Hotel berhampiran Bioparque TEMAIKEN, Buenos Aires

We just spent a week in Buenos Aires and this hotel was a pleasant surprise. Our room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. The water pressure in the shower was terrific. The room was a bit small but still quite manageable. Bring slippers, as the tile floor in the room gets quite cold. I'd also recommend you bring a few coat hangars with you, the wire type you get from your dry cleaners that you don't mind leaving behind. There isn't a hairdryer in the room but you can get one from the front desk. You can also get an iron and ironing board from housekeeping if you need them. There is no U.S. type electrical outlet in the room but there is one European type. The included breakfast was adequate--pastries, cold cuts, dry cereal, cheese, coffee, tea, and fresh-squeezed orange juice. If you arrive early, the front desk will store your luggage for you until your room is ready. There are plenty of attractions within walking distance of the hotel, as well as excellent restaurants. Just a block away is a small, family-run place called Viejo Alsina that features excellent food at a very inexpensive price. The famous San Telmo Market is an easy half-,mile walk. For some reason Uber cannot pick you up or drop you off near the hotel. It's about a quarter-mile to the nearest pickup point. However, the car service (Talixo) we booked to and from the airport was allowed to pull up at the lobby door. That was $74 round trip. All in all, this hotel was perfect and the price was a bargain ($321 for the week). That may have been the winter rate, but winter is the best time to visit BA.

Fui para o Hotel Parada extremamente preocupada em virtude das avaliações negativas, mas arrisquei pelo preço baixo e pela localização. Vi avaliações que relataram questões com limpezas e precariedade no serviço de quarto, consequentemente, já viajei com lençóis e toalhas na mala. No entanto, fiquei seis dias no Hotel e, honestamente, não vi nada das falhas apontadas pelos demais hóspedes, talvez o Hotel tenha tentado melhorar. Quartos confortáveis, limpos, não houve barulho noturno, tampouco sol entrando nos quartos. Atendentes prestativos que indicaram que poderíamos pedir toalhas novas sempre que quiséssemos. Os banheiros não possuem box, mas quem já viajou para outros países sabe bem que a questão do box é mais uma tradição brasileira, e não foi um fato que fez com que o banheiro fosse desconfortável. A localização é ótima, com duas agências da Western Union próximas, muitas padarias para tomar café. Me senti na obrigação de fazer esta avaliação pois, dentre tantas avaliações negativas, os dois quartos ocupados por mim, meu companheiro, e nossas mães, não corresponderam às críticas tecidas nas avaliações.

First I'd like to say that the young man who assisted me when I arrived late at night at Up Tribeca was entirely professional and courteous with me, even though I checked out almost immediately after checking in. So: I initially booked three nights at Up Tribeca because the reviews for the hotel were all positive; however, the hotel ”ambience” is entirely artificial and - to put bluntly - weird. All the rooms are centered around an open-air courtyard (btw, that courtyard is the only fresh air in the hotel), and because I checked-in late at night, I had a very hard time trying to find my room number while walking the hallway along the courtyard, as it was lit by a few neon lights that (I guess) gave off a cool vibe, but no actual light. Because it was so dark, I mistook the wrong room for mine and kept trying to open the door with my card, until I noticed (again, hard to see with no light!) the ”do not disturb” sign on the door handle (sorry to whomever might have woken up to me trying to open their door.) I then continued down the dark hallway to my correct room, and when I opened the door, I was greeted to a completely windowless box of a room that reeked of synthetic air-freshener, making it smell like I just walked into a Zara Home Furnishing store. The smell was suffocating, and of course there was no way to open a window to get rid of it because no window existed. If you've ever watched the Apple Tv show ”Severance,” then you'll get the kind of atmosphere this room had: it felt completely claustrophobic and dystopic. I didn't spend more than thirty seconds in that room before I grabbed my suitcase and went down to the front desk, requesting a different room that had a window, only to be informed none of the rooms have windows. At that point, I asked him to call me a taxi, and I left for another hotel. To sum up: if you don't care that you're staying in a windowless box that smells like a home furnishing store in the local mall, you'll be fine at Up Tribeca. Otherwise, I would strongly recommend you book elsewhere.

Great little hotel. Ok the cons. Two blocks too much into an area that might not feel right with travelers that are not use to big cities like NYC. While the room was clean and well appointed the shower could use a little love. And lastly no coffee in the room. The pros. Great staff. Water bottles and drinks in the room. Room is big and comfortable. The price is right and the location close enough to key areas. Breakfast was good just what you need nothing fancy. I would def stay here again. I would recommend to people as well.

The hotel is well located, which makes it easy to get around various tourist places, such as Recoleta and Casa Rosada, in addition to having good infrastructure around, with restaurants, bars, etc. The hotel itself is quite old, with rooms dating back a few decades, but overall, for the price paid, it is a good hotel. The staff is attentive and friendly, and the cleanliness of the hotel is another good point.

I've been staying at Air B& B's since 2017, being La Habana; Cuba my first experience ever so Trip Advisor (finally) is great to see I can now review Air BB's and by the way just a ”constructive” criticism more ”categories” should be added: trains, airlines etc. (just saying). Here we go: As a native Argentinean I go home at least once a year to visit my family, obvioulsy 90 % of the time to & from Buenos Aires, not I'm not from B.A. (Buenos Aires) but I either fly to or from to continue my trip to my hometown. My last time there I stayed at Top Rentals Buenos Aires, my very first time using this company and I must say I was really impressed ! The property is located on Esmeralda Street so centrally located is within walking distance pretty much anywhere downtown, super safe, always be mindful of your surroundings like everywhere else and do please ( can't type all caps) but NO flashy jewelry or nothing fancy while on the streets. The check in process is located in one of the upper floors of the Building Complex, but upon arrival the security officer at the lobby will give you specific instructions where to go. Rooms are so spacious, clean, beautiful views of the area and a small balcony to sip your malbecs, with the River Plate on the background. The staff is super attentive, apartments comes with toiletries, towels, and utensils for cooking, but really ?? You are in The Paris of South America so who will want to cook ? I couldn’t use the pool too cold for me. I highly recommend it you won't regret it, so good this place is that with my luck!!! One of the South American Presidents (don't know whom) decided to stay in that same building at the time of my visit, no wonder why there were so many police and security so if this place is good enough for a president of country I'm guessing is good enough for us to!! (lol) You be the judge and please let me know. for more photos and details feel free to follow me at: @la_hormiguitaviajera on instagram. Please be safe ! PS: let me know your feedback out of curiosity

My wife and I had a wonderful 6 night stay in this hotel. The room was very spacious and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed the breakfast. The location of the hotel is great. Walking distance to quite a few bars, restaurants, and shops. A bit further away from some of the scenic areas of the city, however the public transport and taxis are very good value for money. I thoroughly recommend this hotel. It made our stay in Buenos Aires extra special.

Primer viaje de 6 amigas, excelente atención, desayuno exquisito, personal muy cordial y dispuesto a contestar nuestras consultas y solicitudes, excelente ubicación, pasamos 5 días fantasticos, mil gracias a cada uno de los integrantes del hotel por su amabilidad y preocupación. Gracias Totales Pamela, Ana María, Silvana, Paola, Pame y Vicky

Stayed here one night pre-Antartic cruise and it was organised by the cruise company. The rooms look dated and some of the fittings, particularly in the bathroom needs replacing since they were broken. For the price point, it was disappointing if I had paid myself. Staff were friendly at check in and check out. Personally I would choose a different hotel unless you need to be in recoleta specifically

These was very useful for us because we needed to catch an early flight from EZE
