Concierge ""It's not just a hotel," the people who run this monstrous property in chic Puerto Madero Este... will tell you, "it's a universe." They may have a point."
Insight Guides "This landmark property, with its long, red-carpeted corridors, Miami Vice-style pool bar and molecular-cuisine restaurant... is a feast for the senses."
DK Eyewitness "Rooms are simply yet tastefully furnished Art Deco-style, with mirror-paneled cupboards and velvety carpets."
Rough Guide "Buenos Aires’ hotel for the in-crowd, this former grain-storage building has been given a serious Philippe Starck makeover and now has a belle époque jazz bar."
Time Out "Richly red and decadent, sleekly white and contemporary, and designed by Philippe Starck, this opulent, lavish lodging is cocooned in the shell of a red-brick former grain silo." Full review
Star Service "Three kilometers from the Microcentro area, this unusual and innovative property is the polar opposite of the Four Seasons and Alvear Palace, a contrast of new money versus old." Full review
BlackBook "High concept Phillipe Starck-designed rager in historic grain silo sits super pretty on the waterfront."

Frommer's "The intimate lobby, decorated in Italian marble, crystal, and Persian carpets, is a virtual revolving door for Argentine politicians, foreign diplomats, and business executives." Full review
Concierge "Marriott snapped up the legendary luxury establishment in 1994 and has astutely combined modern amenities... with classic, white-glove sophistication, all at pretty reasonable prices."

Be sure to log some time at the handsome Plaza Bar, a favorite Art-Deco haunt of B.A.'s movers and shakers.
Fodor's "The elegant lobby, crystal chandeliers, and swanky bar evoke Argentina's opulent, if distant, past. Rooms are comfortable and clean, if not particularly spacious." Full review

Make time to explore the myriad nooks and crannies of this grand old hotel.
DK Eyewitness "A stunning beaux-arts building on Plaza San Martín, this is one of the capital’s few grand old hotels."
Time Out "The location, overlooking Plaza San Martín, is arguably the best in the city, and the entire place oozes old-world charm." Full review
Star Service "Occupying a fine beaux-arts building designed by Alfred Zucker (who was also responsible for St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York), this 1909 monument is one of the most graceful..." Full review

Formerly a Marriott, this establishment attempts to reach the lofty heights of the Alvear Palace, but it misses the mark on service, as specific requests can sometimes be ignored.
Gayot "This landmark hotel boasts a prime spot next to Plaza San Martin in the thriving, downtown business district. "
