Hotel was amazing, conveniently located in Recoleta and close to AEP airport. Our rooms were spacious and very clean. Breakfast was the highlight, sadly we were only able to enjoy one morning as our flight was early morning and had to leave before breakfast opens. I wish hotel provided packed breakfast, I requested but they asked to charge me for coffee and some pastries to be packed.
Everything about hotel is amazing. Gorgeous decor and very friendly staff. This is my favorite hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Most hotels today are too modern and boring looking. This hotel has so much character. Will definitely be staying again.
Excellent Hotel
Truly a 5 star Hotel. Beautiful old charm hotel. Service and Restaurant are excellent. Elegant rooms and extremely clean. Everything smelled amazing. Will definitely recommend and stay again!
I'm not sure that I have ever stayed in a hotel that felt as "grand" as this one (and I have stayed in many luxury hotels). Our room was fantastic (it was a Mirador junior suite; the view was outstanding, and I hear that you really want to stay in the recently-renovated area of the hotel). The pool was relaxing, rooftop bar great, and breakfast the best I've ever had. Next time I come back to BA, I won't stay anywhere else.
We stayed in this hotel for over a week and the service was top notch. Loved the rooftop deck, the dining options in and around the hotel, as well as the staff. I loved everything about the hotel and would highly recommend it.

Alvear Palace Buenos Aires supposedly the best hotel in BA looks grand but dated, spa area downstairs away from the main pool. The terrace bar only opened at certain times. Rooms are tired, by far one of the most dated bathrooms I’ve stayed in for a long time. Location in Recoleta is good but that’s the only positive I have there are many better options in Buenos Aires 6/10. I’d recommend hotel Casa Lucia, or Hotel Mio if you want to be in Recoleta modern rooms, great breakfast a more relaxing hotel.
