Lonely Planet "Ask any local to name the classiest, most traditional hotel in Buenos Aires, and they’ll surely name the Alvear Palace." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The Alvear Palace... is widely regarded as the best hotel in Buenos Aires."
Rough Guide "Once the choice of wealthy landowners and now the favourite of politicians and royalty, the Alvear is still BA’s luxury hotel par excellence, despite the trendy new upstarts."
Time Out "The Alvear, which fills half a block of BA's most exclusive street, Avenida Alvear, reeks of old-school class, and it's perhaps the grandest hotel in all of the capital." Full review
Star Service "A long-standing social pillar in this tony neighborhood of smart shops and embassies, this establishment continues as the choice for visiting heads of state." Full review

Request one of these units or one of the corner rooms on any floor, especially those that face Alvear Avenue and Ayacucho Street.
