Honestly, this was a disappointing experience. We booked the hotel based on the photos posted on their website—everything looked clean and well-maintained, which made us believe it was a good choice. Unfortunately, the reality was far from it. The room lacked even a bedside table, had no place to put anything down, and was filled with cobwebs and ants. The bathroom was tiny, poorly ventilated, and smelled unpleasant. There wasn’t a single hook for hanging clothes or even a shelf to place essentials. We raised concerns multiple times, but the owner refused to acknowledge the serious shortcomings. It’s hard to believe this place claims to be a 3-star property. After two days of discomfort, we decided to leave early. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone—especially when the online images don’t match the actual conditions. Be cautious if you’re considering staying here.
Staying at Hotel Los Troncos was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. The property is beautifully set within a lush, spacious garden that feels peaceful and private—perfect for relaxing after a day exploring Mar del Plata. The breakfast was exceptional, fresh and delicious, served personally by the kind and attentive owners who made us feel right at home. We were especially grateful that parking was included with our booking—no extra hassle or cost. The rooms are cozy and well-designed, with comfortable beds and excellent soundproofing, ensuring a restful night's sleep. What truly stood out was the warm hospitality of the owners—they went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, even offering local tips and recommendations. It’s clear they take pride in their guest experience. This isn’t just a hotel—it’s a genuine homely stay with heart. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Mar del Plata.
Hotel Covadonga is an absolutely outstanding stay, especially thanks to the owners themselves—warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful. I’ve visited with my family three times now, and every single visit has been met with the same exceptional service. The food is home-style, generous, and incredibly delicious—each meal feels like a lovingly prepared family dish. The waitstaff are a highlight: energetic, professional, and full of charm—almost like a live show! The housekeeping team is meticulous and always on top of things, keeping rooms spotless and well-organized. Front desk staff are consistently friendly and efficient, and the gentleman who’s on duty overnight goes above and beyond to help guests. We even celebrated New Year’s Eve here—dancing until 4 a.m.! The hotel brought in a DJ to keep the vibe going, which was a nice extra touch (though it might have added to their costs, it made all the difference). This place isn’t just a hotel—it feels like staying at a friend’s cozy home with a passionate team behind it. If you’re looking for warmth, great food, and unforgettable hospitality, this is the perfect choice. Highly recommended.
The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, making our stay feel personal and comfortable. The room was small but perfectly clean, with fresh linens, towels, and pillows—everything felt brand new. Water pressure was excellent, which made showers really enjoyable. Despite the compact size, the value for money was outstanding. It's just two blocks from Varese, so everything was super accessible—great for exploring the area. The breakfast was delicious and filling, and I loved the little garden space and the shared kitchen, which added a nice homey touch. Overall, an amazing experience—definitely planning to come back.
Staying at Hosteria Lucky Home was an absolute delight! The room, while compact, is thoughtfully designed with a comfortable desk perfect for working or relaxing. It’s super bright and airy, making the space feel more spacious than it actually is. The private bathroom features a great shower with strong water pressure—very refreshing. Breakfast was a highlight: fresh, varied, and delicious, with local touches that made it truly special. The neighborhood is peaceful, scenic, and safe—just a short walk to the beach and close to public transit. I highly recommend this place for travelers who value comfort, charm, and a quiet atmosphere without breaking the bank. Definitely a hidden gem worth revisiting.
Absolutely perfect stay at Hotel APM Punta Mogotes! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel right at home with their warm and genuine hospitality. The location is unbeatable—just steps away from the beach, so you can enjoy sunbathing, swimming, or just watching the waves from your balcony. The on-site restaurant offers a great variety of homemade dishes, all fresh and delicious. Everything about this place feels immaculate—from the clean, well-maintained rooms to the thoughtfully designed common areas. It’s clear that attention to detail matters here. Whether you're coming for a romantic getaway, a family vacation, or just some peace and quiet by the sea, this hotel delivers on every level. I’d give it 10 out of 10 without hesitation. A true gem in Mar del Plata!
