Grand King Hotel, Buenos Aires

Hotel Madero Not the best Location In Buenos Aries

Advantages: Waterfront ,Modern , walking Distance to Cafe and Restaurants
Disadvantages: Characterless Area , with a lot of Modern looking Apartments and Hotels

I visit Argentina a lot , this Area has been re built from Old Warehouses and Docklands with some nice Restaurants and New Hotels. It is by the waterfront and compared to the rest of Buenos Aries is a bit without Character something missing , Clinical even !. The best area to stay is Recoleta. The Hotel itself is a Sofitel and is very good , it is an upmarket Hotel but for the price you pay you can get better and Cheaper in a nicer area , (I have stayed in 3 star hotels here that give just as good a service and rooms are equally as nice) I could not fault the rooms or the service, it is Modern /Contemporary . Restaurants good but you can eat better and Cheaper in the restaurants around Town. Clothes are cheaper than Europe you can get some good deals on Designer makes You can walk from here to shops etc but it is a bit too far ...

Review of Hotel Madero, Buenos Aires

Comfort in Buenos Aires

Advantages: Friendly staff, clean rooms
Disadvantages: Small lift, awful scrambled eggs

The Kempinski Hotel is ideally located in the centre of Buenos Aires. You are within walking distance of numerous cafes, restaurants, shops, the metro, bus stops and many of the main attractions. It is a small boutique hotel with friendly, competent staff who are happy to help you out. We stayed in the hotel for 6 nights and were very happy with the place. The hotel, is like many others in BA tall and narrow - the lifts barely fit two people, so let the porter take your suitcases up to your room - it is far easier than getting stuck doing it yourself. The rooms are spacious and comfortable - you get a sofa and an en-suite as well as a huge double bed. The room is air conditioned - a must in summer as it is so hot outside. There is cable TV with lots of random English speaking channels - so you can watch movies in English ...

Review of Park Central Kempinski Hotel, Buenos Aires

Restaurants and Nightclubs in Buenos Aires

Advantages: The best meat in the world!
Disadvantages: You may need a laxative after all that red meat!

Restaurants in Buenos Aires. If you go to Argentina, you know that the word vegetarian is unknown in there. so lets face it, you must try meat, so taste, so mmmmm... so here are a few tips, if you are near Recoleta visiting Evita's (Eva Peron) grave you can walk along Junin Street where you can find a finest option of food, so instead of choosing the sports cafe, or the Henry j. beans ( yes! Argentina got them too!) You can give it a try in Cabaña Las Lilas restaurant. It is posh and not for a low budget (17 pounds per persons not wine incl.)However, you have to treat yourself in a place like this! The specialty is tenderloin that in spanish is lomo, but don't worry, the menu is in english too. But what happen if you are visiting the docks? Ah! Here you can can invite yourself to Hereford and try their taste ribs (asado) or if ...
