Gran Hotel Argentino in Buenos Aires is located on Avenidad 9 de Julio. The hotel was easy to find, being situated on the main thoroughfare. The avenue is really wide and tree-lined, making it a perfect one for a long walk. The hotel is within walking distance from some of the main landmarks of BA, namely Plaza de Mayo, Casa Rosada (presidential palace), Teatro Colon and the iconic Obelisco are within walking distance. There are several food joints nearby. All said and done, the hotel is in a good locality. I had chosen a single room and it was really small but clean. I needed to catch a flight at 5 AM and the receptionist arranged for a taxi. For a night, the hotel is really convenient.

“Great location but….”

We chose this hotel for its location as it’s right in the center and we could walk everywhere easily. Besides it’s just next to Carrefour supermarket opened 24h where you can get anything you need.

We chose this hotel for its location as it’s right in the center and we could walk everywhere easily. Besides it’s just next to Carrefour supermarket opened 24h where you can get anything you need. It’s a decent hotel for its price and service. We stayed 3 nights and the room was always cleaned everyday. However no fridge in the room and there were only 2 hangers in the bathroom and nowhere else in the room, and talking about bathroom.. it was terrible, the toilet didn’t flush well and even if we reported it everyday and they said they would send someone to check but I guess there was nothing to do about it. Also the 2 elevators were very small and slow so take it easy.. no rush.

“Cheap and modest”

Great location, Modest rooms, Small elevators, clean and staff tries hard to answer questions. Cabs out front door and u can walk anywhere in any direction. No frills but plenty of restaurants on same block. We used it before n after our Cruise

“Fine for a quick cheap stay”

This hotel is old and worn down. It’s worth nothing I booked a small budget twin room, the larger rooms could be nicer? The hotel was noisy, the paint was peeling, the room was very small, but the price was right. I arrived around 11am and was looking for a place to crash for a little bit for a 12 … more

This hotel is old and worn down. It’s worth nothing I booked a small budget twin room, the larger rooms could be nicer? The hotel was noisy, the paint was peeling, the room was very small, but the price was right. I arrived around 11am and was looking for a place to crash for a little bit for a 12 hour layover that would let me explore the city. The front desk checked me in right away with no questions asked which was great. However the front desk was staffed by someone who didn’t speak great English, so certainly not really a bilingual hotel and not sure I could have gotten a lot of help had I needed it. The hotel was cheap at 48 usd so it served what I wanted. I would definitely think of this hotel more as a 2 star motel than a 3 star hotel. Had more hostel like vibes than a hotel. Fine for a long layover like I had but I wouldn’t stay for an extended vacation unless you get a good deal and you’re on a tight budget. Location is great, close to tourist attractions and walking distance. You have to walk a bit to get to the famous pink building in the current TA cover photo so that is a bit misleading. Easy to flag a taxi outside the hotel which was a plus.
