Buena estadía!

El hotel es super cómodo y ofrece lo que puedes necesitar para una buena estadía en Buenos Aires. Gonzalo y Denisse estuvieron siempre pendientes de que nuestra experiencia fuera la mejor. Incluso si se presenta algún inconveniente ellos hacen lo mejor para solucionarlo y hacerte sentir en casa. Disfrutamos mucho de los tours recomendados por el hotel y del Show de Tango La Ventana. Nos vamos enamoradas de Argentina 💙

The staff and service at this hotel were amazing. The staff was very professional and friendly, more importantly, they were very attentive when we called. My only pet peeve was the air conditioning, although it seems you control it in the room, you really don't. We called a few times due to the lack of a/c to find out that they actually control it from the reception area at the lobby. Also, you had to run the hot water for about 3 minutes for it to kick-in - quite a waste of water and time.
