The Bar/Lounge at Ce Hotel de Diseno

"The hotel is lacking in amenities -- no pool, spa, or restaurant (though there is a 24-hour free breakfast, as well as a bar/cafe in the basement), but there are plenty of options right outside"

"Architect Ernesto Goransky imbued the two-year-old Recoleta hotel with an openness that’s visible everywhere, from the guest rooms’ floor-to-ceiling windows facing Plaza Rodríguez Peña and the impressive mansard-roofed Palacio Sarmiento—the home of the national education ministry—to the metal grill floor in the basement bar, below which one can see the building’s water tanks"

"Standard appointments include king beds, LCD TVs, microwave ovens oddly placed atop built-in desks, minibars, toasters, complimentary wireless high-speed Internet, safe boxes big enough to store laptops in, and air-conditioning"
