Anyone familiar with the following hotels in BA

Regente Palace, Golden Tulip Savoy or the Best Western Art Deco?

My suggestion is that you contact RobertoBA, our man in Buenos Aires, at vdagp@yahoo.com.ar for his thoughts. He can tell you if he's familiar with them, if they're well-located, etc.

 

Is there a particular reason you don't want to stay at the very well-located, extremely gay-friendly, and very attractive (in the W hotels style) Howard Johnson's Plaza on Florida, which has been extensively discussed here? After you research it (at http://www.hojo.com -- click on Location, then Argentina, then B.A., then Howard Johnson's Plaza) ask Roberto to make reservations for you to get the best rate. Roberto is NOT a professional travel agent, he's a free-lance guide, but he's sent them so much business they've agreed to offer his referrals a better rate than the published ones.

 

Besides being gay friendly, the HoJo could not be more centrally located, within walking distance or short taxi rides to virtually every attraction. There's a wealth of shopping, restaurants and services available just outside the door (including a Citibank ATM a couple of blocks down Florida opposite the Galerias Pacífico shopping mall). The hotel also includes a generous breakfast buffet in your room rate, which is not that common in Argentina (usually you get just a cup of coffee and a couple of sweet mini-croissants). Also, the rooms are spacious, compared to the usual South American standard.

I agree with Tri. You should contact RobertoBA, I met him one week ago, and he was just arriving from the U.S. I was very lucky to contact him on my second visit to Bs.Aires,only for a week coming back to Paris where I live, and Roberto is very helpfull, and it is highly recommended.You may contact him at vdagp@yahoo.com.ar Regards Alain
