Design cE - Hotel Boutique de Diseño
This hotel truly exceeded my expectations. Located in the heart of Recoleta, it's perfectly positioned for exploring Buenos Aires—just a short walk to museums, cafes, and shopping. The room was spacious with a beautiful view, and the large, soft bed made for a restful night’s sleep. The bedding and towels were high-quality, adding to the comfort. The bathroom was modern and generous in size, with a wide bathtub (though it might be tight for guests with mobility challenges). Breakfast was decent with good quality items, though the variety could have been better. Overall, the ambiance, location, and attention to detail make this a standout choice. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to fellow travelers.
Live Soho Boutique & Apartments Palermo Hollywood
Staying at Live Soho Boutique & Apartments Palermo Hollywood in Buenos Aires was mostly a positive experience. The unit was modern, spacious, and incredibly clean—everything felt fresh and well-maintained. Check-in was super simple: just watch a short video sent by the team, no front desk hassle. I really appreciated the half-bathroom setup and the large TV, though it’s worth noting there’s no cable—just Netflix, which worked fine for us. The balcony was a highlight, offering great views and a perfect spot to relax. Location-wise, it’s in the heart of Palermo, close enough to everything without being too noisy. Cleanliness was outstanding, and the overall vibe felt safe and welcoming. That said, there were a few downsides. One major issue was that one of the four sliding doors wouldn’t lock properly—a real security concern. I reported it right away. We chose this place partly because of the laundry machine, but we soon found out there was only one machine on our floor (the top floor), shared among multiple units. It wasn’t working well—after two hours trying to dry our clothes, someone else came in, removed our laundry, and put theirs in. I had to confront them before they’d let me finish drying mine. In the end, we had to bring the damp clothes inside and spread them over kitchen chairs to air-dry. Definitely not ideal. If you don’t mind sharing laundry facilities or are okay with some noise from others using machines (especially if you’re on the 9th floor), then it’s manageable. Overall, despite these issues, the apartment is still a strong choice. The quality of the space, cleanliness, and location make it worth considering again. Just come prepared with earplugs and a bit of patience.

This boutique apartment offers an unbeatable mix of comfort, style, and value. Highly recommend it for anyone visiting Palermo Soho!
Apassionata Tango Hotel
The overall experience was fantastic, though the check-in moment wasn’t ideal. I arrived at 4 PM for check-in, but no staff were available to open the door—no one around at all. There were some explanations afterward, but that initial delay left a less-than-perfect first impression. However, everything else more than made up for it. The room was stunning—elegant, stylish, and full of character. Every detail felt intentional and well thought out. Carlos, the staff member I interacted with, was incredibly kind and helpful, making the stay feel warm and personal. The hotel’s location is excellent—just a short walk from the main attractions and public transport. It’s clear this place puts effort into creating a memorable experience. Despite the slow start, I’d absolutely stay here again.

Staying at Duque Hotel Boutique & Spa was an absolute delight. The location is perfect—just steps away from major transport routes and city attractions, making everything super accessible. The staff went above and beyond with their warm, attentive service—always smiling, helpful, and genuinely welcoming. The only small suggestions would be to improve the quality of the orange juice at breakfast and include disposable tissues (Kleenex) in the room along with a larger trash can. Everything else was outstanding. This hotel truly delivers on comfort, convenience, and charm. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Buenos Aires—excellent value and a standout experience!

Telmho Hotel Boutique
I stayed at Telmho Hotel Boutique during a layover in Buenos Aires and couldn’t be happier with the value for money. The building has a vintage charm, but the interior has been recently renovated—clean, modern, and comfortably furnished, perfectly matching a 3-star standard. What really stood out was the exceptional staff service. Since my flight arrived at AEP at 11:40 PM, I emailed ahead to request a late check-in, and the team not only acknowledged it but were waiting for me upon arrival. They made the whole process seamless and stress-free. The location is also convenient for airport transfers, and the overall atmosphere felt warm and welcoming.