Our stay was brief—just one night—but everything worked out perfectly. The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. We missed breakfast because we woke up a bit late, but that didn’t affect our overall experience. The location is excellent—only a 3-block walk from the lighthouse, which made exploring the area super convenient. The bedding was clean and comfortable, and the room itself felt well-maintained. The only minor note: there was no air conditioning or fan in the room, but since we stayed for such a short time, opening the window provided enough fresh air. It wasn’t an issue at all. Overall, this place offers great value for a quick stopover, and I’d definitely consider returning if I’m back in Mar del Plata.
The hotel is a bit old but very clean, which made me feel comfortable during my stay. The main downside was the lack of power outlets—only one in the bathroom, which was inconvenient. The beds were worn out and creaked loudly when lying down, making me worry they might collapse. However, the room was spacious and well-proportioned, and the quiet atmosphere meant no noise from neighbors, so it was easy to relax and sleep well. Breakfast was excellent—the staff were attentive and the options were good. Location-wise, it’s unbeatable: just a block away from the new shopping center, about three blocks to Guemes, and a 7-block walk to the beach. It's super convenient for exploring the area on foot or by public transit. Despite the minor drawbacks, I’d definitely stay here again just for the great price-to-location ratio.
I stayed at Alsina Suites in Mar del Plata with low expectations since it's a 2-star property, but the experience fell short of even that. The room we were assigned (131) was extremely hot—so much so that I requested a change, only to be told the hotel was fully booked and no other rooms were available. They explained the room was directly above the kitchen, which is why it was so warm. A fan was offered, but it did nothing to alleviate the suffocating heat. The elevator had a strong musty smell, and the building itself feels old and worn down. In the bathroom, the shower has no splash guard, so after a quick rinse, the entire floor was wet—had to mop it myself. Dinner was just a milanesa with salad; when I asked for lemon, the response was simply 'we don’t have any.' The closet had only four hangers, one of which was broken. The hotel isn’t dirty, but it’s clearly outdated and poorly maintained. There’s no sense of care or attention to detail. While it might work as a budget option if you're not picky, I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone seeking comfort or basic functionality.
Absolutely outstanding experience! The hotel is incredibly comfortable, with spacious and well-appointed rooms that made our stay truly relaxing. The breakfast was exceptional—huge variety, fresh ingredients, and delicious local touches like homemade pastries and savory sausages. It’s rare to find such a complete breakfast at this level of quality. Location is perfect: just a short walk from the beach and downtown attractions. Everything about this place felt thoughtfully designed for guest comfort and convenience. I’d highly recommend Bagu Santander Hotel to anyone visiting Mar del Plata—it’s a standout choice!
Staying at Mar del Faro was one of the highlights of my trip to Mar del Plata. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from the beach and the lively nightlife around the lighthouse area. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, making check-in and check-out smooth and flexible. I appreciated how affordable the rates were for the quality and convenience offered. The hotel truly captures the spirit of the electronic music scene here—every weekend brings a different vibe, great tunes, and an open-minded crowd. It’s easy to meet new people, make friends, and just enjoy being part of something fun and energetic. Whether you're looking for a chill beachside stay or a vibrant party atmosphere, this place delivers on both. If you’re into late-night beats, good vibes, and authentic local energy, don’t miss out. A perfect blend of comfort, culture, and connection.
Staying at Dodo Suites in Mar del Plata was a fantastic experience, especially thanks to the exceptional location—just a short walk from the beach and all the local attractions. The staff, particularly Lucas, went above and beyond with their warm and attentive service. From check-in to checkout, every interaction felt personal and genuine. The hotel offers excellent value for money—clean rooms, reliable security, and a thoughtfully curated breakfast experience at The Top Cake, a cozy little café right on-site. Their coffee is rich and aromatic, and the pastries are fresh, homemade, and absolutely delicious. It’s the perfect way to start the day. Overall, this place hits all the right notes: comfort, convenience, and charm. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Mar del Plata.
