Hotels Near VERDULERIA LA GRAN BARATA in Buenos Aires

After coming off from a long haul flight of 16+ hours, I needed to decompress… I had to get rid of my puffiness before headed to see my clients! no one wants to be distracted by a puffer fish- Look while chatting! Valentina at the front desk was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and emphatic … she knew exactly what service to recommend and which theraphist would suit my (let’s get this lady unpuffed -needs) I was paired with Maria who was fantastic, I had the Fire & Ice 90 min service (hot stone body massage and cooler lymphatic drainage facial) which helps with circulation, jet lag and fluid congestion from being so many hours on a flight. My body and skin felt amazing for the entire length of my trip and I have to give credit to Maria’s extensive knowledge on draining fluid naturally out of your body via massage! Thank you ladies for going above and beyond to care for your guest! GRACIAS! The Space: Clean, welcoming and modern pool Sauna no wet steam room …

The location is excellent, the hotel is well-equipped with facilities, and the breakfast is good. There is also a j gym with a nice view on the ninth floor and a swimming pool.

Nice location with very clean rooms, most the places that we wanted to visit. 10-20min walking distance, for longer trips we used Uber . But best part during our visit was the front desk staff, Zaria and Nestor was exceptionally nice and super professional. Zaire made sure that we have best possible experience during our visit in hotel and even giving us tips where to go and what to visit . Overall A++ Thank you .

Zafa, just that. I don't like the area. The environment for saying so also not ( but that's something personal) You are charged 2000 cleaning (it is done when you retire) dare someone pay before me for the cleaning of which would be my room ... charge you are charged but cleaning doesn't believe.. When the table arrived, it had cheddar cheese sleeves that were viewed at simple sight ... and it was not the only thing ...so I would prefer you to charge the price more expensive, but don't tell me that those 2000 are for cleaning, because I assure you that they don't spend it. It would not call it ”apartments” as his name says, because the only thing you have is a microwave, a table-based bath with storage space and a coffee shop ...for the rest is a hotel, Neither frigobar has (I knew it before I went, but I emphasize it because I think it's something basic that's in any hotel, nor talk then that should be in a apartment) they offer you to leave what you need in the labeled reception, thank you, but it's something completely uncomfortable. I liked the terrace with pool, we didn't get in because it was fresh but it looked very nice that part. The air conditioning had to shut off because noise could not be slept at night (Room 601) Please correct the check-out time that at Start says it is at 11 a.m. ( figure on the voucher) But they called me from reception 9.30 to tell me that at 10 am I had to retire ( they never called me in any accommodation, it was not really pleasant as well as not to tell you that if you return the towels with sleeves you will charge them, These are implicit things is not good that they are stressing it and less when I arrived in the room and I saw that the acclamed towels were not worth nor 2 weights and were not very thick as we say)

What a Disappointment the Faena Hotel is. NOT a 5 star hotel it once was. The bed in our room was more than 10 years over due for a change. The most uncomfortable bed I’ve slept in a “5 star hotel” . The staff is rude if you are not Argentinian, typical for of a hotel that pays the staff practically nothing and a place no one tips. The bartender at the library was totally focused on taking to the ****** at the bar and totally ignored us sitting next to this loud obnoxious couple. The pool was freezing cold. Why can’t they heat the pool to take the chill off so you can enjoy the pool. The wait staff at the pool was slow to deliver the drinks or food at the pool and often confused the orders or never returned to deliver the correct order. The man at the checkin Juan Pablo is joke. He gave wrong information about the hotels offerings for the valentines dinners. I found out the evening of valentines that there was a Tango Show with dinner that included meat choices that the other restaurants were not offering. The Tango show and dinner was offered for $270 USD per person. I was offered $135 USD pp at the door or 48,000 Argentinian pesos which equals $270 pp. it had to do with the blue dollar. While I was negotiating with the man at the entrance to the Tango show I saw food coming from the Mercado restaurant through the lobby long lobby filled with people uncovered, how disgusting. We declined to eat or see the show. Do yourself a favor and stay at the holiday inn and save yourself a lot of money and aggravation and most of all disappoint in once was a fabulous hotel. They tell you that the hotel is full as well as the restaurants. That’s a lie, nothing at Faena is full except the arrogance they dish out.

The hotel is well located, the rooms are clean and the facilities are in good condition. I had a problem at the arrival because I reserved a room for 4 people for the trip and at the hotel they told me that it was not allowed to stay 4 people in one room. The attendants gave me the option of booking 2 rooms or cancelling the accommodation. Now imagine: where would I go with my family at 20:00 in another country? I was quite angry with that. I had to book two rooms, pay more and spend: when I arrived in the first room I had two king beds, i.e. I and my family would be in one room without problems. Trip should notice this before selling accommodation so that the customer is not harmed.

We just spent a week in Buenos Aires and this hotel was a pleasant surprise. Our room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. The water pressure in the shower was terrific. The room was a bit small but still quite manageable. Bring slippers, as the tile floor in the room gets quite cold. I'd also recommend you bring a few coat hangars with you, the wire type you get from your dry cleaners that you don't mind leaving behind. There isn't a hairdryer in the room but you can get one from the front desk. You can also get an iron and ironing board from housekeeping if you need them. There is no U.S. type electrical outlet in the room but there is one European type. The included breakfast was adequate--pastries, cold cuts, dry cereal, cheese, coffee, tea, and fresh-squeezed orange juice. If you arrive early, the front desk will store your luggage for you until your room is ready. There are plenty of attractions within walking distance of the hotel, as well as excellent restaurants. Just a block away is a small, family-run place called Viejo Alsina that features excellent food at a very inexpensive price. The famous San Telmo Market is an easy half-,mile walk. For some reason Uber cannot pick you up or drop you off near the hotel. It's about a quarter-mile to the nearest pickup point. However, the car service (Talixo) we booked to and from the airport was allowed to pull up at the lobby door. That was $74 round trip. All in all, this hotel was perfect and the price was a bargain ($321 for the week). That may have been the winter rate, but winter is the best time to visit BA.

Terrific property, service and amenities. Suites are lovely, so is The Club Floor. Breakfast room downstairs is fulsome and the space tranquil. Can’t beat the service from Concierges Christian and Pablo, Butler Nelson (supremely professional guys who have worked there for years/decades) the bellman and housekeeping teams also are fantastic. Twice over the course of seven nights I had an small problem in my room and the maintenance team was there in 10-15 minutes to quickly rectify. Having first visited about 20 years ago and returned several times, this property continues to be very well managed and operated. Kudos to the GM and the entire Intercon BA team. As an aside, two extraordinary evenings spent dining (again) at Don Julio and at Aramburu (recommended by Christian)

Be mindful of the address of the hotel being at Tacuarí 243, as the safari map took me 40 minutes out of the way to another location also called Design Suites. For $120 a night I don't think the experience could have been better. I am a walker so for me the location was great but also easy access to all the subway lines. The decor is contemporary, and the establishment clean. The room was large and quiet with a fridge and a strong shower with a jet stream - massage bathtub. There is also a whirlpool and sauna downstairs. (There was no coffee machine in the room.) The breakfast was adequate, and the gym was large and well equipped.

Excellent hotel, very good facilities, very complete breakfast, all very comfortable.
