“Handy hotel with solid facilities and an unbeatable location right next to Saenz Pena subway station. My time there was enjoyable.”

8.7Verified guest

“I slept well in a double room with a double bed. Central heating, a personal safe, and multi-channel TV were nice extras. The central position put me near many restaurants, including the best steak house in Argentina, Parrilla Pena on Rodriguez Pena street, between Viamonte and Tucuman, plus shops and the city center. I also tried brunch at Konu Bar nearby.”

“The shower had strong water pressure, a real blast, and hot water came on demand—perfect after a cold night.”
