I stayed in the Hilton Buenos Aires for two weeks for business, and really loved every minute of it. From the first minute I arrived, when they were able to give me a room despite me arriving at 7.40am, to the day I checked out when I was given a very late check out, the hotel provided everything I could need, and the staff were extremely polite and helpful.
Usually when I stay at a hotel, I don't really engage with the staff for that much, but staying for such a long time, it was really nice to have such attentive staff. Everyone was very nice and they all spoke flawless English, but I have to mention Rodrigo the porter and Vanesa from reception as being particularly helpful and friendly. Also the red-head at reception whose name I don't recall.
The rooms in the hotel are massive, really spacious with lots of areas to store luggage. the bed was extremely comfortable and there was a very big TV, although I didn't watch much as there was so much to see and do in Buenos Aires in the evening. The bathroom was one of the biggest I've ever seen in the hotel, with a ton of counter space, and a nice walk in shower, and a separate bath. All the furnishings seemed new and top quality, and as noted in another review, everything was set up very nicely for business too.
The health club had an extensive range of workout machines, and the pool was nice too, if very very cold. It's not a particularly big pool, maybe 10m long, although that's just an estimate. Usually I had it to myself which was great.
The location of the hotel is good - it's in probably the safest area of Buenos Aires, and is only a short walk from the centre, and the Retiro business district. As mentioned in other reviews there are a lot of swanky restaurants nearby.
A few very minor complaints - internet access was expensive - something like £70 for a week, which I thought was way too high. Laundry was also costly, but a necessary evil for me as I was there for so long.
Anyway, in short, this was without doubt one of the best, if not the best hotel I've ever stayed in. Buenos Aires is an incredible city, and the Hilton is an incredible hotel. I'd like to pack it up and take it with me everywhere I go!
