Hotels near Barrios De Escobar, Buenos Aires

One of the poorest experiences in a so-called Luxury Property I’ve ever had. And I have had plenty, I hold status with various Hotel Chains, Titanium Elite with Marriott amongst others. We were returning to Uruguay From Buenos Aires and were needing a 1 night stay in the Campana Area to have a good Night Rest and maybe some Spa Time. Since none of our preferred Hotel Chains had a local presence I decided to explore one of my minor Loyalty Programs, Accor. That’s how we came to know this Sofitel Property. Once arrived at the locations my wife and I were a bit confused. The Setting was not very Hotel like. At the gate we found out that we were entering a gated community. This was not mentioned on the Accor website. If I had known that I would not have stayed there. I’ve nothing against it but I’m familiar with the urban and natural design of these areas and It’s not my cup of tea if on Holiday. Anyway, once at the gate we had to wait for several minutes to get access even after providing ou ID’s to the security guards. They would not let us through until the property confirmed that we were on the reservation list. Once the Hotel finally confirmed we were asked to open our trunk for inspection before accessing the community. This was a very hostile situation. I’ve had better experiences with TSA. At check-in I expressed my discontent with the front desk employee who did not address the issue nor offered any kind of apology. I’m just starting to assume things are done this way at this hotel, a little less Hospitality and little more rudeness. After the check-in process was fulfilled credit card swiped forms filled out we were “reminded” that check-out was at Noon sharp and that we would not be welcome to stay at the premises afterwards. ***, really? No lunch?, No visit to the garden? No possibility to leave luggage until the afternoon for a quick visit to the city nearby? No, you are requested to LEAVE at noon. Well, that was it for us. We no longer felt welcome there. We decided to get some work done and have dinner before going to bed and leave the next morning right after Breakfast. The room was good. Although, I had requested and paid for a King Size bed, we were given two twin beds instead. It’s spacious with a modern design. The TV is rather small considering the size of the room. The Bath Room is comfortable, it has a separate walk in shower and bath tub. There’s also a nice and spacious balcony without comfortable furniture. That is not a big issue as you don’t want to stay there too long. There’s a highway nearby and after a few minutes the sound off traffic gets on your nerves. We ordered Simple room service dishes. Steak with mashed potatoes and a Burger with fries. Steak was acceptable served a bit cold though. Burger was not very good. Bun was to dry and patty overcooked. No sauce hence Superdry experience. What caught my eye was that the room service Menu did not include any clear options for Vegetarians/Vegans and/or persons with Aller

My parents traveled with friends and they had problems with the room numbers, since there were people in the rooms. Someone even entered in the morning with a code and they were inside. They really felt very unsafe.

Clean and hygienic, very close to the city center, convenient transportation, hotel facilities are very new, service is very good, need to book long time in advance, often full house, not easy to book.

Stanza ampia, moderna e comoda in zona Palermo. Ben collegato con la metro (a circa 400mt). Lo staff della reception è semplicemente fantastico, ci ha accolto dandoci informazioni utili e tenendoci i bagagli in custodia prima del check-in. Unica nota un pò negativa: mancano in stanza bollitore con thè/caffè.

This was a fantastic hotel! It's a modern, sleek, and comfortable hotel in the upbeat, bustling, active, and hipster neighborhood of Palermo. The location is a short walk to great restaurants, bars, and shopping, and is a very safe area. The beds are comfortable and the shower is warm with fantastic water pressure and great toiletries as well. The hotel staff is beyond helpful and attentive and the hotel restaurant/bar is fantastic with a great breakfast selection and a very good bar for the evening.

The good: Great location with well appointed and spacious rooms. The 24hr reception has helpful staff - Hugo was fantastic which made us feel welcomed and was a great start to our 5 week trip. There's a pool I didn't get to as it closes at 10pm before we got back from dinner. and on that note, check out the Palermo area and especially De Lo Jesus for a great authentic meal, within walking distance. The bad: The small bathroom with a shower-bath combo. The bath was very narrow so it was difficult to get in and out of. But very manageable for a night or two. The ugly: Nothing ugly about this place. But we did have a bad Uber driver experience when our 6 minute pick up turned into more than 30 minutes. So be Uber-wary.

”My wife and I really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful building. The location is very good, close to everything in Palermo but without being in the middle of the noise that bars and restaurants usually cause. We loved the speed with which they arrived to us the access to the building - a QR! - and to the apartment and how they made sure that we were well throughout the stay. A very satisfactory experience, which we will surely repeat in a short time.

My first time to Argentina and my first hotel here could not have been better. Super super clean, well stocked (working hair dryer, microwave, cold fridge, HOT water, great A/C, comfy bed, lots of shelves and closet space) and super safe. The door into the hotel is locked and appears to be manned all the time. Large closet, lots of shelves, drawers & cabinets, and all the outlets work. It seems to be a mostly housing community with lots of small shops at the street level. I had one of the lower priced rooms and it still had a balcony. It was fun watching all the street life... There are so many trees... many parks close by... and this area seems super dog friendly. I am staying here again at the end of my trip to Patagonia. The staff are very responsive, and their English is definitely WAY better than my Spanish, so it is easy to communicate. I am not a bar-goer, so staying in a big chain-type hotel is not my style. When the sliding door is shut the street noise is not very loud, and at night very quiet. But being in a city, it's exactly what I suspected. One can hear a little bit of noise in the hallway, but only when the staff are cleaning in the early afternoon -- no more so than hotels in which I've stayed in the USA, however. I have heard no partying or loud guests. Taking a cab to downtown Buenos Aires was easy, and it seemed pretty close by. There are so many restaurants, cafes and shopping for necessities within a stone's throw that I was very happy here. :)

The worst I’ve ever been treated by hotel staff in my entire life. The agency made a mistake and booked the wrong room. Instead of being patient and helping resolve the issue, the small angry man at the reception named Maximiliano Schiaffino pounded his fists on my door demanding that I leave the room every 10 min. Each time showing me another copy of the incorrect reservation (as if it was my fault lol). He slammed the door shut on me, lost his temper, and banged on the door several times. Hotel Arenales please hire people with patience without aggresive tendencies. Problems happen with bookings and this is not how the client should be treated. I was planning on staying over a week here but because of this incident I was forced to cancel early and leave. **Note: The hotel has no pool! The photo on goggle is incorrent, and the standard room is the size of a tiny closet.
