Lounge area looks nice enough but there's not much else impressive about this hotel. Found it to be a bit cold, room only had one outlet. No view from the window to allow natural light into the room. TV was poor quality. Killed a few bugs but not many. Wallpaper peeling from the corners in the room. Water emerged from the drain in the bathroom when you empty the bathtub. The WiFi went down a few times too including one tie for 12 hours (They had to restart the router). Bed was nice enough as was the the fridge but that was it. If you need somewhere basic & relatively cheap to stay in Buenos Aires for a few days this place will be fine but for a longer stay on a vacation I recommend selecting somewhere else.

The reception area does not reflect the rest of the hotel. The place is worn out and badly in need of maintenance and/or refresh. Very noisy. The bath was peeling, there were wooden patches on the walls of our room. But the staff were wonderful and the location very good for us.

I love this little hotel !!! I wanted something inexpensive and was surprised on how nice it is and how friendly and multilingual is the staff! Plus is walking distance from many monuments, etc. and short taxi ride (120 Pesos or $3) from Ricoleta, etc. I definitely recommend, can't beat that price! Would definitely come back !!!

The staff did their best. For the price and location, this place was great. It is not the Ritz nor J W. Marriott, way cheaper and I just needed a place to sleep. Front desk guys were hilarious. They don't speak much English, but funny bunch. Area of town is actually really safe, but staff locks the front door so you need to have them buzz you in. They serve breakfast onsite, $200, but better options across July 9.

Mold in bathrooms and showers
This hotel is awful. The room they initially gave me and the two others they showed me had black MOLD in the bathroom. I booked the hotel for 4 days but ended up staying 3 nights instead and went to another hotel as i could not take a shower in a bathroom and shower with mold. Mold is very unhealthy. They changed me to a "suite" that also had mold in the bathroom. This was a huge inconvenience for me (waste of time, not being able to shower, etc.). I saw three bathrooms with mold: the one they initially gave me, a second one they showed me and i declined to move to and 'the suite'. I am pretty sure every bathroom has mold as they don't clean them as they should.

Pay a bit extra for a nicer hotel.
So it's a great location and it's cheap and it's clean. The staff are nice and helpful. There is wifi available in the rooms. However, there was no natural daylight to my room or half the rooms on the floor. The floor and my room were horribly stuffy. The doors were thin and you could hear everything happening in the corridor. The room was barely big enough to swing a cat. The TV played one station. Look for something nicer. It shouldn't be hard and shouldn't cost much more.

Nostalgic Hotel in excellent Location
Whenever in Buenos Aires, I stay in the Gran Hotel de la Paix. It's central location is a big plus and the staff is extremely helpful. I love the nostalgic atmosphere of this hotel. Some of the rooms might need some renovation, but all of them are very clean and comfortable.

Long stay at the Gran Hotel de la Paix
The Hi-Fi does not works in the room and the management insists that everything is working fine and for several days was not working at all even in the reception and they had to take notes with pen and paper. The breakfast did not change in all the time I was there, for about 25 days. The big problem I think is the management that is not caring about the place, because the staff are quite good people.

Superb Location!
Right in the central of Buenos Aires, walkable to all the main locations of the city. A smart little hotel with wifi that only appeared to work in the reception area, which wasn't a problem. Staff we're friendly despite what I read in previous reports, would consider stopping here again if I ever find myself in Buenos Aires

Good hotel, somewhat noisy
This hotel is very well situated in the center of Buenos Aires. Easy to walk to restaurants and some major sites of the city. The hotel as a whole is well kept, but simple -- it is not a glamorous hotel. About the room: the walls and door were very thin so could hear when the next room went into the bathroom and when people were walking down the hall, etc. I often woke up at night because of other people coming and going, closing doors. Also since it is downtown there was a lot of noise throughout the day, even late at night, which also woke me up at night. When I booked the room the description said that there would be a safe, which I understood to be in the room. The safe is ONLY in the room if you book a SUITE. A regular room does not have a safe in the room, BUT you have access to a small lock box on the first floor of the hotel, towards the back. The room in which the box is located can only be opened by key card that is kept by the front desk people, but you keep the key to the box (naturally) and can access the room as often as you want during daytime hours (I believe it was from 8am to 10pm). Overall, I was happy with this hotel. Having a TV was nice and the included breakfast was also a plus!

Very good location. Decent hotel. A bit expensive for that quality is my feeling (a bit 'past its glory'). Skip the breakfast.

The room was a bit small for me. And the was bit softer than I prefer. There were scrabbled eggs for breakfast which i like. The beverages were a bit strange. That said the breakfast selection was better than some of the hotels I have stayed in in Buenos Aires.

The side street on which the hotel was located was a MESS. Although generally clean, the shower had a hard plastic "curtain' which was absolutely filthy! Breakfast had exactly the same choices everyday but was sufficient.

Estimados huéspedes, les puedo asegurar que si quieren pasar una muy mala experiencia reserven en este "hotel". 1-Las imágenes en las que promocionan las habitaciones no coinciden en absolutamente nada a lo que es en realidad, habitaciones sucias, no recogen la basura que dejan los huéspedes salientes, polvo en los muebles, los sanitarios llenos de pelos. 2- El aire acondicionado no funcionaba, la tapa del baño suelta, el seguro de la puerta principal quedaba abierto cuando salia uno de la habitación, quedando totalmente accesible a cualquier robo de artículos personales ya que cualquier persona podia ingresar a la habitación. (Habitación 212) 3-Nos dieron otra habitación en peores condiciones (312), aire acondicionado tampoco funcionaba, la puerta del baño no cerraba, presencia de cucarachas muertas, muebles llenos de polvo. Tuvimos que solicitar una devolución de dinero inmediatamente e irnos del lugar a buscar otro alojamiento. Sin duda, para lo que ofrecen y cobran se quedan muy cortos. Instalaciones pésimas y un servicio totalmente fraudulento y engañoso a lo que ofrecen.
