really gives it a unique charm, making every corner Instagram-worthy. The location couldn't be better, just a short walk from major attractions and the bustling 9 de Julio boulevard. Although the staff was not as welcoming upon my late-night arrival, the comfortable suite made me feel right at home. However, I did have some issues with the air conditioning and noise levels, which brought down the overall experience a notch.
