Buenos Aires Hotel Tips by missbutler

The city views are better than the river views. When they ask if you want the Herald, they mean the Miami Herald, not the Int'l Herald Tribune. The concierges are not the nicest -- the doormen are. The pool is great -- and make sure you take a look around the Mansionette -- where Madonna stayed while filming "Evita"

Unique Qualities: If you can afford to splurge for the "executive" floor, the salon for breakfast and cocktails (both complimentary) is beautiful. Also a great place to regroup and enjoy a cup of afternoon tea.

If you go onto their website (www.alojargentina.com) you will see a huge variety of furnished apartmetns available for one or more weeks, organized by size and location. We stayed in a beautiful building in the best neighborhood, could eat meals in, and enjoy more room -- all for about USD $35 per person per night (and that was a high-end property!)

Unique Qualities: you can pick your price range and neighborhood. Better if you've been to BsAs before, or feel like you won't need the services a hotel offers (restaurant, maid service, concierge)
