Buenos Aires hotels in Balvanera

great breakfast, location, room size, generaly very clean, jacuzzi.

paying for internet, the dining room staff

The cleanliness.

We were on a 3 weeks trip around ARG and stayed at 6 different hotels. The Apart Hotel was one of the worst experiences we had, all because of the frontdesk staff. They were extremely cold, military-like and not willing to make you feel welcome in any way. There was no conversation, zero eye contact during the whole stay (It was traumatising to walk in or out the hotel as they don't look at you) and we were very disappointed with the whole experience. It was also the only hotel out of the 6 where we had to pay at check-in. Expect lots of noise due to rooms rented to over-excited herds of pre-teenagers or families with children ! Expect unjustified increase of price if you decide to change your reservation!!

Nice location, nice and friendly staff.

Swimming pool and jacuzzi have been not in use and rather dirty (no pump working and a water in the pool had a bad appearance like not filtered for long time). Sauna closed at 2100 (means not available after arrival in hotel in the evening). The price was higher than in some similar hotels without above facilities, but we accepted it and finaly have not used anyway.

I stayed at the Samiento Palace Hotel from 04/11/10 - 19/11/10. The hotel is very much a 3 star hotel. However its location is ideal for shopping and if like me you want to tango as it is walking distance to 5 - 7 milongas.

The bedroom was very small and the bathroom was too small for an adult to use. I could not use the wash basin as it was too small. There was no fride or coffee facilities in the bedroom.

I didn't like the hotel, the cleanliness of my room was terrible.

The hotel is a boutique style with high ceilings and paintings on walls.

I was given a room on the street side and my window did not close properly and there was a lot of noise outside during the early morning so I did not sleep well. I made a collect call to home but was charged a large amount for the local dial out and this was not clear in their information book. The hotel´s exchange rate from USD to Argentinian pesos was higher than it should have been.

Other than the reservation issue the staff was ok

The hotel staff didn't accept my reservation, internet barely functioning, hot water stopped working for several hours, the rooms are too old and poorly maintained

The location was very central and close to a lot of points of interest in the city. Breakfast was not gourmet-style but nevertheless adequate.

The elevator was so noisy that it appeared to be in the room. Very limited to no knowledge of English of the hotel staff. Extra 21% vat was charged if room was paid with credit card but it could be that this is standard to every hotel in buenos aires?

Nice design and good location.

Room was overlooking the Tucuman street and it was noisy-specially at night.Traffic,people talking & dogs barking.

Confort, location, good staff.

I have stayed in this hotel in the past and i can say there´s one thing that was not so good as it used to be: breakfast. In the past there were more options to choose from in breakfast.

Nice people at the reception desk

We stayed 3 persons in one room and the third bed could have been better.

Nice breakfast, spacious room

The location is not very good, about 10 blocks away from the main street

The hotel is situated in not such a good neighbourhood.ven though the room was clean its was small and extremely noisy. Furniture is old and the floors are covered with staiins. We cancelled the planned 2 nd stay in this hotel

Noisy and bad neighbourhood

room service and staff

rooms were not like the pictures

The rooms were clean and modern, the staff was very friendly, The restaurant attached to the hotel offered good food for a fair price.

The pictures on their website were more promising than the reality
