I stayed at Mundial last year and everything was OK. Shower was good, beds OK, old TV (but who wants to watch TV in a city like Buenos Aires, where you have tons of things to do), excellent breakfast. Only one elevator working, which was pretty bad. Receptionists were not friendly. Good value for money. Near everything. All in all,... More

We arrived here with some trepidation after booking and then reading recent reviews. However we were pleasantly surprised. It is true that the hotel is in need of some work - the rooms are large, clean and light but need finishing touches and some rooms need new carpets etc. Hopefully the new owners, a hotel chain based in Barcelona, will...

We stayed there for one night. The bed sheets had a really disgusting stain and I really don't want to mention what type of stain was. When I called reception about it they said that no one else was able to give us new sheets as they were pretty busy and didn't have available staff so that we had to... More

Great central place in the downtown area of Buenos Aires. OK rooms, not too big though, but big enough. Beautiful bright colors and overall a charming building. Good breakfast according to argentine standards.

We stayed here a couple of years ago and we were very pleased then with our choice. It had recently been renovated and so we followed our own advice and decided to stay here again. I have to say it has certainly deteriorated since then. The room we were given was quite grim and stank of cigarette smoke despite being... More

There are many hotels in Buenos Aires. I guess it is hard to make a choice. We stayed here it was just fine. It is centrally placed: you can walk to the historic center or take just any bus or subway to somewhere else in the city. The rooms where kind of small. The doors where old (so they didn't... More

I could walk to the Obelisc in like 10 minutes, the hotel is located on the same road as the court hose type building and there is an original statue of Rodin's thinker right by it. here is a Metro/Subway station just...

The hotel is very centrally located in one of the busiest streets in Buenos Aires. Nice cafes , restaurants are all around the hotel. Public transportation is easily accesible and the most important sights of the city is walking distance (2-3 km) from the hotel. It is very cool and classic building. Rooms have nice balcony with a nice view.... More

I had a nice one-night stay in this place. I would consider it a nice classic building with modern twist - classical architecture with high ceilings and French balconies, but rooms with bold modern colouring. The location is good at the main street, with places for dining nearby. Service was efficient - they even offered early bird breakfast as I... More
